26
Q

How do you achieve an optimum performance

A

You need a balance between an adequate volume & intensity of exercise, and reductions in volume, intensity or both

27
Q

What are the two program types in the competitive period

A

Peaking program
Maintenance program

28
Q

For which sports would you use a peaking program

A

For sports with competition periods lasting 1 or 2 weeks
Sprinting

29
Q

For which sports would you use a maintenance program

A

For sports with competition periods lasting many months
ex: team sports

30
Q

When is the second transition period

A

Between the competitive period and the next macrocycle’s preparatory period or next annual training plan

31
Q

What is the second transition period sometimes referred to as

A

Active rest or restoration period

32
Q

How long does the second transition period typically last

A

1 to 4 weeks

33
Q

What is the recommended length for the second transition period

A

4 week max unless injured

34
Q

What does the second transition period focus on

A

unstructured, non-sport-specific recreational activities performed at low intensities with low volumes

35
Q

T/F the second transition period always involves resistance training

A

False, it may not involve resistance training

36
Q

What does the second transition period allow

A

It allows for injury rehab & physical & mental rest

37
Q

What is an unloading week

A

a 1 week break between phases or periods

38
Q

What are the two purposes of an unloading week?

A
  • To prepare the body for the uncreased demand for the next phase
  • It is believed that significantly reducing the volume & load assignments will make the athlete less susceptible to overtraining symptoms
39
Q

What does an annual schedule include in periodization periods

A

1) off-season
2) preseason
3) in-season
4) post-season

40
Q

What is the off-season considered as

A

Should be considered the preparatory period

41
Q

How long does the off-season last

A

Typically form the end of the postseason to the beginning of the preseason

42
Q

What two phases is the off season subdivided into

A

General phase
Specific preparatory phase

43
Q

When does the pre-season occur

A

after the completion of the off-season

44
Q

What does the pre-season lead into?

A

The first major competition

45
Q

Which period occurs in the preseason

A

first transition period (strength/power phase of RT)

46
Q

How long does the pre-season usually last

A

1 month - 6 weeks

47
Q

What is included in the in-season

A

contains all of the contests scheduled for that year
Includes any tournament games

48
Q

How many mesocycles are in the in-season

Q

When does post-season begin

A

After the final contest

51
Q

Which period occurs in the postseason

A

The second transition period

52
Q

What type of rest happens in the post season

A

Active or relative rest before starting next year’s off-season or preparatory period

53
Q

What is the traditional periodization model

A

The classic linear periodization model

A

True

55
Q

What is the most common resistance training periodized model used for strength and power

A

The classic linear periodization model
