✅✅
Understand the relevant theory and principles that underpin training. -
-Training Load model, Periodization, Parallel 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 achieved? - ✅✅-by disturbing the current
capacity of the system
What is supercompensation? - ✅✅ -Supercompensation is the effect
whereby performance is enhanced if the body is able/allowed to adapt.
What syndrome is supercompensation related to? - ✅✅-General adaptation
syndrome
What is general adaptation syndrome? - ✅✅ -The framework of interaction
between the imposed training stress, acute fatigue response, adaptation, and
a new level of homeostasis/performance.
How does overtraining syndrome develop? - ✅✅ -After continued high
volume, high intensity training or both when an athlete is over-reached.
Which training model is when performance of a positive fitness effect and a
✅✅
negative fatigue effect decay exponentially over time but at different rates? -
-Fitness-fatigue model
What is the dose-response relationship? - ✅✅ -relationship between the size
of an administered 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 has responded to an external load? -
-Internal 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 energy cost of acceleration is equivalent to
running at a constant speed up an "equivalent slope"? - -Metabolic
Power
✅✅
What is the most appropriate equation for quantifying resistance training load?
- -Number of sets x number of repetitions x percent repetition max
What is performance? - ✅✅-A function of the difference between fitness and
fatigue
Which central and peripheral sites contribute to fatigue? - ✅✅
-Activation of
the motor command (brain)
Propagation of the action potential through the descending motor pathway
Myofilament excitation-contraction coupling
Status of the intracellular milieu
What is Psychobiological model of fatigue? - ✅✅ -Modification of intensity
whereby fatigue occurs when the effort required exceeds maximal effort the
athlete is willing to exert or when the athlete believes the effort has been
maximal and it feels impossible to continue.
What is the Integrative governor theory? - ✅✅ -Suggests both psychological
and physiological factors limit performance with a particular focus on
subconscious avoidance of catastrophic failure due to severe disruptions in
homeostasis.
what is the deterministic model of training? - ✅✅
-a model of sports
performance wherein there is a unique consequence or or outcome to every
input or state
