1. The 9 Principles of Exercise

2. From stronger muscles to enhanced flexibility,
improved cardiovascular health to better endurance and
lower risk of disease to boosted energy, physical
exercise offers many benefits to anyone who engrosses
in it. Regular exercise also helps in maintaining your
mental health by lessening your anxiety, stress and
inspiring your mood. Exercise more efficiently and
effectively by evaluating your habitual usage of the
nine principles of exercise.

3. 1. Regularity: The benefits of exercise only last when
you exercise regularly. This makes your body to adapt
to muscle stimulation.
To maintain effective results, you must exercise
persistently. Infrequent exercise can do more harm to
your body than good.
Also, you should implement regularity in your daily
work/rest patterns and eating.

4. 2. Overload: To provide your body with enough
motivation to cause alteration, you must reach towards
the boundaries of your extent of movement.
That means pushing yourself to more asserting levels
whenever you exercise by increasing resistance,
repetition, duration or intensity.
In order to improve your physical fitness and health,
ensure that the amount of work you perform during
any exercise exceeds the normal demands that you
place on the body.
If you are looking for some real results, you'll have to
put on some real effort.

5. 3. Progression: To be efficient, your exercise routine
needs to get progressively more demanding over time.
This means that both the amount and intensity of your
physical activity should be increased gradually.
It is important to maintain that all progressions are even
and small in nature to prevent overwhelming the body's
ability to restore.

6. 4. Specificity: This principle states that human body
will comply with whatever exercises you perform.
For example, if you only carryout bench presses, your
body will not accustom to sit-ups. Hence, it may be
beneficial for you to alter your training accordingly.
The adaptations your body will make are precise to the
types of exercise and stress to which it is exposed to.

7. 5. Variety: While selectivity is important, variety
helps to keep you excited and engaged about your
exercise regime.
Even the most perfect exercise program will become
sour after a while. Variety allows recovery and can
reduce risk of injury. Also, it helps to increase your
motivation and progress.

8. 6. Adaptation: It means that the body can adjust to any
burden as long as it is done in small increments.
The amount of momentum the body can make depends
on consistency of workouts, genetic makeup, adequate
rest and nutrition.
Thus, adaptation results in less muscle breakdown,
improved efficiency and less effort at that level.

9. 7. Recovery: Recovery periods allow your body to
comply to overload. Though every human is different,
most people need at least 2 days of recovery between
strenuous workouts.
While overload is crucial for prompting an adaptive
response within your body, overload without recovery
can result in diminution in fitness.

10. 8. Periodization: It describes the need to make long
term fitness plan if you want to work towards fitness-
related goals.
Make sure that your plan not only include periods of
high volume and high intensity training but also
periods of rest and recovery.

11. 9. Reversibility: Unfortunately, fitness cannot be
stored. If you take a sustained break from your regular
workouts, your body will begin to regress to its pre-
trained state.
A short break of a week or so will have an insignificant
effect on your fitness but lengthy breaks will result in a
steady decline of both cardiovascular fitness and
strength.
To maintain persistent fitness levels over time, you
must be rational in your training efforts.

12. Each principle allows us to assess some element of a
person's training. When you adopt the principles
properly, you are most likely to be successful. If you
want to improve any aspect of your physical
performance, you need to adhere to the exercise
principles. These principles can be thought of as a
catalog to success.
