Understand the relevant theory and Training Load model, Periodization, Parallel
principles that underpin training. training model, Sequential Training Model,
Periodization vs Programming Periodization is a a macro-management strategy
that serves as a training blueprint, from which
periods of time are assigned that target specific
skills, fitness, or performance related factors.
Volume and intensity are inversely related. 1-3
peaks/macrocycles per year
Programming is an operation of strategic thinking
which is best accomplished when ongoing
monitoring is integrated into the periodization
process.
How is biological adaptation by disturbing the current capacity of the system
achieved?
What is supercompensation? Supercompensation is the effect whereby
performance is enhanced if the body is
able/allowed to adapt.
, What syndrome is General adaptation syndrome
supercompensation related to?
What is general adaptation The framework of interaction between the
syndrome? imposed training stress, acute fatigue response,
adaptation, and a new level of
homeostasis/performance.
How does overtraining syndrome After continued high volume, high intensity
develop? training or both when an athlete is over-reached.
Which training model is when Fitness-fatigue model
performance of a positive fitness
effect and a negative fatigue effect
decay exponentially over time but
at different rates?
What is the dose-response relationship between the size of an administered
relationship? dose and the intensity of the response produced
What qualifies as external load? Amount of weight lifted, distance/speed of
running, its what an athlete has done.
What is it called when an athlete Internal load
has responded to an external load?
How is external load measured? camera systems, global positioning systems, local
positioning systems, often in conjunction with
other sensors such as accelerometers and power
meters.
What is the principle that the Metabolic Power
energy cost of acceleration is
equivalent to running at a constant
speed up an "equivalent slope"?
