Extended answer questions: 1. Give definitions and examples for three of the additional training principles: (Individuality, diminishing returns, variety, detraining, maintenance, retraining).
Individuality – That refers to the training program that is designed for one’s own purpose.
E.g. making a program that is designed for you only.
Variety – having a variety involves different types of training; you’ll eventually get sick of one and might want to move onto another.
E.g. instead of putting weights on your arm, why not strengthen your legs.
Detraining – It happens when you stop training, when that happens you start to lose your sense of fitness.
E.g. Sitting at home for 2 weeks on the holiday doing nothing. 2. You are the coach of a 400 metre athlete who
