Physical Training

From the Paper:

"An abundance of data suggest that regular physical activity and improved fitness results in many health benefits. While it is true that everyone engages in a certain amount of such activity, physical training programs can also have many positive effects. A number of considerations are important to every training program. Some of these include training principles, training's physiologic consequences, different training methods, and the various factors involved in initiating an exercise program.

Perhaps the earliest known law of physical training was the overload principle (6:170). Lange first described this principle in 1919. He noted that "only when a muscle performs with greatest power, i.e., through the overcoming of greater resistance in a unit of time than before, would its functional cross section need to increase" (6:170)."
