  • fartlek (intensity change), short and medium interval, HIIT, plyometrics
17
Q

  • Is a combination of strength and speed to create an explosive effort.
  • resistance, plyometrics
18
Q

  • Combines speed with flexibility and dynamic balance, allowing the performer to change direction with maximal speed and control
  • resistance, plyometrics, flexibility
19
Q

STEP 4: PLANNING A TRAINING SESSION
PHASE 3: COOL DOWN

A

PURPOSE:
- return to near resting state
- lower heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature (gradually)
- remove metabolic by-products (hydrogen ions and lactate)
- replenish oxygen/fuels
- minimise D.O.M.S
STRUCTURE:
- locomotion (aerobic machine)
- static/PNF stretching

20
Q

static and PNF stretches

A

STATIC: Hamstring, Quadriceps, Gastrocnemius, Groin, Gluteus Maximus stretches

PNF: Hamstring, Deltoid, Quadriceps, Triceps, Adductor, Pectoral Stretch

21
Q

resistance exercises

A
  • leg press, chest press, sit-ups, bicep curl, seated row, lat pull down, squats with weights
22
Q

plyometrics exercises

A
  • Partner Medicine Ball Slams, TRX Ski Jumps, Box Shuffle, Speed Ball, Resistance Band Kettlebell Swing (4kg), Box Jumps, Press Jacks (3 or 9kg), Bulgarian One Legged Jump Squat, Squat & Rope Slam, Partner Medicine Ball Sit-ups
23
Q

circuit exercises

A
  • Rower, Sit-ups, Bicep Curl, Tricep Dips, Upright Row, Dynamic Plank, Russian Twist with Medicine Ball, Skipping, Squat Jumps, Cross Trainer
24
Q

STEP 5: RECORD AND MONITOR

A
  • training data is recorded before, during and after each session
  • allows for ongoing analysis and adjustments
    TRAINING DIARIES/LOGS (QUAL)
  • ongoing entry of training info and data into personal diary/logbook
    DIGITAL METHODS (QUANT)
  • digital activity trackers and apps, info can be easily stored and shared
  • DEVICES: fitbit, garmin, apple watch
  • APPS: strava, run keeper, mapmyrun
  • TRACKS RESULTS AND IMPROVEMENTS, MENTAL HEALTH
  • SEE IF GETTING CLOSER TO GOAL AND IF THE PROGRAM IS WORKING
25
Q

STEP 6: EVALUATE TRAINING

A

ANALYSIS OF:
- training data collected
- results of fitness post testing
THIS WILL ALLOW THE ATHLETE/COACH TO EVALUATE THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM
- improved aerobic fitness, faster, more powerful, agile, sustained muscular efforts, better body composition?
- how and why has the program achieved the goal? justify (evidence).

26
Q

STEP 7: MODIFY/REDESIGN TRAINING

A
  • evaluation will direct where the training program needs to be modified
    PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD:
  • athlete needs to be increasingly challenged so adaptions occur
    OVERTRAINING:
  • look for signs of illness/injury/stress
    DIMINISHING RESULTS:
  • fitness gains may be harder to achieve
    VARIETY:
  • change things up to avoid boredom
27
Q

PHASE 2: CONDITIONING
SPEED

A
  • Where a performer moves as quickly as possible from point A to point B.
  • resistance, plyometrics, fartlek, medium and short interval
28
Q

REST DAYS!

A
  • MUST HAVE REST DAYS IN EVERY WEEK!!!
  • during exercise you will experience catabolic affect (decrease in physiological fitness)
  • exercise can cause muscle damage, loss of fluid and fuels
  • having rest days allows for anabolic return (increases physiological fitness)
  • rest needs to be accompanied with food and protein
  • if there are NO rest days it will increase the likelihood of overtraining (HAVING rest days decreases that)

PLYOMETRICS - rest days after plyometrics, due to being high intensity and explosive, can cause damage)

29
Q

frequency

A
  • providing enough stress for the body to adapt and allowing enough time for rebuild and repair to occur
  • IMPROVE: 3 TIMES A WEEK
  • MAINTAIN: 2 TIMES A WEEK
30
Q

intensity

A
  • how hard the athlete is working
  • allows the principal of overload to occur in athletes
31
Q

progression

A
  • progressive overload: the gradual increase of stress placed upon the body during exercise training (forced to adapt to a load that is beyond what is previously encountered)
    (one factor at a time, 10-20%, 20 to 25)
32
Q

specificity

A
  • specifically training for a particular sport
  • mirroring movement patterns, W/R ratio similar to comp, HR specific to game intensity
  • mimics/specific to physiology of the game
33
Q

individuality

A
  • individual athlete needs, everyone trains differently
  • gender, age, genetics, prior training, skills, motivation, injury
  • this is difficult to achieve in team training
34
Q

diminishing returns

A
  • cognitive learner experiences rapid improvement
  • eventually approaches genetic limit
  • the better you get the harder it becomes to improve
    (fitness improvements plateau)
35
Q

variety

A
  • changing environment and activity, change training method
  • helps remain mentally fresh and stay motivated
    (e.g instead of running continuous in the same spot chnage to fartlek or interval)
36
Q

maintenance

A
  • once certain fitness level is reached in can be maintained with reduction in training volume (x 2 a week training)
  • if you don’t maintain results may diminish (in off season athlete, should use this to avoid detraining)
37
Q

overtraining

A
  • can lead to mental/physical injury (to fix athletes must rest)
  • link to rest days
38
Q

detraining

A
  • gains disappear quickly, maintaining fitness all year round is easier that detraining and then having to retrain
