Summary
Definition of the athlete for this course: “the Sunday athlete who participates in a few races, the young soccer player who practices a few times a week, the high-level athlete”.
Traditional periodization, block, linear, wave, inverse, etc. When it’s time to plan the training for your client, you have a lot of options and it can be difficult to find your way around. In this training, we will demystify the different types of periodization, but more importantly, we will discuss the benefits of such periodization methods and how to include them in your annual planning.

The content of this webinar was very interesting. It’s been great to update my knowledge on periodization models and think about their applicability. I do wish, however, that there was more/better visual/support content available such as PDF of the presentation or a dual screen where the projection (and what was being highlighted by the teacher with her pointer) along with seeing her present.
