and technical vocabulary. There are few if any errors in grammar, punctuation and spelling. Examiner s Comments Those candidates who gave a good in-depth explanation of an exercise programme that included all the training principles identified scored very well. The best candidates gave a wellstructured answer giving an example for each principle and developing each point to explain fully each training principle. These candidates made few grammatical or spelling mistakes and wrote clearly and fluently. Candidates who fared less well often misunderstood the training principles such as reversibility or left one or two of them out of their answer or did not relate the principles to an exercise programme.
