Q

Training goals for sprinting

A
  • minimize braking forces at ground contact by maximizing backward velocity of leg and foot at touchdown and planting foot at center of gravity
  • emphasize brief ground support times as a means of achieving rapid stride rate
  • emphasize functional training of hamstrings

Q

Backpedaling technique

A
  • short stride length,
  • greater stride frequency,
  • longer support time,
  • later application of peak GRF,
  • greater hip angular velocity,
  • smaller ROM at hip, knee, and ankle

Q

Sprint assistance

A

Overspeed effect i.e. gravity assisted running, high-speed towing (stretch cord)
- improve stride rate, reduce time/energy needed to accelerate

19
Q

How can you progressively develop and evaluate and athletes braking mechanics?

A
  1. Athlete runs 1/2 (2nd gear) speed and stops in 3 steps
  2. Athlete runs 3/4 (3rd gear) speed and stops in 5 steps
  3. Athletes runs full (4th gear) speed and stops in 7 steps
20
Q

What is the primary method for developing speed and agility?

A

Executing sound movement technique

21
Q

What are the two secondary methods for developing speed and agility?

A

speed resistance and speed assistance

22
Q

What are the 3 tertiary methods for developing speed and agility?

A

Mobility, strength, and speed endurance

23
Q

What is the purpose of speed endurance training?

A

enhance fatigue resistance and tolerance

24
Q

What 3 ways does sprint training effect muscle physiology?

A

hypertrophy (esp. in fast twitch fibers), increased development of sarcoplasmic reticulum, and shifts of both type 1 and 2x fibers to type 2a.

25
Q

What are the 3 methods for speed-endurance development?

A
  • competitive trial method
  • distance - duration method
  • interval
26
Q

What are the 3 sub categories of the competitive - trial method? What are the intensity and duration?

A

Supramaximal - I: greater than competition D: less than competition
Maximal - I: equal or less than competition D: equal to competition
Submaximal training - I: less than competition D: greater than competition

27
Q

What are the 3 subcategories of of the distance - duration method?

A

Continuous training - 70-95% competitive power
Variable training - structured changes in FTT
Fartlek training - unstructured changes in FITT

28
Q

What are the two subcategories of interval method?

A

Extensive training and Intensive training
I: low to medium (60-80%)
T: short-medium
Volume: large
Rest: short relief intervals between reps ( <1/3 time for full recovery) until HR is at 125-130 BPM for advanced athletes (about 45-90 sec) and 110-120 BPM for beginner (about 60-120 sec)

29
Q

What is the Intensity, Time, volume, and rest period between reps for extensive interval training?

A

I: low to medium (60-80%)
T: short-medium
Volume: large
Rest: short relief intervals between reps ( <1/3 time for full recovery) until HR is at 125-130 BPM for advanced athletes (about 45-90 sec) and 110-120 BPM for beginner (about 60-120 sec)

30
Q

What is the Intensity, Time, volume, and rest period between reps for intensive interval training?

A

I: high (80-90%)
T: short
Volume: small
Rest: longer than extensive but incomplete, allowing HR to recover to 110-120 bpm 90 to 180 sec for advanced athlete and 120-240 sec for beginner

31
Q

What is the Intensity, Time, volume, and rest period between reps for repetition training?

A

I: very high (90-100%)
T: very short - medium
Volume: very small
