Explanation should include
- define frequency, intensity, time, type, and enjoyment (FITTE)
- address what constitutes safety and appropriateness for each of the concepts, such as
- frequency—allow for adequate physiological recovery time
- intensity—ensure adequate duration to accomplish the goal without premature failure or to improve aerobic or anaerobic energy systems
- time—perform the task to match the goal or to avoid premature failure or to see gains
- type—ensure that exercise choice is appropriate for accomplishing the goal (mode of exercise)
- enjoyment—attain pleasure from exercising
- explain the relationship among these five concepts.
Process/Skill Questions:
- What is the relationship among frequency, intensity, duration, and mode?
- What is a practical measure of each concept?
- What are examples of different levels of intensity? What goals would each level be trying to achieve?
