Prescribing Strength Training for Team Sports – Part 7
In this video, I will discuss Robust planning, microdosing, barbell strategy, and iterative planning from the Agile Periodization. -
Create custom set and rep schemes with {STMr} – Module 5: Vertical Planning
Terminology in strength training prescription and planning is a chaotic state of affairs. My attempt (still ongoing), through the Agile Periodization framework, is to organize it in a more systematic and “phenomenological” way. -
Managing the High Performance Teams – Part 2
Unfortunately, or luckily, in High Performance Teams, there are multiple coaches that need to be consulted for the optimal schedule (and its changes). Besides, if we follow the ideas of the Agile Periodization, then we are constantly updating the plan in iterative manner, and these updates need to be the result of the Sprint meetings. This demands that the plan should be accessible by multiple coaches at the same time. -
The Best of Complementary Training in 2016
Here is my list of the best articles of Complementary Training in 2016: 1) What Do You Need to Know as a Sport Scientist Besides Sport Science (Addendum); 2)New Exercise Classification; 3) Managing (High) Performance Teams Using Scrumban Boards; 4) Agile Periodization: Concepts and Ideas; 5) Grand Unified Theory of Sport Performance; 6) ... -
Prescribing Strength Training for Team Sports – Part 5
In this video I will discuss one simplifying improvement of the percent-based program, which is estimation through iteration. -
{LEVsim}: Theoretical Load-Exertion-Velocity Model – Part 2: LEVsim Model
In this article, we dive into the LEVsim Theoretical Load Exertion Velocity Model and its application in training. Discover how this model can help coaches and athletes optimize their training programs and improve performance. -
{LEVsim}: Theoretical Load-Exertion-Velocity Model – Part 1: Resistance Training Phenomena
Resistance training prescription can be conceptualized from the dose perspective. The dose is a complex construct, but for the purpose of this article series, I will define it using the four interdependent components: (1) intensity, (2) volume, (3) density, and (4) other. -
Optimal Force-Velocity Profile for Sprinting: Is It All Bollocks? – Part 2
In the previous part, I introduced two models to map out the velocity-time relationship in short sprints, while in this article, I will focus on the characteristics of the mono-exponential model. -
Optimal Force-Velocity Profile for Sprinting: Is It All Bollocks? – Part 1
In this article series I will provide my opinion regarding the use of Force-Velocity Profile (FVP) optimization for short sprints (i.e., the sprints where there is no deceleration). -
Overview of Exercise Classification and Implementation into Athletic Training – Part 2
In part 2 of the presentation, I will focus a bit more on the practical side of the classifications, why creating a pool of exercises will save you a lot of time, trouble, and nerves, and what are some of the crucial things to keep in mind when prescribing training.
