Sports and exercise psychology
▪ The key focus is on the development of mental skills -the ability for individuals to understand and use their minds to improve their performances and enjoyment.
TOPIC: BASIC PRINCIPLE OF EXERCISE
PRINCIPLE OF PROGRESSION
• States that as your body adopts to your exercise routine , you have to change it up.
• This can mean gradually increasing the weight , duration or intensity of your weight training in order to see growth
THE PRINCIPLES OF OVERLOAD
• To improve any aspects of physical fitness the Individual must continually increase the demands placed on the appropriate body systems
FREQUENCY PRINCIPLE OF EXERCISE
• This refers to how often you exercise. Th point is to meet your goals without overtiming the body.
• When it comes to cardio: As a general rule of thumb, aim for a minimum of three cardio sessions per week. If you’re looking to lose weight, you might increase this number to five to six sessions.
• When it comes to strength training: It’s recommended to do some sort of strength training three to four times per week. Strength training can involve the use of weights (even bodyweight workouts), resistance, barbells, or machines.
• Also includes rest days: Also account for rest days when putting together your plan. It’s important to give your muscles a chance to recover.
INTENSITY
• This refers to how difficult an exercise is.
• When it comes to strength training
• If you’re new to an exercise program, you don’t want to make the plan too challenging. This could lead to injury or burnout.
• Start at a level that feels comfortable, and then gradually increase the difficulty as your strength and endurance builds.
• With strength training, there are three primary methods you can use to measure intensity:
• amount of weight lifted
• number of repetitions completed
• number of sets
When it comes to cardio
• To measure how hard you’re working during a cardiovascular exercise, you can look to your heart rate, which is measured by beats per minute (bpm).
• This starts with determining your target heart rate zone for your fitness level and age. The heart rate zone you’re meant to target is based on a percentage of your maximum heart rate (MHR).
1. Find your max heart rate (MHR) To find your MHR, use this calculation: 220 minus your age = MHR. For example, if you’re 25 years old, your MHR is 195 (220 – 25 = 195 MHR).
2. Find your target heart rate zone According to Harvard Health, aerobic exercise is when your heart rate reaches between 70 and 85 percent of your MHR. You’re also getting a workout when your heart rate reaches 50 to 70 percent of your MHR.
TIME
This refers to the duration of each exercise.
• Experts recommend Trusted Source at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or at least 75 minutes of high-intensity exercise a week.
• This can look like 30 minutes of moderate exercise or 15 minutes of intense exercise a day.
• Of course, you can increase or
This talk was done in conjunction with Central Mass Physical Therapy (CMPT) and Dr Judson Brewer as part of CMPT's mindfulness clinic during the late winter of 2019.
A discussion focused on the key mindset's related to achieving and sustaining high performance in endurance sports... which is chased by a few key training reminders from the physical perspective.
This seminar focused on how to use scientifically sound, but very practical strategies to monitor your readiness to train. The goal, is for attendees to leave the seminar better able to adjust their training prior to becoming excessively fatigued.
Prior to a focus race or event, performing a taper will allow you to maximize your performance. Tapers are a carefully planned period of training that lead to a major reduction in fatigue, thus leading to a significant increase in freshness and performance. This seminar describes how to execute a good taper, including some examples of successful tapers in cycling, triathlon and running.

Long Slow Distance OR High
Intensity: What’s Better? (For you)
2. Getting Started
• Discuss volume and intensity
in the context of the training
process overall.
• This starts out general…
• Then we will look at issues
which lead to specific
variations/adjustments in how
YOU could apply volume and
intensity within your training
program.
• Finish up with a review of a
few “Second Level” strategies
that can help you perform
your best.
3. “What is a training program?”
A systematic approach to stressing
an athlete such that they
progressively adapt to specific
workout stress in a way that
allows them to perform at their
best at a specific competitive
event or series of competitive
events at a predictable time.
4. For best results:
Set up training to facilitate recovery,
not just to maximize work accomplished.
5. The Variables Constituting a Training Program
Volume Intensity Frequency Load
Total accumulated
training via duration or
distance
How much work
(velocity/power/HR)
you accomplish per unit
time. Not effort, which
is how you the accruing
stress of a workout feels
knowing what you have
done, and still plan on
accomplishing.
How many times you
workout during a
specific period of time.
The combination of
volume and intensity.
Assessed via TRIMPS,
sRPE, TSS
Builds aerobic enzymes,
mitochondria density,
capillary density,
decreases (good) type I
fiber diameter, increases
IIa fiber aerobic ability,
increases glycogen
content of muscle,
increases time to
fatigue, increases
VO2mx and “threshold”.
Same as volume, but
also increases acid
buffering ability,
economy, aerobic ability
of IIa/b fibers and
fatigue resistance of IIa
and b fibers and in high
level athletes, it’s the
primary thing to
increase “threshold”
and power or velocity
at VO2mx.
Ties volume and
intensity into a tangible
plan.
Intermingles with both
volume and intensity
improving fatigue
resistance and technical
skill acquisition.

