CONDITIONING TIPS
To improve fi tness and sports performance, physical conditioning is often
included in athletic sports and exercise training. Physical conditioning usually
has multiple components, including power, strength, speed, balance, agility,
coordination, and endurance.
CREATING A CONDITIONING PROGRAM
The fi rst step to improving fi tness or sports
performance through physical conditioning is to design
a program with the goals and needs of the sport in
mind. Not every sport or form of exercise requires each
component of physical conditioning in equal proportion,
if at all. The training programs of a sprinter differ
signifi cantly from those of a long-distance runner,
for example.
