This book was released on 2005 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Author's abstract] Circuit weight training (CWT) has been a popular form of exercise for more than three decades (Beckham & Earnest, 2000). The possibility of enhancing muscular and cardiovascular fitness simultaneously has fueled the popularity of CWT (Hortobagyi et al., 1991). Major components of fitness often targeted through CWT include body composition, bone mineral content (BMC), bone mineral density (BMD), VO2peak, and muscular strength (MS) and endurance (ME) (Wetmore et al., 1978). However, the optimal dimensions and combinations of CWT recommended for providing various health benefits remains to be carefully defined (Ashe & Khan, 2004). Little research has been done to directly assess the effects of CWT on overall fitness when looking at each of these components working together as one functioning unit. The purpose of this study was to assess body composition, VO2peak, BMD BMC, MS and ME changes in young adult females following an eight week CWT program. Twenty four young adult women aged 18 to 35 years of age volunteered to be randomly assigned into one of two groups: circuit weight training group (CTG) (n=12), or control group (CN) (n=12). The CTG group exercised 3 days per week for 20 minutes per day. CTG completed a 5 minute warm up on the treadmill followed by a 10 station CWT routine consisting of 1 set for as many repetitions possible in 30 seconds at each station. Weight was initially set at 60% of 1 repetition maximum and increased 21/z lb. every two weeks. CN was asked to remain inactive throughout the eight week study. CTG and CN were asked to maintain their usual dietary patterns throughout the eight week study and completed a 3 day dietary log during week one and week eight to verify compliance. A 2 (Group) x 2 (Time) Repeated Measures ANOVA was the principal mode of data analysis. CTG was significantly different (p

Book Periodization Training for Sports

Download or read book Periodization Training for Sports written by Tudor O. Bompa and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport conditioning has advanced tremendously since the era when a “no pain, no gain” philosophy guided the training regimens of athletes. Dr. Tudor Bompa pioneered most of these breakthroughs, proving long ago that it's not only how much and how hard an athlete works but also when and what work is done that determine an athlete's conditioning level. Periodization Training for Sports goes beyond the simple application of bodybuilding or powerlifting programs to build strength in athletes. In this new edition of Periodization Training for Sports, Bompa teams with strength and conditioning expert Carlo Buzzichelli to demonstrate how to use periodized workouts to peak at optimal times by manipulating strength training variables through six training phases (anatomical adaptation, hypertrophy, maximum strength, conversion to specific strength, maintenance, and tapering) and integrating them with energy system training and nutrition strategies. Coaches and athletes in 35 sports have at their fingertips a proven program that is sure to produce the best results. No more guessing about preseason conditioning, in-season workloads, or rest and recovery periods; now it's simply a matter of identifying and implementing the information in this book. Presented with plenty of ready-made training schedules, Periodization Training for Sports is your best conditioning planner if you want to know what works, why it works, and when it works in the training room and on the practice field. Get in better shape next season and reap the benefits of smarter workouts in competition. Own what will be considered the bible of strength training for sport of the next decade.
