WHAT IS F.I.T.T? HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=YAFB0VXOPMC
SOOOO FITT IS A PRINCIPLE OR METHOD THAT MUST BE COMBINED WITH OUR HEALTH RELATED COMPONENTS OF FITNESS TO MAKE A SUCCESSFUL FITNESS PROGRAM. MUCH LIKE S.M.A.R.T GOAL SETTING, APPLYING THE F.I.T.T PRINCIPLE HELPS US TO MAKE A PLAN THAT WILL WORK.
In This Unit, We Examine The Relationship Between Frequency, Intensity Type And Time (FITT). FREQUENCY: refers to the number of times a person would need to participate in an activity to improve their fitness. INTENSITY: Refers to how hard a person needs to work (moderate to vigorous) to improve their fitness. TIME: Refers to the amount of time (minutes) a person needs to spend doing the activity to improve their fitness. TYPE: Refers to the type of activity you must complete to develop a specific health-related fitness component.

F.I.T.T F= FREQUENCY HOW OFTEN YOU PLAN ON EXERCISING I = INTENSITY HOW DIFFICULT (EFFORT) YOU PLAN ON EXERCISING T= TIME HOW MANY MINUTES YOU PLAN ON EXERCISING T= TYPE WHICH STYLE/TYPE OF EXERCISES DO YOU PLAN ON DOING (I.E STRETCHING, LUNGES, 2KM RUN) COMPONENTS OF FITNESS

In groups of 3-4 discuss these questions 1.What diseases can be prevented by participating in regular cardiovascular fitness activities. 2. Circle the following activities that develop cardiovascular fitness. swimming, netball, AFL, bike riding, tennis, long jump, video games, weightlifting 3. Explain how to improve your flexibility. 4. What are some benefits of having good flexibility.
QUESTIONS CONTINUED 5. Identify the benefits of having good muscular endurance. 6.Explain how to improve your muscle endurance. 7. Identify benefits of having good muscular strength. 8. Explain how to improve your muscle strength.
Complete the table below to demonstrate how the FITT principle is applied to develop health-related fitness components. Frequency (Times per week) (Moderate or vigorous) Intensity Type (HRCF) Time (Minutes) 3-6 Moderate (50 70% max HR) 20-60 minutes Cardiovascular low *20 minutes 3-5 Flexibility vigorous *20-45minutes 3-4 Muscular strength Muscular endurance vigorous *45-60 minutes 3-5
How do we know what is low/moderate/vigorous intensity?? For us to work this out, we must know how to accurately measure our heart rate and understand what percentages mean and what our maximum heart rate is Muscular strength/endurance examples
