Sports periodization has traditionally focused on the exercise aspect of athletic preparation,
while neglecting the integration of other elements that can impact an athlete's readiness for …

The process of strength–power training and the subsequent adaptation is a multi-factorial
process. These factors range from the genetics and morphological characteristics of the …

Purpose To describe training variations across the annual cycle in Olympic and World
Champion endurance athletes, and determine whether these athletes used tapering …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine, i) the reliability of blood lactate and
ventilatory-based thresholds, ii) the lactate threshold that corresponds with each ventilatory …

The present review introduces innovative concepts of training periodization and summarizes
a large body of findings characterizing their potential benefits and possible limitations …

Recently, the comparison of “periodized” strength training methods has been a focus of both
exercise and sport science. Daily undulating periodization (DUP), using daily alterations in …

During the last several decades many researchers have reported an interference effect on
muscle strength development when strength and endurance were trained concurrently. The …

Our objective is to highlight some key physiological determinants of endurance exercise
performance and to discuss how these can be further improved. V̇ o 2max remains …
