2. PERIODISATION Responses to training stress – fig 22.1  General adaptation syndrome Alarm reaction phase ○ Shock ○ Counter shock Resistance phase Exhaustion phase

3. PERIODISATION Periodisation cycles  Macrocycles Training year  Mesocycles Several weeks  Microcycles 1 week

4. PERIODISATION Periodisation periods – fig 22.2 and 22.3  Preparatory period Volume – most important Intensity – next Technique – least important  Transition phase – all cross over  Competition period – peaking Technique – most important Intensity – next Volume – least important  Draw both versions.

5. PERIODISATION Periodisation periods  Preparatory period Hypertrophy/endurance phase: very low moderate intensity (50-75% of 1RM) and very high to moderate volume (3-6 sets of 10-20 repetitions). Basic strength phase: high intensity (80-90% of 1RM) and moderate volume (3-5 sets of 4-8 repetitions). Strength/power phase: high intensity (75-95% of 1RM, depending on the exercise) and low volume (3-5 sets of 2-5 repetitions).

6. PERIODISATION Periodisation period  Competition period For peaking: very high intensity (>93% of the 1RM) and very low volume (1-3 sets of 1-3 repetitions); for maintence: moderate intensity (~80-85% of the 1RM) and moderate volume (~2-3 sets of ~6-8 repetitions).  Second transition period (active rest) Lasts 1-4 weeks. Unloading week no training. Recreational activity that may not involve resistance training.
