1. The Principle of Individuality1. The Principle of IndividualityDifferent people respond to the same training in different Different people respond to the same training in different ways. Heredity plays a major role in determining how ways. Heredity plays a major role in determining how quickly and to what degree the athlete adapts to a training quickly and to what degree the athlete adapts to a training program.program.

For these reasons any training program For these reasons any training program “must take into “must take into account the specific needs and abilities of the individuals account the specific needs and abilities of the individuals for whom it is designed.”for whom it is designed.”

2. The Principle of Specificity2. The Principle of SpecificityTo maximize the benefits, training must be specifically To maximize the benefits, training must be specifically matched to the type of activity the athlete use to be matched to the type of activity the athlete use to be engaged in. (engaged in. (endurance vs strength and power trainingendurance vs strength and power training).).By this principle the training program must stress the By this principle the training program must stress the physiological systems that are critical for optimal athlete’s physiological systems that are critical for optimal athlete’s performance, in order to achieve performance, in order to achieve specific adaptations for specific adaptations for specific sports.specific sports.

3. The Principle of Progressive Overload3. The Principle of Progressive OverloadOverload Overload andand Progressive Training Progressive Training are the foundation of are the foundation of all training programs. all training programs. A well-designed Training Program must involve working A well-designed Training Program must involve working the muscles, respiratory and cardiovascular systems the muscles, respiratory and cardiovascular systems harder than normal (harder than normal (overloadoverload); as the body adapts, ); as the body adapts, Training progresses to a higher work level (Training progresses to a higher work level (progressive progressive trainingtraining))

4. The Principle of Hard / Soft4. The Principle of Hard / SoftBill Bowerman (former U.S. Olympic track coach and Bill Bowerman (former U.S. Olympic track coach and founder of NIKE) developed a training strategy for his founder of NIKE) developed a training strategy for his distance running that became known as distance running that became known as ‘ The principle of ‘ The principle of hard / soft’.hard / soft’.

According to this principle, one or two days of hard According to this principle, one or two days of hard training should be followed by one day of soft training, training should be followed by one day of soft training, allowing the fully recover of body and mind and prevent allowing the fully recover of body and mind and prevent the athlete’s overtraining.the athlete’s overtraining.

According to this principle, training benefits are lost if According to this principle, training benefits are lost if training is either discontinued or reduced too abruptly.training is either discontinued or reduced too abruptly.

Overtraining is an imbalance between exercise and Overtraining is an imbalance between exercise and recovery in which the athlete’s training program recovery in which the athlete’s training program execeeds the body’s physiologic and psycological execeeds the body’s physiologic and psycological limits and causes fatigue and reduced functional limits and causes fatigue and reduced functional capacity.This problem results from a short-tocapacity.This problem results from a short-tomedium-term increase in training volume and/or medium-term increase in training volume and/or Intensity over the athlete’s previously substantial Intensity over the athlete’s previously substantial baseline. baseline.
