Question

In the fitt principle, the choice of swimming instead of walking would be an example of _____. in the fitt principle, the choice of swimming instead of walking would be an example of _____. time intensity frequency type

Answer 1

swimming instead of walking would be an example of TYPE in the FITT principle.

This can be easily determined if you keep the below explanation in mind about the FITT cycle:

Frequency: This is how often we train. How often our sessions are planned (e.g. in a month, week etc.)

Intensity: this is how hard you work out.  

Time: How long your training sessions are or length of the activities that take place during the training session.

Type: This is the training method e.g. weight training, flexibility, sprint etc.  

So if a person is swimming instead of walking he/she is changing the exercise/ training method, whilst all other factors in the FITT cycle remained the same.

Answer 2

The answer is Type.

In the fitt principle, the choice of swimming instead of walking would be an example of Type. Fitt principle is a set of rules that must be adhered to in order to benefit from any form of fitness training program. These rules relate to the Frequency, Intensity, Type and Time (FITT) of exercise. The type of exercise that is done is the last part of the Fitt principle.
