aerobic endurance training methods Flashcards
name the 4 training methods
continuous
fartlek
interval
circuit
what are the advantages and disadvantages of continuous training
advantages- no equipment needed easy to organise and carry out training can be sport specific good for building aerobic endurance. disadvantages- long distance training can be boring risk of injury if running on hard surface only develops aerobic endurance not anaerobic.
what are the advantages and disadvantages of fartlek training
advantages-
can be sport specific
easy to organise and carry out
performer can control the intensity of training
adds variety to training
disadvantages-
need to monitor training intensity to make sure performer keeps up intensity
performer needs good self discipline to keep up intensity and to stick to the rest periods
what are the advantages and disadvantages of interval training
advantages- easy to measure progress can mix aerobic and anaerobic exercise easy to see when performer isn't trying easy to organise and carry out disadvantages- can become boring difficult to keep going for long periods requires a certain level of fitness to work at high intensity.
what are the advantages and disadvantages of circuit training
advantages-
develops strength and endurance
can be adjusted to suit age,fitness and heath
exercises are simple enough t make you feel achievement
wide range of exercise
disadvantages-
require specialised equipment
a lot of space is needed to set up equipment
can only be conducted where appropriate
requires appropriate heath and safety

how can the FITT principle be applied to continuous training
Frequency- train more times a week
Intensity- try do things faster
Time-train for longer times
Type- change the type of training each week
how can the FITT principle be applied to fartlek training
Frequency- do more laps
Intensity- more sprints
Time- train for longer times
Type- change the gradient
how can the FITT principle be applied to interval training
Frequency- do it more times a week
Intensity- sprint more
Time- train for longer times with shorter time for rest
Type- different types of training
how can the FITT principle be applied to circuit training
Frequency- make the circuit longer
Intensity- make them harder each time
Time- do it more times a week.
Type- change the circuit so you dont the same one over and over.
