Q

What is HIIT Training?

A

Involves repeated work intervals that are relatively brief in duration and performed close to VO2 max (90+% HRM) followed by a lower intensity recovery

Q

Why use HITT workouts?

A
  • provide same benefits as traditional aerobic training in shorter time periods due to higher intensity
  • EPOC for longer duration

Q

Training principles of HITT

A

1 - 2 times per week due to higher intensities and need to recover from microtrauma

Q

What are the risks associated with HITT?

A

Individuals with health issues may not be conditioned enough to complete HITT and may benefit from lower intensity.

Q

Chronic adaptations to HIIT

A
  • increased VO2 max
  • increased capillarisation
  • increased mitochondrial mass
  • increased muscle oxidative capacity
  • decrease lactate production, increased lactate tolerance
  • decreased reliance on glycogen

16
Q

Resistance training

A

Manipulation of repetitions and resistance

17
Q

Resistance

A

the load to be moved

18
Q

Muscular strength

A

85 - 100% 1RM
3 - 5 exercises
2 - 8 repetitions
3 - 5 sets
Passive rest
Slow contraction
2 - 3 frequency

19
Q

Muscular power

A

30% 1RM
2 - 4 exercises
4 - 6 repetitions
3 - 4 sets
Passive rest
Explosive speed
1 - 2 frequency

20
Q

Muscular Endurance

A

30 - 50% 1RM
4 - 8 exercises
15+ repetitions
2 sets
Active rest
Rhythmical speed
2 - 3 frequency

21
Q

Guidelines for resistance training

A
  • choose no more than 2 exercises for each muscle group
    muscular endurance, strength, power
  • recovery
  • indirectly improve other muscle components
22
Q

What is the aim of plyometric training?

A

Increase muscle power and develop the ability of the muscle to contract rapidly/explosively
4 - 6 repetitions

23
Q

How does Plyometric training work?

A

A muscle is loaded with an eccentric lengthening action followed by a concentric (shortening action), contracting more forcefully more rapidly
AKA stretch/reflex cycle
Shorter period = more forceful

24
Q

Plyometric training considerations

A
  • suitable strength base
  • start with low stress
  • not suitable for u15s
  • shock absorbing surfaces
  • 2x weel (prep) 1x (comp)
  • 48 hours recovery required
25
Q

Benefit of plyometrics

A
  • increase muscular power
  • increase force output allowing faster speed
  • increase development of power to increase stride length and running economy through reduced contact time
  • accelerate faster
26
Q

What is PNF stretching?

A

Static stretch followed by an isometric contraction or contract/relax sequence

27
Q

Dynamic stretching

A

involves moving a joint through its full range of motion with controlled momentum

28
Q

Static stretching

A

slowly stretching the muscle/tendon and holding the position for a period of time

29
Q

What are the benefits of core strength?

A
  • improved running economy
  • increased power output
  • potential to improve acceleration
  • improved balance
  • reduced risk of injury
