The training principle of Specificity states that
exercising a certain body part or practicing a particular skill primary
develops that part or skill. Ensuring that exercise programs have specific
goals would make training a lot easier and improvements more noticeable.
If you
want to be a good runner, you have to incorporate running into your training
program. If you want to beat that time in swimming, you have to incorporate
sprints in your swim training. You are not only training your muscles for the
activity, you also need your brain to be trained enough for the exact activity
or skill that you are going to perform. Specificity principle reminds and
ensures an individual to assign activities that would help meet specific goals.
