Q

why is rest and recovery important?

A

training causes catabolic effect on muscles. During rest there is an anabolic effect which is the body adapting to become fitter

  • increasing blood flow
  • maximises effectiveness of training
  • eliminates painful points in soft tissue
  • accelerates removal of waste products
120
Q

what is periodisation?

A

the systemic planning of physical training. It is the schedule and design of year round program

121
Q

what is the yearly plan called for periodisation?

A

macrocycle

122
Q

what smaller section is a macrocycle broken into?

A

microcycle

125
Q

how long does a microcycle usually last?

A

7-10days

126
Q

what does periodisation help prevent and incorporate?

A

prevents overtraining and also structures so the athlete peaks at key times during the year. Must incorporate rest and tapering

127
Q

what are the different strategies to record and monitor training?

A
  • digital recording trackers and apps (physiological data)

- psychological and sociocultural data

128
Q

what does the digital recording trackers and apps monitor?

A

capture physiological data or work eg.distance ran etc.
