In FITT, what does T (fiTt) stand for?

• A. Temperature
• B. Time of workouts
• C. Training duration
• D. Target heart rate

Answer: (B)

In the FITT framework, Time refers to how long a workout lasts—the duration of each session or the total active time in that session. This helps determine the overall volume of exercise and supports goals like building endurance or improving calorie burn. For example, a 30-minute run or a 45-minute strength workout illustrates the Time component.

The other parts of FITT are Frequency (how often you exercise), Intensity (how hard you work, often guided by heart rate or effort), and Type (the kind of exercise). Temperature isn’t part of FITT, and Target heart rate is a way to gauge Intensity, not Time. Training duration is essentially another way to say Time, but the standard term used is Time.
