Blending various periodization models with practical templates and real-world examples, this resource empowers scientifically based programming for athletes at every level.\u003cbr\u003eThe concept of periodization is not new, with the precursors of periodized training dating back more than 2,000 years ago. But it is now obvious that the holistic development of an athlete encompasses more than their physical and tactical training. \u003ci\u003eScientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book of its kind designed to optimize sport performance by integrating both classic and modern periodization theories with recovery methodologies, nutritional interventions, and athlete monitoring guidelines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Written by G. Gregory Haff, a world-leading expert on periodization, \u003ci\u003eScientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization\u003c\/i\u003e incorporates the latest scientific evidence to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to implement planning and programming strategies to enhance physiological adaptations. While other periodization books may discuss training theory, few provide information on how to integrate various training models into the periodization process. Here are just some of the approaches incorporated into \u003ci\u003eScientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Employing and blending parallel, sequential, and emphasis periodization models to develop athletes \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Synching recovery strategies with various phases and periods of training to enhance the adaptational process \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Manipulating nutritional strategies to magnify performance \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Using and interpreting monitoring data to adjust an athlete’s program in accordance with the periodized plan \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e Applicable for athletes at all levels and in any sport, \u003ci\u003eScientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization\u003c\/i\u003e translates the latest research into usable information that directly enhances programming. You will have access to real-world, practical examples and discussions of how to make scientifically sound programming decisions. A glossary of over 400 terms will help you digest the content. Plus, you will find periodization templates and directions on how to use them to create annual training, mesocycle, and microcycle plans. Templates are provided online via HK\u003ci\u003ePropel\u003c\/i\u003e to help you easily design periodized programs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Get the most comprehensive resource about periodization ever written, and use scientific evidence to take your periodization programming to the next level with \u003ci\u003eScientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEarn continuing education credits\/units!\u003c\/b\u003e A continuing education exam that uses this book is also available.
