Theory and Methodology of trainingModule training theory
Academic Year 2022/2023 - Teacher: GIOVANNI SCARDILLIExpected Learning Outcomes
To know the theoretical principles on which the practice of physical activities is based.
To know the adaptations induced by the training of the various motor skills.
The use the theoretical principles to organize training programs.
To know training methods, means and contents.
Course Structure
Frontal lessons.
Required Prerequisites
Knowledge of physiology of exercise.
Basic knowledge of mechanics.
Detailed Course Content
Concept of Theory of training. Physical activity and exercise. Positive effects of physical activity and guidelines of WHO. Fitness: health related-components and skill-related components. Training and stress. Adaptation and General adaptation syndrome. Acute and chronic adaptation. Long-term (chronic) adaptattion: fatigue-recovery relationships. Generalized theories of training: Theory of supercompensation, Fitness-fatigue theory. Training load and variables. Training principles. Energetics: Types of energy; Energy and physical exercise. Expressions of muscular and neuromuscular activity: 1) Endurance (anaerobic and aerobic); 2)Types of muscular strength; Maximal strength, Power and strength resistance; 3) Quickness; 4) Joint mobility and flexibility; 5) Agility. Motor skill: motor learning and practice conditions. Coordinationabilities. Training plan: developmental models of athletics (LTAD di Balyi, DMSP di Cotè) and periodization. Need analysis and training program design.
