Question

select the correct answer. andrew designed a personal fitness program two months ago. now his workout seems too easy, and he is bored and no longer progressing. which training principle should andrew take into consideration?
a. balance
b. individualization
c. recovery
d. variation

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A (balance): Focuses on equalizing different aspects (e.g., muscle groups), not relevant to making workouts challenging or interesting again.
• Option B (individualization): About tailoring to personal needs, but Andrew's issue is monotony/ease, not a mismatch with personal factors.
• Option C (recovery): Related to rest and recuperation, not addressing workout difficulty or boredom.
• Option D (variation): Involves changing workouts (exercises, intensity, etc.) to prevent boredom, increase challenge, and promote progress. Since Andrew’s workout is too easy and he’s bored, variation is the right principle.

Answer:

D. variation
