Precontemplation, Contemplation, Preparation, Action, Maintenance - -What
are the 5 stages of behavioural change?
-Precontemplation - -In which stage of change would a PTS discuss health

-Purpose, Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type of exercise - -What does
PFITT stand for?
-Individualization - -This principle suggests that program design must
accommodate every client's individual needs

challenge their fitness to see significant improvement over time
-Recovery - -This principle becomes increasingly important as clients'
workouts become more successful, and should be a mandatory principle of
training
-Structural Tolerance - -This principle suggests that the strengthening of
joints will result in the ability to sustain subsequently greater stresses in
training and have greater resistance to injury

exerted on the walls of the arteries as the heart relaxes and fills again,
representing the lowest pressure in the arteries
