Students really struggled with being able to apply intensity. Only 37% of the time did the students correctly answer questions on intensity. Specifically they did not know that the way you feel can be a measure of how intense you are doing something. This data shows me that I need to spend more time on teaching intensity and what it is and what it feels like.
The next question asked students to mark all answers that gave an example of what is time in the F.I.T.T. principle. Time has to do with the amount of time that is spent doing exercise an exercise or the total amount of time that is spent in a given time period.
