Frequency
Frequency is how often a person performs the
targeted health-related physical activity. For
each component of health-related fitness, a safe
frequency is three to five times a week.
Intensity
Intensity is how hard a person exercises during
a physical activity period. Intensity can be
measured in different ways, depending on the
related health-related component. For example,
monitoring heart rate is one way to gauge
intensity during aerobic endurance activities,
but gives no indication of intensity during
flexibility activities
Time
Time is the length of the physical activity. As
with the other aspects of the FITT principle,
time varies depending on the health-related
fitness component targeted. For example,
flexibility or stretching may take 10-30
seconds for each stretch, while the minimum
time for performing aerobic activity is 20
minutes of continuous activity.
Type
Type or specificity, refers to the specific
physical activity chosen to improve a
component of health-related fitness. For
example, an individual wishing to increase
arm strength must exercise the triceps and
biceps, while an individual wishing to
increase aerobic endurance needs to jog, run,
swim or perform some other aerobically
challenging activity.

In the FITT concept, the "frequency" principle refers to the number of times per week that a person engages in physical activity. The FITT acronym stands for Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type, and these four principles can be used to develop a safe and effective exercise program.
The frequency of exercise refers to how often a person engages in physical activity. It is generally recommended that adults engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week, or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity, or a combination of both. This can be achieved through activities such as brisk walking, cycling, swimming, or running. It is also recommended that adults engage in muscle-strengthening activities at least two days per week.

Frequency (reps, times per week)
Intensity (weight used, amount of rest between sets)
Time (length of workout)
Type (type of training ie. general physical adaptation, strength, power, sport-specific)
I would add another T, tempo (as the speed of the positive and negative phase of weight listing).
acronym FITT outlines the key components, or training guidelines, for an effective exercise program, and the initials F, I, T, T, stand for: Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type. Frequency: refers to the frequency of exercise undertaken or how often you exercise.

FITT fo the FITT principle stands for full integrated training technique?
False. Stands for Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type
What is the purpose of the FITT model?
FITT is an acronym that stands for Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type, each in relation to exercise. The FITT principle is a simple set of rules for getting the most out of an exercise program.
