Not exact matches

When it comes to training, there is something called periodization «'' which consists of the phases you go through when training to «peak» at a specific time.

While this linear model works and can create quite a high peak of fitness and strength, it does tend to mean that fitness components developed earlier in the training phases are lost as you near the end of the plan.

Increasing muscle fascicle length through eccentric training could therefore be a valuable method for improving athletic performance in movements that have peak contractions at long muscle lengths, such as the terminal swing phase of sprinting, or the ground contact phase of sharp change of direction (COD) maneuvers.

Nonlinear periodization doesn't include the typical training periods (i.e. hypertrophy phase, strength phase, peaking phase), instead it modulates training on a weekly basis (first workout of 3 - 5 reps, second workout of 6 - 8 reps, third workout of 10 - 12 reps).

It is oriented around the peak performance competition of that year, and phases of training are created to build up to this point.

Conventional weight training (using either barbells with just weight plates, or constant - load machines) involves comparatively higher peak forces relative to the percentage of 1RM used, slower bar speeds, and a peak muscle contraction at the start of the concentric phase, where muscle lengths are longest.

Dynamic strength training through either a (1) full or a (2) partial range of motion (ROM) are similar to isometric strength training at either (1) long or (2) short muscle lengths, because the muscle is only really challenged at the point of peak contraction, and this is at the start of the concentric phase in most common exercises.
