The FITT principle is important when planning an exercise program as it enhances the training program as it is tailored for your age and fitness level. It also helps measure you progress and overall maximises results.
Blake's progress will be measured by comparing how far he throws the javelin over the six week program. The picture on the left shows the Target Heart Rate. In the FITT principle the aim of the workout is to target approx. 65%-85% maximum heart rate (which may decrease overtime due to the heart adapting to the conditions)
