Training Is Specific

Nov 03, 2008 @ 01:21 pm by wayne

Just because you have a certain level of fitness when you do your normal physical training, it does not necessarily mean that you will be able to demonstrate a similar level of fitness when you do another activity. For example, if you normally cycle for your fitness, you train your body to be efficient and effective when you are on a cycle but when you need to run (unless you also run regularly,) you may find that your cycling fitness does not cross over to the same level.

This does not mean that your training is totally wasted on another activity, only that your body has adapted to a certain movement pattern and set of demands. Once you train the new movement patterns, you will find that your previous training has paid off.
