Period 5 Principles of P.E. blog # 5

What is the FITT Principle?
The FITT Principle (or formula) is a great way of monitoring your exercise program. The acronym FITT outlines the key components of an effective exercise program, and the initials F, I, T, T, stand for:
F - Frequency- (how often)5 to 6 times per week
I - Intensity - (how hard)Moderate to high
T - Time - (how long)Anywhere from 15 to 40 minutes
T – Type - (what kind)Just about anything that involves movement

Use the FITT principle to assess your current fitness program or lack thereof. List for me:
1. How often you workout?
2. How hard you are working out?
3. How long your workouts last?
4. What kinds of movement are you doing?

1.) Once a week? If I'm not too lazy.
2.) Not that hard. Maybe medium or less.
3.) Probably less than half an hour. I can work on my time. 31 minutes sounds good.
4.) Running movements and lifting dumbbells that weigh 2 pounds each movements.
