Periodization and block periodization in sports: emphasis on strength-power training—a provocative and challenging narrative. J Strength Cond Res 35(8): 2351–2371, 2021—Periodization can be defined as a logical sequential, phasic method of manipulating fitness and recovery phases to increase the potential for achieving specific performance goals while minimizing the potential for nonfunctional over-reaching, overtraining, and injury. Periodization deals with the micromanagement of timelines and fitness phases and is cyclic in nature. On the other hand, programming deals with the micromanagement of the training process and deals with exercise selection, volume, intensity, etc. Evidence indicates that a periodized training process coupled with appropriate programming can produce superior athletic enhancement compared with nonperiodized process. There are 2 models of periodization, traditional and block. Traditional can take different forms (i.e., reverse). Block periodization has 2 subtypes, single goal or factor (individual sports) and multiple goals or factors (team sports). Both models have strengths and weaknesses but can be “tailored” through creative programming to produce excellent results for specific sports.

An observational and longitudinal analysis was carried out using rankings of the Royal Spanish Athletics Federation database. We analysed 547 sprinters (238 women and 309 men) from their U14 to senior stage who ranked in top-20 on at least one occasion during the period 2004 to 2021. The first entry in top-20 occurred mostly in U14 (44.4%, 243), and the frequency was progressively lower: 26.7% (146) in U16; 20.8% (114) in U18; 5.1% (28) in U20; 2% (11) in U23; and 0.9% (5) in the senior category. A similar tendency was observed in male and female athletes. Only 3.8% (9) of top-20 U14 athletes reached the senior elite stage, increasing this percentage in subsequent categories: 7.4% (15) in U16; 10.6% (24) in U18; 20.9% (32) in U20, and 31.4% (32) from U23 to the senior category. Data from female athletes showed higher maintenance of top-20 status from early categories to senior age. We conclude that even though the first entry into the national top-20 in sprint events occurs early in most cases, success in these initial stages is not a prerequisite for reaching top-20 positions in the senior category.

We attempted to quantify the relative contributions of performance in individual stroke events to top-10 world ranked IM competition performance. We examined competition results of top-10 world ranked IM swimmers (90 males and 90 females) between 2012 and 2018. A general linear model was developed to examine association between the 200-m and 400-mIM and predictor variables of competition performance in other 50-m, 100-m, and 200-m events. The main predictor variable for 200-mIM medalist status was having scored more than 900 FINA points in at least one 100-m event. Scoring more than 800 FINA points in at least two 200-mIM events, and more than 900 FINA points in at least one 100-m event, was important for success in the 400-mIM. Top-10 world ranked 200-mIM and 400-mIM swimmers require a world class standard in one or more individual stroke event(s)

Methodology: Eight autonomic male swimmers were studied. A single session in which a pretest measurement SJ, CMJ and Abalakov and analysis of technical swimming start (reaction time, flight time and distance input) was performed. These parameters were measured again after the application of two different treatments: semi squat (3x3 90% 1RM) and Yoyo-Flywheel. Results: No significant differences (p> 0.05) were found in the variables flight time, distance input and reaction time. No significant differences (p> 0.05) were found in the variables flight time and height of different jumps CMJ, SJ and Abalakov. Conclusion: The training used (untrained, semi squat and YoYo) has no relation to improved performance in the variables flight time, reaction time and input distance in athletic swimming start. In turn, no significant differences in flight time and height of jumps CMJ, SJ and Abalakov. Practical application: no training used provides much higher performance than the others so it must seek alternative training.

Interest in relation to running economy has increased such as determinant of running performance ... more Interest in relation to running economy has increased such as determinant of running performance in scientific literature in trained long and middle distance runners and recreational runners. Trained runners are more efficient than untrained runners, meaning it is a "trainable" parameter. A key factor during endurance training is the intensity of corresponding effort, characterized by two endurance training methods such as interval and continuous training. In recreational runners, there is some controversy about which intensities are optimal in order to improve running economy, thus, periodized endurance training with a logical relationship between high and low-intensity training is recommended. We recommend the inclusion of 2-3 session per week of interval training, compensated with continuous training. Regarding to trained runners, interval training (at intensities close to VO 2 max) will be more important because of the need to be more economical at competitive intensities. Very high training intensities would not lead improvements in running economy due to it is not posible to accumulate enough training volumen during the training period. Conversely, the high-intensity efforts prior to competition (intensities above anaerobic threshold), during a warm-up protocol, increase the energy cost (reduce the running economy) and therefore, it is recommended a long transient phase (9-20 min) before to competition so as not to disturb the subsequent performance. An increase of scientific studies regarding the effects of high-intensity efforts during a warm-up protocol is needed in order to know the optimal intensities, flat or uphill ground, or the adequate recovery to improve the subsequent performance.

