The constant exposure and thedaily interaction with the people and things around has a great impact on a person’spreference towards bodily execution and movement.The environment in which we live has a great influence on our level ofphysical activity. Many factors in our environment affect us. Obvious factors include theaccessibility of walking paths, cycling trails, and recreation facilities. Factors such astraffic,availability of public transportation,crime, andpollutionmay also have aneffect. Other environmental factors include oursocial environment, such assupport fromfamily and friends, and community spirit. It is possible to make changes in ourenvironment through campaigns to support active transportation, legislation for safercommunities, and the creation of new recreation.Activity 3:Lead me to where I am!Directions: Listed below are examples of physical activity barriers.Draw a lineconnecting its type whether PERSONAL or ENVIRONMENTAL barrier.Guide questions:1.

Cite some ways to overcome situations that hinders you to engage in physical activity. Get answer to your question and much more The FITT Principle of Physical ActivityFrequencyThe frequency of exercise refers to number of times a physical activity is done in eachweek. According to the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines, it isrecommended to exercise 3-5 days per week and for more optimal results, exercise canbe done in most days of the week with a combination of lightmoderate-vigorous activity.Intensity Upload your study docs or become a Course Hero member to access this document Upload your study docs or become a Course Hero member to access this document End of preview.

Participating in regular physical activity and exercise throughout on a weekly basis may positively impact an individual’s overall health, and improve various components of physical fitness. However, an individual’s specific physical fitness goals may not be achieved if their physical activity program is not designed with respect to major exercise training principles. Adherence to specific principles of exercise training may aid in the development of an intentional and successful physical activity regimen. The core training principles which will be subsequently discussed include:
Specificity Principle: Only the body parts, muscles, or systems involved in a workout will be experiencing training (American College of Sports Medicine, 2013). For example, upper body weight training will only facilitate improvements to muscles groups which were engaged (i.e. shoulders, arms, back muscles). Therefore, an individual must evaluate the specific type of workout that will provide the greatest likelihood of physical activity and fitness goal achievement. Comprehension check:Will doing push-ups improve one’s abdominal/core strength? Will swimming laps improve one’s time when biking 10 miles? Please provide your rationale for your answer. Overload Principle: Overload (i.e., “greater than normal workload or exertion”) is required to improve components of health-related fitness: cardiorespiratory (aerobic) endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance and flexibility. According to the principle of overload, an individual must work (“load”) the body using a step-by-step increase in physical activity duration, time, and/or intensity in order to facilitate optimal fitness improvements (American College of Sports Medicine, 2013). This step-by-step increase is often known as progression. Comprehension check:How might an individual utilize the Overload Principle to enhance cardiorespiratory (aerobic) endurance while training for a marathon? Hint: Exertion of “greater than normal load” by progressively increasing total weekly mileage during the training regimen.  Reversibility Principle: Individuals may lose the beneficial effects of training when participation in an exercise program is terminated (i.e., fitness gains are reversed; colloquially known as “use it or lose it”). Conversely, as an individual’s fitness level improves, s/he will be required to adjust the exercise program in order to procure further improvements (i.e., the previous work exerted to reach overload may no longer be sufficient) (American College of Sports Medicine, 2013a). Comprehension check:How might you alter or adjust your workout program to account for the possibility of reversibility? FITT Principle: The exercise training principle which outlines how an individual may design and monitor their individualized exercise program (American College of Sports Medicine, 2013).
Individual Differences Principle: All individuals are unique in their exercise programming needs. Personal, environmental, and behavioral factors should be considered and assessed when planning to engage in a physical fitness training regimen (American College of Sports Medicine, 2013). Comprehension check:What personal, environmental, and behavioral factors should you personally consider when planning your own workout program? Works CitedAmerican College of Sports Medicine. (2013). ACSM’s guidelines for exercise testing and prescription. Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. What principle of training is improved by increasing the frequency or intensity of the physical activity normally done?The principle of progression states that you should increase overload, which can be achieved by using FITT (frequency, intensity, time, and type) when your body adapts to its present routine.
What does overload principle mean?Overload, the second important principle, means that to improve any aspect of physical fitness the individual must continually increase the demands placed on the appropriate body systems. For example, to develop strength, progressively heavier objects must be lifted.
What principle of fitness training that includes the load can be increased?What is the Overload Principle? The overload principle is one of the seven big laws of fitness and training. Simply put, it says that you have to increase the intensity, duration, type, or time of a workout progressively in order to see adaptations.
What is the progression principle?Principle of progression is the idea that the value of a house increases when more valuable houses are built in the area. This contrasts with principle of regression, which is based on the concept that larger, more expensive houses lose value when they are near smaller, less valuable homes.
