  2. Biomechanics of sprint running - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomechanics_of_sprint_running

    Morin et al. [12] explored the effects of fatigue on force production and force application techniques in a study where sprinters performed four sets of five 6 second sprints using the same treadmill setup as previously mentioned. Data was collected on their ability to produce ground reaction forces as well as their ability to coordinate the ...

  3. Sports periodization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_periodization

    The roots of periodization come from Hans Selye's model, known as the General adaptation syndrome (GAS). The GAS describes three basic stages of response to stress: (a) the Alarm stage, involving the initial shock of the stimulus on the system, (b) the Resistance stage, involving the adaptation to the stimulus by the system, and (c) the Exhaustion stage, in that repairs are inadequate, and a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_training

    Strength training is primarily an anaerobic activity, although circuit training also is a form of aerobic exercise. Strength training can increase muscle, tendon, and ligament strength as well as bone density, metabolism, and the lactate threshold; improve joint and cardiac function; and reduce the risk of injury in athletes and the elderly ...

    Anaerobic strength training programs can increase muscular strength, [13] power, [21] and lean body mass. [22] Decreased risk of falls and increased neuromuscular control can be attributed to balance intervention programs. [23] Flexibility programs can increase functional range of motion and reduce the risk of injury. [24]

  9. Plyometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plyometrics

    The specified minimum strength requirement varies depending on where the information is sourced and the intensity of the plyometrics being performed. Chu (1998) recommends that a participant be able to perform 50 repetitions of the squat exercise at 60% of his or her body weight before doing plyometrics. Core (abdomen) strength is also important.