stress.
Real World:
INCLUDES non training
specific stress like PT,
work stress, life stress,
dietary stress,

Stimulates Stimulates
8. If Intensity and volume do the same thing…
then what’s the difference?
The amplitude and angle of the adaptations caused by each approach!
• High intensity training
– Increases the rate of energy production you can accomplish.
– Increases your ability to handle the byproducts of fatigue.
– Increases economy and work capacity, thus making lower intensities
less challenging mechanically and metabolically.
• Low intensity (volume based) training
– Reduces the build up of the byproducts of fatigue.
– Increases overall recovery rate.
– Increases the rate of energy produced from fat during exercise.
NOTE: These adaptations overlap!
9. The Impact of Intensity and Volume on
Training and Recovery
Factor Hi Intensity Volume (low
intensity)
Recovery Time
Needed
Hi Low-Moderate
Training Stimulus Hi Low-Moderate
Adaptation lifespan Long Short
Frequency Needed Low-Moderate (3-6) High (5-9)
Duration Needed Low-Moderate High
Summary: Training with low intensity requires a relatively high frequency and volume
of work to work best. Training with high intensity requires a relatively low amount of
high intensity training to work best.
10. You can not train @ high intensity as often as low intensity due
to the recovery demands placed upon you by each.
The harder you work, the more muscle fibers you fatigue and fuel
you use, thus, the greater the stimulus for adaptation, the need for
recovery and the duration of training effect are hi with HIT.
11. Building on the single workout model just reviewed…
keep in mind that when…
Intensity up, volume down…
Volume up, intensity down!
Lower Intensity Higher Intensity
LowerVolumeHigherVolume
12. The fitter you get, the less duration of intensity is
needed, but the higher it needs to be to improve
endurance performance.

13. • Youtubeification of Sport (Ie,
it plays well on youtube)
• Often the middle is believed
to be high/very high
intensity
• Provides instant gratification
• Visible fatigue is glorified
Uh Oh… “We” like the
middle – it feels like “we
are doing something”.
14. Aim for a “polarized” hard – easy pattern spread over
the training period rather than doing monotonous load.
Avoid Chronic Load Syndrome
Source: Derek Hansen
15. We train with more than 1 workout… How does that impact the
influence of intensity and duration on performance?
16. • What have you done?
(Training history)
• Do you recover fast or
slow?
• Life logistics/stress?
(how much time do you
have)
• Training/racing goals?
(what are you trying to
do)
• ST / FT???
Since they work best in conjunction with each other, the
question then becomes: volume or intensity…
What’s best for you?
17. Your History?
• Training history impacts performance
– Where you have been, provides insight on where you can go.
– How long have you trained in your current sport?
• The longer you have done your sport, the harder gains will be, and the
likely hood that you can do a greater total training load is higher.
• Provides clues to your injury resistance.
– How long have you trained consistently in a similar sport?
• If you ran competitively in high school and college and after college
prior to cycling, you are more aerobically ready than a total newbie to
endurance sports.
– What sports have you done for significant periods in your life?
• High school, college, out of college? Soccer? Track? Cycling?
Swimmer? Hoops? Football?
• Provides clues about your movement abilities, injury resistance, fiber
type dominance, and injury history
18. How do you recover?
• Your adaptation “profile” (slow / fast responder)
– Slow recovery rate = less intensity is possible. Longer low
intensity training focus is likely best for you.
– Fast recovery rate = more frequent intensity. Even if
training for very long races, doing frequent intensity bouts
will be best for you. (not every day!)
– Based on questions on or observations of your past.
NOTE: Changes over time (fitter = faster relative to you,
increases in age and life stress slow recovery down relative
to you)
19. What’s your non training load?
• Your life (stress load and logistics)
– All the time in the world / low stress = higher volume and
intensity
– Some time / moderate stress = moderate volume / greater
% of total time at high intensity
– Minimal time / moderate stress = low volume / high % of
total time at high intensity.
– High stress regardless of time = low volume / a high % of
time at high intensity, but minimal total amounts of
training.
20. What are you training for (goal)?
• Short races?
– Moderate amount of low intensity volume,
moderate duration of high intensity work.
• Mid distance races?
– Moderately high amount of low intensity volume,
moderate-low duration of high intensity work.
• Long races?
– High amount of low intensity volume, low-
moderate amount of high intensity work.
21. Are you ST or FT dominant?
• What type are you?
– Muscle Biopsy (OUCH!!!)
– Past sport tendencies/success/likes can provide a broad estimate
– Can do some field tests (85% of 1RM strength test) but broad
estimates work.
– The fiber type you possess most will impact how you respond to
training, and the biases needed in your training for you to perform
best.
– You still need to progress to the race you target… but how you
approach it, your distribution of work, can change to improve recovery
and adaptation.
22. Differences based on FT/ST
estimation?
FT Group ST Group
More FT fibers = less able to use oxygen
to fuel work.
More ST fibers = more able to use oxygen
to fuel work
Faster rate of carbohydrate metabolism
during exercise
Carbohydrate use rate increases more
rapidly at higher intensity exercise.
Quicker to accumulate acid during
exercise as intensity climbs
Slower to accumulate acid during exercise
as intensity climbs
Greater ability to accelerate rapidly. Not extremely good at accelerating
rapidly.
Given lower aerobic potential, recovery
rate is slower from all intensities of work.
Higher aerobic potential means that
recovery rate is faster from all intensities
of work.

