Students will develop a good understanding of the principles supporting the model of periodization training, learn different models of periodization training and value its role for injury prevention and peaking of performance. Students will be able to design training plans based on training periods for all sports and how to put together different training programs in the context of a macrocycle, mesosycle and microcycle. For apparently healthy, non-athletes, students will learn how to develop and implement a safe and effective training program based on the client’s needs and goals. Emphasis is also placed on how to structure a training session, i.e. how to develop and implement an effective warm-up, the main session and the cool-down period for both athletes and non-athletes.
