Principles of Training

2. training involving exercises to increase power (eccentric contraction followed by larger concentric contraction.)
4. ratios.
5. athletes need variety in their training to prevent boredom
11. a way to stretch to increase flexibility, held (isometric) for up to 30 seconds.
12. training focussing on general/aerobic fitness and specific fitness needs.
13. training that is relevant to an individual and their sport.
15. when training is increased by greater number of times each week.
17. training involving different exercises depending on fitness aim, eg strength/power training or muscular endurance.
21. 60 - 80 MaxHR.
22. training focussing on rest and recovery with light aerobic training to maintain a level of general fitness.
23. training principles(FITT)are increased over the training period.
24. sustained exercise at a constant rate steady state) without rests.

1. 80 - 90% MaxHR.
3. training varying speed, terrain and
6. when training is manipulated by offering a variety of activities and experiences to the athlete by combining training methods.
7. 220 - age.
8. when training is increased by lifting a greater resistance, such as with weight training, or by training at a higher percentage of maximum heart rate.
9. when training can be manipulated for longer, reducing recovery times or by completing a greater number of sets or repetitions.
10. training involving a number of different stations, work and rest ratios.
14. training involving periods of exercising hard, interspersed with periods of rest or low intensity exercise.
16. a light jog, stretching and refuelling.
18. systems reverse or de-adapt if training stops or is significantly reduced.
19. training focussing to maintain fitness levels and work on specific skills.
20. a pulse raising activity, stretching and mobility exercises, sport specific activities and mental preparation.
