Lecture 10: Resistance training principles Flashcards
8 training principles of resistance training
- Individualization
- Specificity
- Progressive overload
- Recovery
- Structural tolerance
- Dynamic correspondance
- Reversibility
- Maintenance
Individualization
Exercise selection, sets, reps and tempo should all be based on the training age, injury history and movement patterns of your client
Thinks to take in to account for individualization
Training goals
Training age
FMS score
Testing scores
Injury history
Equipment/facilities available
Time available in a week
Example of individualization
Reactive strength index (RSI)
Reactive strength index (RSI)
Jump height divided by ground contact time
Used to test speed and power athletes
Reactive strength
Athletes’ ability to change quickly from an eccentric to a concentric contraction (fast SSC)
Specificity
Trying to meet needs of the sport itself
Three main categories of specificity
- Bioenergetics
- Biodynamics
- Biomotor
Bioenergetics
What metabolic pathway is involved in their sport?
ie. ATP-PC, anaerobic glycolysis, aerobic
Biodynamics
Classification of exercises
ie. general to specific
Biomotor
Skills needed
ie. strength, power, stamina, speed
Classification of exercises (specificity -biodynamics)
- General preparatory exercises
- Specific preparatory exercises
- Specific development exercises
- Competitive exercise
- Event (actual sport)
**increases specificity as you move up pyramid
Types of progressive overload
- ROM
- Efficiency
- Volume
- Intensity of load
- Density
- Intensity of effort
- Frequency
- Increased relative volume
Recovery: Actualization of training model
General adaptive syndrome
1. Training overload
2. Acute fatigue
3. Functional overreaching
4. Nonfunctional overreaching
5. Overtraining syndrome
General adaptive syndrome phases
- Alarm phase
- Resistance phase
- Super compensation
- Overtraining phase