En el marc teoric, hem trobat que nombrosos autors destaquen la importancia d’investigar per centrar l’atencio de l’alumne en l’aprenentatge. Per aixo, tot intentant d’aportar solucions en aquest problema, hem seguit un proces d’analisi, partint de la realitat del Sistema Educatiu Espanyol; ens hem centrat en l’ESO, i mes concretament, en el primer cicle (alumnes de 1r i 2n curs). S’ha estudiat a continuacio l’Educacio Fisica Escolar i la problematica que l’envolta, i hem passat tot seguit directament a l’aprenentatge de les habilitats motrius (entre les quals es troba l’Atletisme) i el seu ensenyament, el tractament de la informacio, la comunicacio professor alumne i altres aspectes importants, fins arribar a l’atencio com a element clau en el proces ensenyament-aprenentatge, i dintre d’aquella, a l’atencio selectiva, en l’estudi de la qual hem tractat d’aprofundir, bo i intentant de coneixer-ne en bona mesura la naturalesa, la manera d’avaluar-la i com millorar-la i entrenar-la. Tot plegat ens ha donat prou base per a centrar-nos en la nostra proposta de les falques informatives, que son l’objecte del treball present i que ens han dut fins al nostre objectiu principal. La metodologia utilitzada ha estat de tipus quasi experimental, amb un mesurament pretest, una intervencio didactica diferenciada, que inclou el desenvolupament d’una unitat didactica i un mesurament posttest. Per fer-ho, hem comptat amb dos grups d’alumnes (control: 23 i experimental: 23) que han rebut diferent tractament dintre dels continguts propis del seu nivell educatiu, i que han realitzat respectivament les proves corresponents (abans i despres del tractament), que en ser comparades i efectuar els estudis estadistics posteriors, ens han donat els resultats que recollim en aquest treball. Les variables principals han estat l’atencio selectiva i les falques informatives (variable independent) i el rendiment de l’alumne (variable dependent en les diferents proves, mesurades en segons i decimes de segon en la prova de velocitat de 60 metres; metres i centimetres en llancament de pes i en salt de longitud). Els resultats mostren que s’ha produit una significativitat estadistica (p< 0,05) en dues de les proves (velocitat i salt de longitud), i que no ha estat suficient en la tercera (llancament de pes). En resum, el desenvolupament de l’atencio selectiva a traves de falques informatives millora l’aprenentatge dels continguts d’Educacio Fisica de jocs i esports referits a l’Atletisme en els alumnes d’Educacio Secundaria Obligatoria en les proves de velocitat i salt de longitud.

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of recovery period during long interval training (... more The aim of this study was to assess the effect of recovery period during long interval training (IT) on mechanical, physiological, perceptive, and neuromuscular parameters. Six men and six women trained runners (23.82 ± 7.83years; 56.27 ± 8.95kg; 167.55 ± 9.77cm) performed three treadmill interval sessions (4x4min) at 1% incline with 1min, 2min or self-selected recovery periods (SSrecovery) at highest possible average running speed. Velocity and distance increased by 2.5% (p < 0.05) in SSrecovery (~ 190s) compared to 2min. Blood lactate concentration (BLC) (p < 0.01) and RPE (p < 0.05) were lower with SSrecovery compared to 1min. Vertical oscillation decrease in SSrecovery vs 1min (p < 0.01) and stride frequency in lower recovery periods compared to SSrecovery (p < 0.01). Women displayed lower stride length, distance, velocity, heart rate recovery (p < 0.001) and ight time (p < 0.05), and higher contact times, BLC and RPE (p < 0.05), and less CMJ height loss (p < 0.05) than men in all conditions. Our ndings suggest that manipulating the duration of the recovery period during a 4x4min IT leads to a 5% decrease in performance in the shorter recovery periods, greater BLC and RPE combined with a lower stride frequency and higher vertical oscillation. Women had higher metabolic and perceptive stress than men, while men suffered more mechanical fatigue. Key Points There was a decrease of 5% in performance when the duration of the recovery period was increased from 1min to 3min 20s. The shorter recovery period of recovery produced higher metabolic and perceptual load and changes in kinematic running, specially in stride frequency and vertical oscillation. The shorter recovery period induces more central fatigue in women (high concentration of BLC) and greater peripheral fatigue in men (loss of CMJ height).
