Background Information
The FITT Principle
A well-designed personal physical activity plan will outline how often (frequency), how long (time), and
how hard (intensity) a person exercises, and what kinds of exercises (type) are selected.
The exercise frequency, intensity, time, and type (FITT principle) are key components of any fitness
plan or routine. An individual’s goals, present fitness level, age, health, skills, interest, and availability
of time are among the factors to consider in developing a personal physical activity plan.
In particular, every plan should have a schedule that progresses over time. Progression can take the
form of changes in any of the FITT components, but not all at once.
For example, an athlete training for high-level competition would follow a different program than would
a person whose goals are to develop good health from a sedentary start.
Regardless of the specific goals, both programs would be based upon the elements of the FITT
principle.
Initially, a personal physical activity plan does not need to include all the health-related fitness
components.
The choice of which components to focus on initially should be based upon the likelihood of adopting
the new behavior and a consideration of whether the goals are SMART (specific, measurable,
attainable, realistic, and time framed.
The keys to selecting the right kinds of exercises for developing and
maintaining each of the basic components of fitness are found in the
principles of specificity, overload, reversibility, progression,
diminishing returns, and individual differences.

How to Set FITT Goals
The best way is to first know your thresholds, or the limits of
what you can do per type of activity. Check for personal limits in
frequency, intensity, time and type of activity. From there, one can
set targets or increases in performance.

Activity 1: My Personal Physical Activity Plan
After going through the discussion, you are able to create or provide your own physical activity
plan. While doing your activity, you will realize that, in order to be physically fit there are principles and
guidelines to follow.
You will make this activity in a short bond paper.
PROCESS QUESTIONS:
1. Why is it important to be physically fit and how can we stay fit?
2. What are the benefits of being physically active?
3. Is there a need to follow guidelines and principles? Why? Why not?
4. If you were a fitness instructor which of the following principles you will recommend?

After this lesson, it is about time to reflect on your own
attitude and belief, then make a resolution or stand on your lifestyle
choice and fitness. Write your answer on the box.
