Year 9 PASS - Training and Fitness Quiz

In Athlete 1’s Week 6 training program, jogging for 50 minutes at 80% MHR best demonstrates which FITT component?

• Frequency

• Intensity

• Time

• Type

For a 15-year-old with a maximum heart rate of 205 bpm, training at 70% MHR means a target heart rate of approximately:

• 120 bpm

• 144 bpm

• 180 bpm

• 200 bpm

Athlete 2’s program shows jogging for 25 minutes at 70% MHR each week. Which element of the FITT principle is missing for progression?

• Frequency

• Intensity

• Time

• All of the above

Which of the following is an example of “Type” in the FITT principle?

• Jogging, swimming, or circuit training

• 3 sessions per week

• 80% MHR

• 45 minutes

Increasing the duration of jogging from 25 minutes in Week 1 to 50 minutes in Week 6 shows:

• Progressive overload

• Specificity

• Reversibility

• Variety

Athlete 1’s use of jogging, circuit training, swimming, and touch football demonstrates:

• Reversibility

• Specificity

• Variety

• Progressive overload

If Athlete 2 continues the same 25-minute jog at 70% MHR every week, the biggest risk is:

• Overtraining

• Plateau

• Injury

• Reversibility

Reversibility means:

• Fitness gains are lost when training stops

• Training must match the event

• Increasing intensity over time

• Including variety

Which principle is shown when Athlete 1 moves from 25-minute jogs to 40-minute jogs at 80% MHR?

• Variety

• Specificity

• Progressive overload

• Safety

Athlete 1’s mix of endurance activities (jogging, cycling, swimming) prepares them for the 14 km run. This shows:

• Specificity

• Variety

• Overload

• Reversibility
