Training Flashcards
What does SPORT stand for in principles of training?
Specificity, Progressive Overload, Reversibility and Tedium
What does FITT stand for progressive over load?
Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type
What are the 7 types of training?
Circuit, continuous, fartlek, high intensity interval training, static stretching, weight and plyometric
Circuit training
This training consist of a number of different exercises or activities arranged around a circuit
Continuous training
This consists of taking part in sustained exercise at a constant rate without any rests.
Fartlek training
This meaning speed training is a type of training which uses a variation of speed, terrain and work/ rest ratio.
High-intensity interval training
HIIT involves periods of exercising hard, interspersed with periods of rest. It commonly involves running
Static stretching
This is a way to stretch to include flexibility
Weight training
This is a training type which involves the lift of body or other weights. It can help power, strength and muscular endurance.
Plyometric training
This is a type of training that use eccentric contraction and followed by large concentric contraction
Safety principles when training
-warm up and cool down. -don’t over train. -appropriate clothing and footwear. -training should match the sport -allow appropriate rests. -don’t overstretched
High altitude training
Training that takes place normally 2000m or above sea level as there is less oxygen training is harder but body creates more blood cells so at sea level performers are better at their endurance event. Usually for running
