PHTY203 Lecture 5: Resistance Training - Program Possession and Self-Management
Document Summary
Management: review of concepts, the training process, requires a long term view - is not just sets and reps, multi-faceted, requires detailed planning, depends upon 3 basic training principles, overload. If there is insufficient recovery, then fitness is masked by fatigue: general adaptation syndrome, dose response, how much training do we need to facilitate adaptation, difficult to determine - different for each individual. Inverted u theory: threshold of adaptation, there is a minimum and maximum amount of stress required to facilitate positive and significant adaptations, fit(cid:374)ess = st(cid:396)ess (cid:396)e(cid:395)ui(cid:396)ed to eli(cid:272)it additio(cid:374)al adaptatio(cid:374)s. Law of diminishing returns: the more well trained we become, the potential for adaptation is reduced. Define periodisation: constant training at the same level can lead to overtraining, exhaustion, diminished returns. Injury: other, periodisation minimises this, the systematic and planned variation in training in order to meet specific training goals, breaking down training in to smaller, more manageable, phases.
