Each week I will aim my goals higher and as a result, by the end of my macrocycle will have improved my cardiovascular endurance to the standard wanted. I am using goals to increase my motivation and to maintain interest over the macrocycle. This is because I don't want to become bored as this will demotivate me and I will loose interest.
I am improving my cardiovascular endurance for my football performance and therefore I will be using a general phase to plan my session periods.
My macrocycle is in the general phase for periodisation. This is because I am aiming to develop a high levelof physical conditioning.
My overall goal is to increase my cardiovascular fitness in order to improve my footballing ability. I will be devising weekly goals to help progress towards my overall goal.
Below see my weekly plan consisting of days of training and days of rest.
The unloading periods throughout my week are 2/1 and 2/2.
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | Sunday |
Forest Recreation Ground | Gym | Rest | Gym | Forest Recreation Ground | Rest | Rest |
Include this into your plan and explain how you will use these principles through the 6 weeks.
ReplyDeleteThe key principles when planning a programme are:
Specificity – training must be matched to the needs of the sporting activity to improve fitness in the body parts the sport uses.
Overload - fitness can only be improved by training more than you normally do. You must work hard.
Progression – start slowly and gradually increase the amount of exercise and keep overloading.
Reversibility – any adaptation that takes place as a result of training will be reversed when you stop training. If you take a break or don’t train often enough you will lose fitness.
