Shannon W Unit 32: Instructing physical activity and exercise
P1

Task 1 (P1)


In this assignment I will be describing the principals of fitness training. To begin with, I will be
describing the components of fitness. The components of fitness are; speed, agility, muscular
strength, muscular endurance, balance and aerobic endurance.
The first component of fitness is speed. Speed is the maximum rate in which an individual can
perform a movement or cover a distance in a period of time.
The second component is agility and it is the ability to quickly change body composition or direction
of the body. Agility allows an individual to change direction at speed or gain an advantage when
beginning to run.
The third component is muscular strength and it is the extent to which muscles can exert force by
contracting against resistance.
The forth component of fitness is muscular endurance which is the ability of a muscle or muscular
group to under-go repeated contractions avoiding fatigue.
The fifth component is balance, and balance is the ability to either stay upright or stay in control of
the body movements
The sixth component of fitness is aerobic endurance which is the ability to exercise continuously for
extended periods of time without becoming tired of fatigued. (Stamina.)
The seventh component is flexibility is defined as the range of motion of your joints or the ability of
your joints to move freely. Flexibility is often an overlooked component of fitness.
The eight component of fitness is body composition. This is the percentage of fat, water, bone and
muscle. It also determines leanness. The most common way to measure body composition is using
skin callipers.




FITT Principle
FITT, is a mnemonic which stands for frequency, intensity, time and type. This principle can be used
to help you create a more effective work out plan.
Frequency- How often an individual should exercise. Frequency can often depend on a variety of
factors which can include; an individual’s fitness level, exercise goals, the type of workout and how
hard they’re working.
Intensity- How hard an individual works during exercise.
Time- This is the duration of the exercise. This can depend on an individual’s fitness level and the
type of workout they’re doing.
Type- This is the type of training an individual performs in order to avoid overuse injuries or weight
loss plateaus. The most common examples of types of training is HIIT and LISS.
High-intensity interval-training (HIIT): short periods of intense aerobic exercise with less intense
recovery periods until too exhausted to continue.
