Principles Of Training Flashcards
What are the principles of training
Principles of training are Moderation Reversibility Specificity Variation Overload Progression Periodisation Tests Warm up Cool down
What is moderation
Moderation is that training must be appropriate for performer to adapt while maintaining a healthy balanced lifestyle. Training must include overload but not too intense or frequent to cause injury.
What is reversibility
Reversibility is training must be maintained to prevent deterioration in performance.
What is specificity
Specificity is that training should be relevant and appropriate for individual, sport, energy system, muscle fibre type and movement pattern.
What is variation
Variation is that training includes a range of exercises and activities to prevent boredom, maintain motivation and limit overuse injuries.
What is overload
Overload is training intensity should be above performers comfort zone to place stress on body to force adaptations.
What are principles of overload
Principles of overload are FITT frequency how often you train Intensity how hard you work Time how long you work Type what type of training you perform
What is progression
Progression is that training demand should gradually increase over time to ensure performer adapts and improves.
What is acronym for principles of training
Acronym is M R S V O P P Tests W Cs
What are tests used for
Tests are used to determine training intensity and tests will be used to monitor progress.
Why is warm up important
Warm up is important because training must begin with warm up to prepare body for exercise and reduce injury risk.
Why is cool down important
Cool down is important because training must end with cool down to gradually return body to pre exercise state and reduce DOMS.
