The FITT principal (elements of fitness) stands for:
Front, Inside, Top, and Total
Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type
Frequently, Intermittently, Totally, and Truly
None of these
To improve muscular strength, the best plan is:
Stretching at least 3 times per week
Strength training at least 3 times per week
50 meter sprints at least 3 times per week
None of these will improve muscular strength
To improve flexibility, the best plan is:
Lifting weights at least 3 times per week
Following MyPlate recommendations and eating a balanced diet.
Stretching, including static and dynamic stretching
None of these will improve flexibility
This energy is stored in our cells and is called
Oxidative triphosphate (OTP)
adenosine criphosphate (ATC).
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Anaerobic means
without oxygen (ATP – PC and Lactic acid systems)
"with oxygen", and refers to the use of oxygen in the body's energy generating process (Aerobic energy system).
Aerobic means

"with oxygen", and refers to the use of oxygen in the body's energy generating process (Aerobic energy system).
How long does the ATP-CP system last?
2mins+ Long term energy
0 seconds up to 2 minutes Short term high intensity
Immediate high intensity (0-10seconds)
How long does the Anaerobic system last?
2mins+ Long term energy
0 seconds up to 2 minutes Short term high intensity
Immediate high intensity (0-10seconds)
How does our body know when to work anaerobically rather than aerobically?
When the heart and lungs cannot deliver enough oxygen to the muscles to produce energy aerobically, the body switches to anaerobic energy production.
When you stop heavy breathing the body switches.
When the energy system is depleted because of the intensity and duration of the activity.
There is an overlap of both aerobic and anaerobic systems they work and switch on and off when required.
