Question 7

Periodization

Answer 7

Training plan aimed at reaching best possible performance for specific timeframe or event achieved by changing exercise variables when appropriate

Question 8

Linear Periodization

Answer 8

Increasing the intensity of the training load while decreasing volume over a set period of time (as weight goes up reps go down) OPT model is this

Question 9

Undulating Periodization

Answer 9

Uses changes in volume, intensity, & exercise selection to provide loading differences on a daily or weekly basis
