SPECIFICITY
Choosing your event:
Sports Day Specificity
Sports Days are coming so let’s look at how Sport IQ can help you select a winning team. Go
round each activity and find out what specific fitness requirements are needed to be
successful in each event. Your friends might not have any experience in the sports day
activities so try and find other sports where they require similar components of fitness to
match them up. Finally, suggest how you might train specifically for that component of
fitness to become sports day champion.
Remember – some events will need
more than just 1 component of fitness!
