The table shows the physiological adaptations an athlete has experienced as a result of an 8 -week training program.
\begin{array} {|l||l|}

Which of the following identifies the principles of training most likely to have been applied in the training program to produce these adaptations?
- Specificity, progressive overload, variety
- Variety, reversibility, warm up and cool down
- Specificity, progressive overload, training thresholds
- Warm up and cool down, progressive overload, training thresholds
