- 1Method of trainingIn method of training you can do two types Aerobic & Anaerobic
- 2Aerobic exercise, which is steady and not too fast, the heart is able to supply enough oxygen to the muscles. Aerobic training improves cardiovascular fitnessAnaerobic exercise is performed in short, fast bursts where the heart cannot supply enough oxygen to the muscles. Anaerobic training improves the ability of the muscles to work without enough oxygen when lactic acid is produced
- 3Circuit Traininginvolves performing a series of exercises in a special order called a circuit. Each activity takes place at a 'station'. It can be designed to improve speed, agility, coordination, balance and muscular endurance.
- 4Continuous Traininginvolves working for a sustained period of time without rest. It improves cardiovascular fitness
- 5Cross Traininginvolves using another sport or activity to improve your fitness. It happens when an athlete trains in a different environment. For example a volleyball player uses the power training for that sport to help with fitness for long jump
- 6Fartlek Training'speed play' training involves varying your speed and the type of terrain over which you run, walk, cycle or ski. It improves aerobic and anaerobic fitness.
- 7Weight Traininguses weights to provide resistance to the muscles. It improves muscular strength (high weight, low reps), muscular endurance (low weight, high reps, many sets) and power (medium weight and reps performed quickly)
- 8Interval Traininginvolves alternating between periods of hard exercise and rest. It improves speed and muscular endurance.
