What does tedium mean in SPORT?

Tedium (T) – athletes need variety in their training to prevent boredom but also some types of overuse injuries such as strains or even stress fractures. The principle of tedium is applied when a trainer builds variety into the training by changing the training method.

What are the 5 principles of SPORT?

Training means engaging in activity to improve performance and/or fitness; this is best accomplished by understanding general sports training principles: overload, reversibility, progression, individualization, periodization, and specificity.

What is overload specificity and progression?

Overload: work the body, or specific area, with a greater workload than normal. Progression: progressively or gradually increase the workload for improvement to continue (FITT approach) Specificity: use specific practice in order to adapt the body to the goal to be achieved.

What is sport progression?

Progression – start slowly and gradually increase the amount of exercise and keep overloading. Reversibility – any adaptation that takes place as a result of training will be reversed when you stop training. If you take a break or don’t train often enough you will lose fitness.

What is reversibility in exercise?

Reversibility – any adaptation that takes place as a result of training will be reversed when you stop training. If you take a break or don’t train often enough you will lose fitness.

What is reversibility fitness?

Reversibility is the fact that when training stops the adaptations made are lost. Adaptations are generally lost at a similar rate to which they were gained. So if an athlete has put on 10Kg of muscle in 1 month, then gets injured they will lose the muscle very quickly.

What is overload sport?

The overload principle is one of the seven big laws of fitness and training. Simply put, it says that you have to increase the intensity, duration, type, or time of a workout progressively in order to see adaptations. The adaptations are improvements in endurance, strength, or muscle size.

What are the 6 components of skill related fitness?

Skill-related fitness is broken down into six different components; agility, speed, power, balance, coordination, reaction time. These skill-related components are movements that are necessary for an individual to successfully demonstrate a variety of motor skills and movement patterns.

What is reversibility principle?

: a principle in optics: if light travels from a point A to a point B over a particular path, it can travel over the same path from B to A.

What is progression exercise?

Progressing your exercise means changing it to make it more challenging. A change in your exercise prescription could mean changing the: intensity of your exercise (making it more vigorous) duration of your exercise (making it longer) type (trying a different exercise)
