Modern athletes are tolerating higher training volumes than previously recorded.500-900 hours per year9-17 hours/weekHow are they doing that? Let’s find out.Trend #2: Specific, precise training loads and better training qualityMore precise and calculated training modelsTID has trended toward a greater proportion of low intensity trainingControlling Intensity"One of the trends observed by many of the scientists was more of the intense training being performed in a “controlled zone,” thereby allowing higher volume and/or frequency of sessions at competition-relevant speeds."Individualization = Quality**Individualized sweet spot for volume and intensity**Load prescription, periodization, daily programmingDebriefing routines after trainingLarger support staff who collaborate closely Better tech drives more individualizationPrecision in measuring intensity with power meters, measuring recovery with wearablesData collection and analysis to guide training and recovery prescriptionsInjuries have become less frequent and allowed for more continuous training Warm up more – raise your body temperatureBetter load-management strategies from athletes and coaches (less frequent dramatic spikes in loading)Trend #3: Better understanding of sport-specific demands and competition executionFueling to meet the demandIncluding individualization of nutritionBetter pacing strategies -more aware of physiological indicators of sustainability (e.g. heat, lactate, heart rate)-more individualization of pacing strategyTechnology assisting our understanding of performance-power meters-GPS-inertial movement unitsTrend #4: More professional and healthier lifestylesMore vocational More time for training and recovery, less time spent doing other thingsThis likely contributes to the lower injury rates Suspected: Fewer psychosocial stressorsHigher value for sleepResources:https://journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/ijspp/18/8/article-p885.xmlhttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40279-023-01850-zhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31431273/https://meridian.allenpress.com/jat/article/55/9/885/444131/Training-Load-and-Its-Role-in-Injury-Preventionhttps://www.frontiersin.org/journals/physiology/articles/10.3389/fphys.2017.00564/fullhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36930212/
