Resistance Training Program Design: Needs Analysis

These flashcards cover key terms and concepts related to Resistance Training Program Design, particularly focused on Needs Analysis for athletes in various sports.

Needs Analysis

A two-stage process involving evaluation of sport requirements and assessment of the athlete.

Movement Analysis

Assessment of body and limb movement patterns and muscles involved in a sport.

Physiological Analysis

Evaluates strength, power, hypertrophy, endurance, and metabolic demands.

Injury Analysis

Identification of common injuries related to sports, such as ACL injuries during change of direction.

Training Status

Evaluation of an athlete's training background and exercise history.

Beginner Status

An athlete who has not trained or has just begun training.

Intermediate Status

An athlete currently training for 2-6 months with moderate resistance experience.

Advanced Status

An athlete with at least 1 year of consistent training and high resistance experience.

Physical Testing and Evaluation

Assessment of athletic and physical fitness parameters.

SMART Goals

A goal-setting system: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound.

Off-Season Training Goals

Focus on hypertrophy and muscular endurance initially; strength and power later.

Preseason Training

Medium priority in sport practice and resistance training.

In-Season Training Goals

High intensity for sports practice, low for resistance training.

Postseason Training

Variable training focusing on recovery and maintenance.

Female Collegiate Basketball Player Profile

In-season athlete with a focus on strength and power.

Resistance Training Program Frequency (Beginner)

Training frequency of 1-2 times per week.

Resistance Training Program Frequency (Intermediate)

Training frequency of 2-3 times per week.

Resistance Training Program Frequency (Advanced)

Training frequency of 3-4 times per week.

Physiological Requirement for a Basketball Player

Strength and power due to the nature of the sport.

Resistance Training status Example 1

Beginner: Under 2 months training; low physiological stress.

Resistance Training status Example 2

Intermediate: 2-6 months training; moderate physiological stress.

Resistance Training status Example 3

Advanced: 1 year of training with high physiological stress.

Physiological Requirement for a Football Lineman

Hypertrophy due to the demands of the sport.

Total Exercises for Advanced Football Lineman

8 exercises with 3 core and 5 assistance movements.

Training Load for Postseason Football Lineman

Higher training volume due to the demands of American football.

Physiological Requirement for Cross Country Runner

Muscular endurance due to repetitive running motions.

Training Background of Beginner Cross Country Runner

Just started resistance training; limited skill in exercises.

Resistance Training Frequency for Cross Country Athlete

3 times per week during preseason.

Training Goal for Beginner Cross Country Runner

Focus on muscular endurance.

Resistance Training Goal for Female Basketball Player

Strength/power development during in-season.

Resistance Training Goal for Male Football Lineman

Hypertrophy during off-season.

Resistance Training Training Styles

Varies by athlete and sport requirements.

Importance of Needs Analysis

Identifies specific training requirements for the athlete and sport.

Resistance Training Session Design

Focus on relevant exercises according to movement patterns and muscular demands.
