Explanation:

• Question 6: The overload principle can be applied through intensity, frequency, and duration. Progression is a related concept but not a direct way to apply the overload principle itself.
• Question 7: The principles of training include overload, individuality, and specificity. Progression is more of a concept within how training is structured rather than a core principle of training.
• Question 8: By definition, the overload principle is about increasing the work beyond normal levels.
• Question 9: A cool - down has multiple benefits including heart rate normalization, preventing soreness, increasing flexibility, and relaxing the body.
• Question 10: A warm - up helps avoid muscle strains and gradually increases heart rate. It is still needed even when in good physical shape.
