c. Rest and recovery
d. Specificity
Lesson Proper
Review.
Individuality
Every person is unique, and every person reacts to training differently. While some people can take larger
training loads, others may do better with higher intensities. This depends on a number of variables,
including genetics, the predominant muscle fiber types in your body, other aspects of your life, and your
mental health.
Specificity
According to the Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands (SAID) theory, the body will gradually
become better at performing a particular workout. Exercise is stress, and since the body adapts to stress
well, increasing your sporting prowess is extremely particular.
Progression
The most common and practical way of progression is weight gain; but progression can also be achieved
through varying exercise frequency, quantity, complexity, or any combination of these. The training load
must be raised above the appropriate work on a regular basis.
Overload
One of the seven fundamental rules of training and fitness is the overload principle. Simply defined, it
states that in order to see adaptations in your muscles and neural system following a low-intensity
activity, you must gradually increase the intensity, duration, kind, or time of a workout.
Adaptation
Over time, the body adjusts to a set degree of exercise, which results in less effort and less use of the
muscles. To boost efficiency and enhance performance, you must alter the stimulus by exercising harder
or for a longer period of time.
Recovery
Without rest and recovery time, the body cannot heal itself. To prevent your body from overusing itself,
you must perform several sessions in a single day and give yourself time to recover after a lengthy season.
According to scientists, your body requires more sleep to recover the more you train.
Reversibility
When physical demands are reduced, fitness gains are lost. By carrying out a maintenance or decreased
exercise program, you can reduce this rate of loss. It's interesting to note that even when training is
stopped, the strength levels that follow are rarely lower than they were before.
