To see similar effects of exercise as your body’s functional ability improves, you must continue to challenge yourself through progression. That being said, to continue to progress, you have to change (preferably increase) any or all of the components of volume. PROGRESSION: Progression means that as an exercise program continues, your body will be adjusting to each of the other components of the FITT principle (For example, you will be able to work out at an increased intensity). Frequency: refers to the frequency of exercise undertaken or how often you exercise. Despite this understanding, there is currently a lack of knowledge. The acronym FITT outlines the key components, or training guidelines, for an effective exercise program, and the initials F, I, T, T, stand for: Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. Physical activity is a multi-faceted behaviour comprised of several components: frequency, intensity, time and type (FITT). For example, if one day you are short on time, increasing intensity, or adding an extra session that week (increasing frequency) can make up for the decreased time, and keep you at your volume goal. The FITT Principle (or formula) is a great way of monitoring your exercise program. T: This is to be done over a 6 week time period so that the. Ultimately, the goal is to reach a certain volume of exercise each week and that can be changed by altering any of those components. T: The type of fitness that the FITT Principle is being added to is Cardiovascular Endurance.
VOLUME: Volume is the product of Frequency, Intensity and Time. The new VP stands for Volume and Progression. Understanding the concepts of Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type (FITT principle) will help you understand and maximize your training.
There is already a posting about the FITT Principle (posted in July… check it out!) so this posting is just adding on to that one. The FITT portion of the acronym means the same F is Frequency, I is Intensity, T is Time and T is Type.

In the latest version of the American College Sports Medicine’s (ACSM) Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription manual (9th edition) the FITT principle has been modified to be the FITT-VP principle.
