To improve fitness, a person needs to reach an appropriate "overload," or extra physical demand on the body. A good way to achieve this is to utilize the FITT principle when designing an exercise program. Choose the statement below that correctly describes the FITT principle. Time of activity refers to the time of day in which the activity session occurs, like morning versus evening. Type of activity refers to the range of activities (such as running for cardiorespiratory fitness and yoga for flexibility) a person can participate in to promote health and fitness. The "I" in FITT stands for "interval" training or alternating high-intensity periods with rest or low-intensity periods during the workout. Frequency refers to the number of times an activity is included in a workout.
