Planning a training year: periodisation is an organisational arrangement cycle that breaks down training into manageable parts (examined and scrutinised), volume and intensity is better administered. Nature according to sport, activity, number, frequency (games/competitions). It begins with preseasons ends with competition. Too many comps makes athletes over-aroused, stressed, leading to staleness and inability.
PLANNING on spreadsheet to freely discuss and change as required. SOLID BASE: general fitness platform, addressing specific components of fitness. PROGRESSION: short/long term, fitness/skills continually challenged, no training plateaus. BALANCING VOLUME/INTENSITY. REST AND RECOVERY: sufficient variety and relief: avoid staleness, overtraining, fatigue. AVOID INJURY (managing loads). INDIVIDUALISATION.
