Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type
Meaning of FITT
frequency
The more physical activity we perform in a week means the more it improved our health condition and that is your
intensity
The more your movements increase and movements become more complex the more it circulates the heart muscle faster that is
time
The longer time you spent dancing the more calories you burn, the longer amount of cardio vascular activity you perform refers to
type
The choice of your dance based from your interest is what we call
Progression
As you continuously progress in your routine, you need to add the overload to ensure that there will be a development in your fitness level by adding the amount of frequency, intensity or time
Adaptation
In exercise we have what we call _________, we let our body adopt to the stress level that we apply during exercises, gradual increasing makes our body adopts to the changes.
Progressive Overload
it referes to gradually increasing the exercise work load a persons undertake in order to see continuous improvements. Our body adopts quickly to the loads through the workout routine we perform.
Specificity

it helps to increase heart rate, increase respiration and prepare the muscle. Doing this, a person will be able to move faster and more powerfully.
Specific warm up
ersons perform a movement similar to those they have to use in the session. (movement adaptation, movement conditioning or movement memory)
Cool down
This prevent injury and to prepare the person to the next session. It also prevents muscle soreness by removing the build-up of lactic acid accumulated during the training. It delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOM).
