Periodization For Peak Performance
(available on a DVD in PDF format
only) Periodization
For Peak Performance,
written by Tim LaVallee, provides educational
information and an understanding of the process for
reaching a peak performance. Periodization of sport
training is not a new concept, and has been applied
by coaches for years. Periodization, is a method of
building the elements of training into periods and phases
each having their own development and purpose designed
to create a pathway to success. Each of these periods
and phases interacts with the others like the links
of a chain, making the final result an optimally prepared
athlete or group of athletes who are physically, technically,
tactically, and psychologically ready for a peak performance
at a designated optimal time.
Periodization
For Peak performance
addresses the planning of training which includes the
specific energy systems of the alpine ski racer, the
endurance, strength, power, and speed requirements of
the athlete, motor skills development, as well as how
they all relate to the technical and tactical skills
to reach a "peak performance." All these parts
of successful ski racing are enhanced in a step-by-step
process from preparation period to competition season
and the regeneration/transition periods of an annual
training plan.
This
comprehensive article is full of diagrams, charts, and
examples relative to periodization for the alpine ski
racer.
