Document Summary

After the initial response, the body moves into resistance phase, in which it adapts to the stimulus and returns to a normal functional capacity. If the training stress is appropriately structured and not excessive, these adaptive responses can result in specific biomechanical, structural, and mechanical adjustments that further elevate the athlete"s performance capacity, resulting in what is termed supercompensation. Specifically, the greater the overall magnitude of the workload encountered, the more fatigue accumulates and the longer the delay before complete recovery and adaptation can occur. If no new training stimulus is introduced, a state of involution or detraining is observed. When training loads are the highest, fitness becomes elevated; but because of the high training loads, a concomitant increase in fatigue occurs. When fitness and fatigue are summed in this case, the level of fatigue results in a reduction in preparedness.
