2.

Having variation in your training program can help an athlete keep motivated & can prevent the athlete from plateauing in their fitness

Question 3
3.

Usually consists of light continuous activity which builds in intensity/aerobic activity to help warm up the body/ loads the blood with oxygen

Question 4
4.

How hard you are working - calculated a variety of ways such as from working heart rate and comparing to HR max, perceived exertion

Question 5
5.

Involves training the muscles, energy system and skills that you will need and use in your sport

Question 6
6.

A program needs to gradually increase in its demands beyond the current load in order to gain improvement

Question 7
7.

The number of trainings per week

Question 8
8.

Usually done as part of the warm-up and cool down phase & may increase flexibility/reduce injury

Question 9
9.

The organization of the training into distinct periods where specific components are done first before others in order to maximize the training effect

Question 10

If you don't train or cannot train at all, you will gradually lose any gains you made from your training

Question 11

Question 12
12.

Stretching of the body to help improve the range of movement/ can be dynamic, static, PNF

Question 13
