Learning Activities
1. Using the scenario provided, explain how the FITT principles can be applied to improve training and performance. Consider:
a. How can Ewan apply the FITT principles to his training to improve his performance?
b. Justify your response.
Scenario: Ewan is 18 years old and has a 400m track race in 12 weeks time.
He currently trains for 30 minutes twice a week at the athletics track.
2. Reflect on a personal fitness goal you have and explain how you could use the FITT principle to develop a training program.
3. Create a summary table of how the FITT principles can be applied to developing both an aerobic and anaerobic training program.
4. For a sport/athlete of your choice, use the FITT principles to design an aerobic or anaerobic training program.
5. Design an aerobic training session based on FITT for the sport of soccer, netball or touch football.
