Developing Muscular Fitness
Chapter 6Sport Physiology for Coaches
Please review the following Training Principles from Chapter 2. ◦Overload and recovery◦Specificity◦Individuality◦Maintenance and reversibility◦Progression, variation and periodization
Training Principles
Muscle Balance◦ Maintaining a balance in the strength between the
pairs of opposing muscles Biceps vs. triceps Quadriceps vs. Hamstrings
Repetition Max◦ The maximum number of times you can lift a
given weight. 1RM – max weight you can lift 1time
Resistance Training Terms
Isometric◦ Static contraction / no change in muscle length◦ Contraction against an immovable object◦ Does not have the dynamic strength necessary
for sport performance Isotonic
◦ Contractions against a consistent resistance. Dynamics constant external resistance (DCER) more
accurate terminology Concentric vs. eccentric Free weights vs. machines (Table 6.1 page 87)
Resistance Training Methods
Isokinetic◦ Contraction against a resistance that is varied
throughout the range of motion while speed remains relatively constant.
◦ Advantages High resistance training through whole range of
motion Training at speed similar to sport More concentric contractions / less muscle soreness
◦ Disadvantages Expensive equipment Limited ranges of motions and movements
Resistance Training Methods
Rep◦ On complete cycle of an exercise◦ Includes concentric and eccentric phases
Set◦ A number of reps completed with out rest
Circuit training◦ A method of putting sets together such that an
athlete does one set of each exercise before repeating sets of any exercise.
Set-rep training◦ A method of organizing training into multiple repeated
sets of one exercise before the next exercise.
Resistance Training Methods
Intensity◦ Refers to amount of weight lifted. ◦ Influences by speed of rep.
Rest period◦ The amount of time allowed between sets for
recovery.◦ Longer rest periods are beneficial for strength and
power development.
Resistance Training Methods
Goals and Needs Assessment◦ Necessary to know where you are and where you
want to go. ◦ Using fitness test to establish these needs. ◦ With good information and goals, you can design
programs to improves areas of weakness and maintain strengths.
Core Stability◦ Trunk and hips◦ Part of the chain in power development.◦ Improved performance and reduction in injuries◦ Examples in Appendix B
Organizing a Strength Program
Exercise Selection◦ Major exercises
Greatest influence on strength development ◦ Assistant exercises
Specific training effect for a particular sport◦ Supplementary exercise
Carefully selected, sport specific exercises◦ Specialty exercises
Selected according to the athlete’s needs Table 6.2 (page 90-97)provides some sport
specific examples.
Organizing a Strength Program
Exercise Specificity◦ Sport specific and athlete specific◦ Modify existing programs to be more sport specific
Exercise order◦ Warm-up◦ Large muscle groups before smaller groups◦ Multi-joint before single joint◦ High intensity before low intensity
Frequency◦ Depends on goals, athlete fitness level, intensity and recovery. ◦ 2-4 sessions per week per muscle group
Velocity◦ Speed of movement decreases as resistance is increased◦ Strength development – slow movement with higher
resistance◦ Power development – moderate to fast speeds.
Organizing a Strength Program
The normal progression of resistance training:◦ Strength◦ Power◦ Power Endurance
Beginning strength athletes◦ Resistance of about 60% - 70% 1RM◦ 8-12 reps
Advanced strength athletes◦ Resistance of about 80% - 100% 1RM◦ 2-5 reps
Variety in load has been shown to be beneficial Volume (Sets) will variety for individual athletes. Rest periods
◦ Longer rest periods – beneficial to development of strength
Summarized in Table 6.3 (page 100)
Developing Strength
Power is the rate of doing work. Traditional strength training focus on
strength at slow speeds not speeds required for athletic performance.
Power Training – light to moderate loads at high speeds, effectively increase sport specific power.
Must have adequate strength before developing power.
Developing Power
It is necessary to continue some strenght work-outs to maintain base strength.
Table 6.4 (page 102) gives guidelines for developing power while maintaining strength.
Developing Power
Athletic events require different ratios of strength, power and power endurance.
It is optimal of duplicate the speed and motion used in the sport.
Table 6.5 (page 103)◦ Short-term power endurance◦ Intermediate power endurance◦ Long-term power endurance
Table 6.6 (page 103)◦ Guidelines for developing power endurance
Developing Power Endurance
Progression◦ Planned increases in training
Periodization◦ Scheduled alterations in training loads that ensure
adequate time for recovery.◦ Variation is programed at different levels: daily,
weekly, seasonal, and career.◦ Resistance training programs are periodized into:
Preparatory Strength Power Power Endurance
Progression and Periodizaion
Learn proper lifting techniques Prepare the muscles and connective tissue
to handle the strain of Strength Training. Individualize several exercises for each
athlete. Determine RM for each exercise, then
decide on appropriate training preparatory resistance.
Preparatory
Dependent on needs of athlete and sport. During the first 6-8 weeks changes will be
metabolic and improved muscle fiber recruitment.
Refer back to Table 6.3 (page 100) for guidelines
Figure 6.3 (page 107) – Gives guidance for daily periodization.
Strength Training
High power sports may require 7-12 weeks of power training, followed by 2-3 weeks of taper.
Table 6.4 (page 102) for power training guidelines
Power Training
The athlete focuses more on repeated overloading of specific muscles and movements while maintaining movement speeds similar to those used in competition.
Little changes in muscle hypertrophy seen, most changes are increases the ability of individual fibers to maintain the required energy system for longer.
Table 6.5 and 6.5 (Page 108) offer guidelines for power endurance training.
Power Endurance Training
The higher the fitness level, the more training is required to maintain the fitness level.
Paradox for high intensity athletes to maintain high fitness while avoiding overtraining.
Maintenance
Relative strength, power and endurance of opposing muscle groups.
Opposing muscle balance◦ Balance between primary and antagonist muscle
groups. Bilateral balance
◦ Similar development on the two sides of the body.
Table 6.7 (page 110)◦ Presents a few commonly accepted muscular
strength balance values for major joints.
Muscle Balance
Speed implies acceleration from a starting point.
Acceleration implies power and maintenance of speed.
Speed is an interplay of the various energy systems. We will talk about these energy systems in the next section.
Power and power endurance training are essential to the development and maintenance of speed.
Improving Speed
Athletes perform speeds that they practice Requires time and patience Interval speeds should be 1-5 % above race
speeds. Allow adequate rest between intervals. Athletes should be well rested prior to
speed training. During peaking - short max intervals on
limited basis.
Speed Training
Technique is the neural coordination necessary for proper execution of a skill.
“Practice makes Permanent”
Neuromuscular Recruitment
Training methods that develop power and quickness.
Training the preload and elastic recoil present in many sport skills.
Eccentric stretch stores up energy that is quickly released during contraction.
Permit faster more powerful changes in direction.
Table 6.8 (page 115) sample plyometric program.
Plyometrics
Most effective time to stretch is after activity.
Connective tissue is more plastic when warmed by activity.
Fatigue muscle also benefits from increased length with stretching following exercise.
Flexibility
Static ◦ Slow controlled – positions held for 10 seconds◦ Post-exercise – effective for increasing flexibiliy.
Dynamic◦ Mimic dynamic sport movements.◦ Help to warm-up
PNF◦ Combination of contract-hold-relax
Stretching Methods.
Agility – the ability to change direction quickly while maintaining control of the body.
Balance – the ability to maintain equilibrium.
