Preface and Introduction SECTION I General Health and Resistance Exercise Considerations General Resistance Exercise Advice Who Should Establish a Goal of General Fitness? If you are looking for a self-improvement exercise program, and you are a non-athlete, chances are you fall into one of three categories. First, you may be over-weight. If this is the case, fat loss may be your goal of choice. If you are under-weight, weight gain may be your goal of choice. Finally, if you are not grossly over, or under weight, and as stated earlier, you are a non-athlete then general fitness will quite likely be your goal of choice.

    Ultimate Frisbee Workout Guide Intro Why You Need This Guide Many ultimate players aren’t getting the best results from their workouts. Often simply because they’ve gotten stuck doing the same things they did in high school. Or perhaps they’ve bought into a popular general fitness plan because the marketing makes it seem reasonable enough. If you think that might be you, then the great news is you’ve likely got loads of untapped athletic potential waiting to be unleashed on the frisbee field. Even if you’re already pretty experienced in working out, even if you’re experienced in the weight room, there is still more potential in you to become faster and jump higher than you realize. I know this is true because I’ve seen it happen for hundreds of ultimate players, and I’d like it to happen for you too. That’s what this guide is all about. I’m going to help you understand the principles behind athletic adaptation so that you design an ultimate frisbee training schedule that WORKS. Best of all, this does not require hours and hours of running. In fact, some of the ultimate frisbee workouts you’ll be doing are likely easier than what you’re doing now. If you like the idea of training smarter so you can get more results in less training time, then this guide is for you. www.TheUAP.com Who am I?

  • Level 2 Chapter 5 – General Fitness Training
    5 General Fitness Training 5.1 Introduction Fitness may be defined as the successful adaptation to mental and physical stress encountered in life. General Fitness Training may be defined as a scientifically-based and systematic training programme to provide the athlete with the basic means to adapt to the physical load encountered through controlled exercise. Adaptation begins by subjecting the body to a physical load through controlled exercise. Subjecting the body to a sufficient level of physical activity, to cause fatigue, provides the load on the body. After the body has had an opportunity to recover by resting, the body will adapt to this load. The adaptation will now allow the body to be subjected to the same load without becoming fatigued. 5.2 Main features of sport training Goal-oriented Training should always be aimed at achieving an increased individual performance level. Group training Although training is an individual matter, training in groups is more economical and provides the necessary emotional support for mobilising performance potential. Effective training A training programme that provides for increasing physical demands on the athlete will be more effective in developing the athlete’s fitness level. Systematic training A training programme must be orderly in method or planning. Scientific training A training programme must be based on scientific principles. Role of the coach The coach’s responsibility is to assist the athlete in all aspects and forms of training. 5.3 Main features of general fitness training Mobility The first consideration in examining general fitness training is mobility. Mobility is defined as the capacity of joints and joint chains for flexion and extension.
