Question

Describe the principle of overload, and explain how frequency, intensity, time, and type can help you safely apply overload to your favorite workout

Answer 1

The Overload Principle is focused on sports fitness training.

It states that athletes must work harder than they usually workout as their bodies adjust themselves to higher workouts.

To safely apply Overload to your workout you should monitor the intensity of training as you increase it gradually and progressively.

You should choose and plan over one type of workout to apply Overload on it.

All other training activities should be coordinated and adjusted preventing other factors that influence overloading in duration and volume of training.
