Definition
Training principles are defined as laws of sports training with the highest possible general validity. Often training principles are also described as maxims and principles of training. Training principles are therefore superior instructions for practical training, but are not the same as concrete training guidelines. The most important training principles:
- Principle of the effective stress stimulus
- Principle of progressive load
- Principle of stress and recovery
- Principle of periodization
Notice! Training principles are based on basic training theory and have no scientific basis.
Classification of the training principles
Different authors of training science use different classifications of training principles. Usually the classification is in: Another common division from the literature divides the training principles into
- Pedagogical-didactic principles
- Training principles from the theory and practice of motor performance development.
- Training principle of the effective load stimulus
- Training principle of progressive load increase
- Training principle of variation of training load
- Training principle of the optimal design of load and recovery
- Training principle of repetition and continuity
- Training principle of periodization and cyclization
- Training principle of individuality and age appropriateness
- Training principle of increasing specialization
- Training principle of the regulating interaction of individual training elements
- Training principles of the load and triggering of adaptation symptoms Training principle of the effective load stimulus Training principle of the progressive load increase Training principle of the variation of the training load
- Training principle of the effective load stimulus
- Training principle of progressive load increase
- Training principle of variation of training load
- Training principles of cyclisation to ensure adaptation Training principle of optimal design of load and recovery Training principle of repetition and continuity Training principle of periodisation and cyclisation
- Training principle of the optimal design of load and recovery
- Training principle of repetition and continuity
- Training principle of periodization and cyclization
- Training principles of specialization to specify the training Training principle of individuality and age appropriateness Training principle of increasing specialization Training principle of regulating interaction of individual training elements
- Training principle of individuality and age appropriateness
- Training principle of increasing specialization
- Training principle of the regulating interaction of individual training elements
The principle of the effective load stimulus, the principle of progressive load, the principle of the optimal design of load and recovery and the principle of periodization and cycling are of particular importance for the development of training plans in training practice.
