Answer:
.Asher wishes to apply the FITT principles to create a cardiorespiratory fitness program. He first must determine the frequency of his workouts. Asher learns that the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends spending<u> 3-5-d</u><u>ays </u>per week on cardiorespiratory conditioning. He understands that the intensity level he chooses will also affect the number of days per week he will work out. Asher is currently not very fit and does not like to work out at high-intensity levels, so he chooses to work out at moderate-intensity levels. According to the ACSM, lower-intensity levels require workout frequency to be more than 3 days per week with<u> 5 days </u>per week recommended. Asher determines that he will measure his workout intensity by counting the number of heart <u>beats</u> for 10 seconds and then multiply by six to convert to the number of beats per minute to determine his <u> Rate.</u>Using the ACSM's training guidelines, Asher reads that moderate intensity indicates that his heart rate range should be at<u> 64-75% </u>of his heart rate maximum. He also understands that if he uses the talk test to measure his moderate intensity level, he should be able to speak in brief sentence and words. Asher decides that for optimal cardiorespiratory conditioning at moderate intensity his exercise time should be 30-60 minutes in duration. After determining the exercise frequency, intensity, and time, Asher is now left to determine exercise type.Through reading, he learns that for optimal motivation, training improvements, and injury prevention, he should choose activities that he enjoys
Explanation:
The acronym FITT. stands for frequency, Intensity, Time and Type of exercise. it is the guiding principle needed to acquire maximum benefits of training and exercise for Cardiovascular endurance. It provides guidelines to stay on track for fitness, specifically for the cardiovascular aerobic exercise of exercise plan.
Frequency - stands for number of times per week the individual is undergoing the exercise. Intensity-refers to the dept of performing the exercise,how tough it is to perform the exercise. Time-refers to how long it takes to perform each session of the exercise,Type-which stands the nature of the exercise undertaken, using treadmill or cycling..
Cardiorespiratory fitness program is an example of Aerobic exercise, undertaken to provide needed oxygen to the heart muscles for efficient functioning.it is therefore a good indicator of the physical fitness of an individual . It makes an individual to develop cardio-respiratory endurance which makes the individual to work or perform extensively for a longer period of time. The cardiorespiratory conditioning provides cardiac fitness against diseases,prevention of diseases.it combines both aerobic and anaerobic type of exercise.
