Periodization
Simply put, how can a program be designed to maximize
peak fitness for race day.
Periodization is a predetermined course
of action used to guide your training through the course of
a season.
Periodization programs
are customized based on ability and available time. Your personal
goals and real world schedules will be considered
before a long-term plan is designed.
All formulas for improvement
will include frequency( the number of workouts per week), intensity(
the amount of pace/stress
you allow), and time( increasing the duration of your training.
How
can you combine these principles into a weekly schedule.
And above all when to apply REST for recovery. follow-up with
additional
bouts of intensity.
Micro-cycles will define weekly schedules,
meso-cycles will connect weekly workouts and the macro-cycle
can be describes
as the culmination
of your training season. Macro-cycles may also describe
periods of peak performance prior to race day.
