Edexcel GCSE PE - Principles of training

Progressive overload is best described as

• Gradually increasing the amount of work in training so that fitness gains occur.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the activity.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the athlete/person.

• Doing to much training

Specificity is best described as

• Gradually increasing the amount of work in training so that fitness gains occur.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the activity.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the athlete/person.

• Doing to much training

Individual needs is best described as

• Gradually increasing the amount of work in training so that fitness gains occur.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the activity.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the athlete/person.

• Doing to much training

Overtraining is best described as

• Gradually increasing the amount of work in training so that fitness gains occur.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the activity.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the athlete/person.

• Doing to much training

Reversibility is best described as

• how often you train

• The particular requirements of the activity.

• Matching the training to the requirements of the athlete/person.

• Gradually losing fitness instead of progressing or remaining at the current level.

Frequency is best described as

• how often you train

• The particular requirements of the activity.

• how long you train

• Gradually losing fitness instead of progressing or remaining at the current level.

Time is best described as

• how often you train

• The particular requirements of the activity.

• how long you train

• Gradually losing fitness instead of progressing or remaining at the current level.

Type is best described as

• how often you train

• Match the type of training with activity.

• how long you train

• Gradually losing fitness instead of progressing or remaining at the current level.

Intensity is best described as

• how often you train

• Match the type of training with activity.

• how long you train

• how hard you train
