Principals of Training

• What are the two main processes involved in assessment for learning?

  Analysis and interpretation
• What should examples provided in assessment for learning include?

  • Accurate and incomplete information
  • Missing information
  • Cover physical fitness demands
  • Include athletic, individual, and team sports
• What should you assess in the provided examples?

  Missing information and its impact
• What is the purpose of identifying sound information in examples?

  To recommend necessary changes
• What are the basic principles of training mentioned?

  • FITT: Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type
  • SPORRT: Specificity, Progressive Overload, Rest/Recovery, Reversibility, Tedium
• Why must training methods match the physical demands of a sport?

  To ensure effective training outcomes
• What is the primary focus of a training program for marathon running?

  Aerobic fitness and muscular endurance
• What is the training focus for the 100 m sprint?

  Strength, power, and anaerobic fitness
• What are the phases of periodisation in training programmes?

  1. Foundation phase
  2. Development phase
  3. Sharpening phase
  4. Peaking phase
  5. Competition phase
  6. Rest/recovery phase
• What is the purpose of the foundation phase in training?

  To develop general physical fitness
• What happens during the sharpening phase of training?

  Training volume is reduced, focusing on intensity
• What is the goal of the peaking phase?

  To prepare for competition
• What is the significance of the rest/recovery phase?

  Allows muscles to recover and adapt
• How can tedium in training be avoided?

  • Use a variety of training methods
  • Change training venues
  • Maintain specificity while varying methods
• What does the principle of reversibility imply?

  Fitness levels decrease if training stops
• How should training programs be tailored for individuals?

  Based on individual responses to training
• What is an example of applying the principle of overload?

  Increasing running frequency or intensity
• What is the role of rest and recovery in training?

  Facilitates biological adaptations
• How does progressive overload differ for strength and endurance training?

  Strength focuses on resistance; endurance on time
• What is the recommended RPE for recovery training?

  RPE 4/20
• Why is it important to find the best training method for each individual?

  To optimize training effectiveness
