PRINCIPLES OF TRAINING

Specificity


Intensity


Duration


Progressive Overload


Frequency


+ Detraining, maintenance, individuality, diminishing returns and variety

SPECIFICITY

Training should replicate:


- Energy system usage


- Work:Rest ratio


- Muscle Groups used


- Fitness Components

INTENSITY

Determined by and should replicate:


- Heart Rate


- Accelerometers


- GPS Units


- % of VO2 max


- Rate of perceived exertion

DURATION

- Length of training program


- Minimum amount of time for adaptations to occur


It is important for each session to have the correct duration for peaking to occur

PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD

Putting your body under new stress loads after it has adjusted to previous loads.


- Do when training has become easier


- Within and increase of 2-10%

FREQUENCY

To improve a fitness component it must be trained at least 3 times a week.


To maintain a fitness component it must be trained at least twice a week.

DETRAINING

Occurs when training has stopped due to injury or off season. Detraining occurs quicker in people with immobilisation and adaptations are reversed quicker than accumulated.

INDIVIDUALITY

A program should be tailored to: Age, gender, fitness, genetic pre-disposition, adaptive responses, skills, levels of motivation and experience .

DIMINISHING RETURNS

Everyone has a genetic potential for fitness. An untrained person will show greater initial improvements but then as they get close to their potential the rate of improvement slows.

VARIETY

Changing the program to:


- Renew training motivation


- Introduce new interest


- Stress muscles in new ways for adaptations to occur

TRAINING METHODS

- Interval Training


- Continuous Training


- Fartlek Training


- Resistance/Weights Training


- Speed Training


- Plyometrics Training


- Circuit Training


- Core Strength and Flexibility Training

LONG INTERVAL TRAINING

Trains: Aerobic System


Intensity: 75- 85% max HR


Duration: 1-4 minutes


Rest: 1-4 minutes


Ratio: 1:1


Used for: Team sports with a high aerobic base; 800-3000m track, 100-800m swimming

INTERMEDIATE INTERVAL TRAINING

Trains: Anaerobic Glycolysis System


Intensity: 85%+ mx HR


Duration: 15-69 seconds


Rest: 2-3 minutes


Ratio: 1:2 or 1:3


Used for: team sports with bursts of anaerobic energy; 200-1500m track; 25-100m swimming

SHORT INTERVAL TRAINING

Trains: ATP-PC and Anaerobic Glycolysis Systems


Intensity: Maximal


Duration: 5-15 seconds


Rest: 15-60 seconds


Ratio: 1:4 or 1:5


Used for: Team sports with short sprints; 100m track; 25 m swimming

CONTINUOUS TRAINING

Trains: Aerobic Energy System


Intensity: 10-85% max HR


Duration: Needs to be maintained for at least 20 minutes


Used for: Improving cardiovascular functions; running; cycling; swimming

FARTLEK TRAINING

Contains continuous work with bursts of speed. It is commonly done with hills and roughly translates to 'speed play'.


Trains: Anaerobic Glycolysis and Aerobic Energy Systems


Intensity: Changes as terrains do

RESISTANCE TRAINING FOR MUSCULAR STRENGTH

Developed by working with 'heavy' resistances to enable the actions to be performed at a slow-moderate contraction speed.


Rep Max: 60-70%


Reps: 8-12


Sets: 1-3


Speed: Slow to Moderate


Rest: 2-3 minutes between sets

RESISTANCE TRAINING FOR MUSCULAR HYPERTROPHY

Rep Max: 70-85%


Reps: 8-12


Sets: 1-3


Speed: Slow to Moderate


Rest Periods: 1-2 minutes between sets

RESISTANCE TRAINING FOR MUSCULAR POWER

Developed by working with light resistances to enable explosive actions.


Rep Max: 30-60%


Reps:3-6


Sets: 1-3


Speed: As fast as possible


Rest: 2-3 minutes between sets

RESISTANCE TRAINING FOR MUSCULAR ENDURANCE

Developed by working with 'moderate' resistances to enable to actions to be performed quickly with high repetitions


Rep Max: 40-60%


Reps: 15-25


Sets: 1-3


Speed: Slow to moderate


Rest: 1 minute

PLYOMETRIC TRAINING

-Calls upon the stretch-shortening cycle of the muscle


CONTRACTIONS:


- Eccentric contractions


- Concentric contractions


Eccentric contraction occurs followed by a rapid concentric contraction

FIXED TIME CIRCUIT

- Most common type


-Performers complete as many reps in the given time at each station


- Short rest periods


- No resting between stations

FIXED LOAD CIRCUIT

- Pre-determined loads set (set amounts of reps)


- Individual strength and weaknesses are NOT taken into account

INDIVIDUAL LOAD CIRCUIT

- Individualised by determining the number of reps before commencement of the circuit


- "Waiting time" may be experiences due to different numbers of reps

CORE STRENGTH TRAINING

- Improves running efficiency; transfer of power between the upper and lower body; balance and stability whilst performing skills; acceleration and deceleration


- Decreases risk of lower back injuries


- Most common exercised are pilates and Swiss ball Training

FLEXIBILITY TRAINING

- Enhances the development of speed, strength and power.


- Reduces the likelihood of injury, the impact of DOMS.


- Improves posture


- Relieves physiological and psychological stress


Maximum flexibility gains are obtained when the muscles and joint are warmed up.

STATIC STRETCHING

A joint is taken through its' range of movement and this position is 'held' for 10+ seconds

DYNAMIC AND BALLISTIC STRETCHING

- A joint is moved though its range of motion with controlled movement (dynamic)


- Dynamic stretching should mimic some of the movements and actions to be performed in the activity


- Ballistic stretching involves the same movement as dynamic stretching but with greater speed/force applied

PNF STRETCHING

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation


- A joint is moved though its range of motion until resistance/slight discomfort is experienced.


- Isometric contractions of associated muscles for 0-6 seconds before relaxing.


- The joint is taken to full range of motion again and isometric contractions repeated.


- This sequence is repeated 6-10 times
