Sports Training Planning: Essential Considerations

Effective sports training planning is crucial for athlete development and performance. It requires careful consideration of several key factors:

• Athlete Characteristics and Goals: Understanding the individual athlete's unique traits and their specific performance objectives.
• Available Resources: Assessing the equipment, facilities, and support personnel at hand.
• Competition Calendar: Aligning training phases with important competitions and events.
• Factors Affecting Performance: Identifying all potential influences on an athlete's performance throughout the periodized planning cycle.

Levels of Sports Training Planning

Training planning is structured across different time horizons to ensure progressive... Continue reading "Strategic Sports Training: Planning for Peak Athlete Performance" »

Fundamental Principles of Training

• Multilateralism: Training should comprehensively develop both the body and fundamental physical qualities.
• Continuity: Physical effort should be sustained without interruptions to maximize benefits.
• Gradual Growth of Effort: Training intensity should progress from low to high, increasing as the individual adapts.
• Overload: Adaptation occurs when stimuli exceed the body's current capacity, prompting improvement.
• Transfer: Physical exercises should be chosen with a specific objective, ensuring they contribute to desired performance outcomes.
• Specificity: Training must be tailored to the athlete's particular sport or specialty.
• Voluntary Stimulation: Genuine improvement stems from voluntary and conscious effort during

Physical Valences: Definition and Characteristics

Physical valences are a set of aspects that determine the physical condition and individual characteristics, encompassing both innate and acquired abilities.

Classification of Key Physical Valences

• Force

  Force is the body's ability to overcome stress or exert effort against resistance.

• Power

  The ability to execute an action or produce an effect, generally used in situations requiring a sense of strength and rapid execution.

• Speed

  Speed is the ability of the individual to travel a distance or make a movement in the shortest time possible. Speed is defined as an ability based on the action of the nervous system, muscles, and the velocity of movement.

• Flexibility

  Flexibility is the ability of the body to

The Family: Primary Agent of Socialization

Theme 7 focuses on the family as the primary agent of socialization. It is important to understand the expectations within this context to contribute effectively to the child's integral development.

Socialization is the central process of interaction between the child and their environment. An environment with few stimuli can lead to cognitive and social development deficits.

The family is the major social context where the child lives, and it is here that programs for basic autonomous learning are established.

Core Processes of Socialization

Within the socialization process, three fundamental processes occur, affecting development:

• Affective Development
• Cognitive Development
• Social Development (including

Stretching Techniques

Dynamic Stretching

Dynamic stretching is a training method widely used in gyms, utilizing springs. No plates are used; the objective is to improve physical condition by increasing the range of motion.

Ballistic Stretching

Ballistic stretching uses methods similar to dynamic stretching but involves more exaggerated muscle movement. It also produces the normal myotatic reflex and must be monitored carefully as it carries a higher risk of muscle injury.

Benefits of Dynamic & Ballistic Stretching

• More motivating and less boring than static stretching.
• Develops dynamic flexibility.

Disadvantages of Dynamic & Ballistic Stretching

• Tissue adaptation is momentary.
• Increases the risk of injuries.
• Triggers the stretch reflex.

5. Nutritional Aspects

The effects of poor nutrition or malnutrition affect physical and motor development (Ds). In cases of malnutrition, the following must be considered:

• Time of occurrence.
• Severity of malnutrition (greater severity leads to worse physical Ds).
• Duration of this period (short periods allow for resilience).

Girls, due to their stable growth rate, better withstand the effects of malnutrition. Mainly, a deficit of protein and calcium in the maternal diet influences fetal development (Ds). Excess or deficit can have consequences beyond nutrition, such as rickets or obesity.

5.1. Malnutrition (MN)

Malnutrition can affect:

• The rate of growth.
• The final body size achieved.
• The composition of various tissues.
• The occurrence of certain maturation

TEST GRAPHICS: GRAPHICS STAGE

Sequence: Location, Pressure, Time, Motion, Size, Orientation of the person, Details.

Pressure

• Pressure - Stroke: Bold and profound creative leadership, rapid mental processes.
• Trazo thick and deep slow: Bold aggressiveness without depth.
• Person more routine mental processes slow, heavy mental: Wait, firm Stroke: resilience, adaptation.
• Curved Stroke: A character does not question the standard kind, sensitive.
• Stroke ornamented many turns: Self-centered narcissist.
• Trazo weak and fast: Intuitive creative mental quickness.
• Stroke weak and slow: Depressive anxiety.
• Normal pressure: Adjusted balance, developed, constant, harmonious.
• Pressure weak, executed with speed and simplification: Represents mental agility, originality.

Volleyball Base Contact Position

To assume the base contact position:

• Flex your knees slightly and bend your body forward.
• Separate your feet and position them slightly apart (shoulder-width).
• Arms are flexed and placed in front of the body.

Finger Contact (Setting) Technique

This technique is used for setting the ball:

• Position the ball above your forehead.
• Point your feet in the direction you intend to send the ball.
• Elbows are flexed, and hands are positioned above the forehead, fingers facing up and open properly.
• Both hands and fingers should form a triangular window (pointer).
• The ball must touch the finger pads (pulp).
• Extend your legs and arms flexibly while sending the ball upwards.

Flexibility Work Recommendations

To improve flexibility, it's essential to work on specific muscle groups and joints.

Effects of Flexibility on the Nervous System

Flexibility improves the quality and speed of stimuli, through which nerves reach the muscles to act.

Understanding Breathing

Breathing is the process by which gas exchange occurs, facilitating the oxygen necessary for sustaining life and the output of carbon dioxide. It also plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's pH balance.

Controlling Breathing

Breathing can be controlled both physically and mentally. It is the only vital function that escapes the split between voluntary and involuntary control.

Phases of Respiration

• Expiration: Of great importance, since expelling the stale air

Volleyball Fundamentals

Game Objective

The primary objective in volleyball is to win three out of five sets to secure the match victory. Teams aim to prevent the opposing team from successfully returning the ball.

Playing Area

A standard volleyball court is rectangular, measuring 18 x 9 meters. It is divided in half by a net, which spans the 9-meter width of the court.

Team Composition

Volleyball teams typically consist of 12 players. Six players start the match on the court, while the remaining players are on the bench. The coach is permitted to make up to six substitutions in each set.

Player Roles

• Defenders (Back-Row Players): Responsible for receiving the serve or spike, they pass the ball to the setter. They primarily operate in court areas 5,
