Physical training

Health, fitness and exercise are essential to the sporting and life performance of humans. The relationship between the three is cyclical.

Training means exercising regularly to improve skills and fitness. The training that an athlete does must be appropriate for that person and their sport in order to get the most out of their training.

There are a number of different ways of training that can improve health and fitness necessary for a range of activities. Warming up and cooling down are essential parts of a training session.

Physical activity comes with a risk of injury, but this risk can be minimised by good practice and knowledge of potential hazards.
