Document Summary

Periodization is the foundation of an athlete"s training plan. The term periodization originates from the word period, which is a way of describing a portion or division of time. Periodization is a method by which training is divided into smaller, easy-to-manage segments that are typically referred to as phases of training. Periodization of training has evolved over the centuries, with many sport scientists and authors contributing to its development. The optimal periodization model for each sport and the time required for an optimal increase in training status and preparedness have yet to be elucidated. Selective periodization: periodization of training should be individualized because far too often training plans developed for elite athletes are used for young athletes who lack the training experience and physiological maturity to tolerate intensive competitive schedules. A monocycle is strongly suggested as the basic annual training model for novice and junior athletes.