prevent excess load and help understand your
adaptation profile… IE: How does what you do
impact how you can do!
26. Summing Things Up
• You need volume and intensity to
fully prepare for endurance sport.
• The amount of each, is dependent on
your training age, training status
(current), lifestyle, genes and goal.
• You need to respect YOUR recovery
needs as a major priority in your
training!
• You can use “tricks” to create
additional gains or be better
prepared for a specific race.
Should I focus on doing increasing volumes of low intensity training to get faster…
Should I focus on hammering interval workout after interval workout to get faster…
THEY ARE BOTH RIGHT!
Lets look at why each can work, and then why ultimately, the combination is the best approach.
Intensity has to be discussed relative to volume and total training program.
Volume is the duration of training accumulated either in time or distance per workout and training phase.
--Done appropriately (at low intensity), actually helps facilitate recovery
--Builds aerobic enzymes, mitochondria density, capillary density, decreases (good) type I fiber diameter, increases IIa fiber aerobic ability, increases glycogen content of muscle, increases time to fatigue, increases VO2mx and “threshold”.
Intensity is how much work you are accomplishing per unit time.
--Difference between intensity and effort.
--Hi intensity builds all the things lower intensity volume builds, but also increases acid buffering ability, economy, builds aerobic ability of IIa/b fibers and fatigue resistance of IIa and b fibers and in athletes beyond the moderately trained level, this is the primary thing that will increase “threshold” and power or velocity at VO2mx.
Frequency of training is how often you workout – which is a major factor both in accumulating volume, in your ability to create intensity and in particular, your ability to recover and adapt to training.
Volume and intensity sum to yield training load: V * I = L
Intensity, for this discussion, can be broken into 3 parts:
HI: MLSS/FTP/OBLA up to max.
Time trialing, 5k-10k race, 6’ and shorter intervals with short rest periods, vVO2max / wVO2max intervals
Med: between aerobic and lactate threshold (if lab measured – which is lower than what “threshold” testing shows by a solid margin)
Tempo workouts, long intervals, race pace work.
Low: below aerobic threshold or roughly below 75% of MLSS/FTP/OBLA
Long workouts, moderate intensity workouts, steady, comfortable all day pace training.
Training with high intensity stimulates AMPK pathway to lead to PCG-α mediated improvements in endurance ability.
Training with low intensity and high volume stimulates CaMK pathway to lead to PCG-α mediated in endurance ability.
Yes – both volume and intensity trigger different adaptive switches to create positive changes in variables associated with endurance performance! SAME result in endurance performance ability.
Low intensity workouts – even with solid volume, are relatively quick to be recovered from. This means 3 things: 1, the stimulus to adapt to that workout when doing low intensity work is low; 2, being relatively low stimulus, the recovery process is fairly fast from a low intensity workout and; 3, the adaptations from low intensity work have a shorter lifespan compared to higher intensity adaptations. Because of those 3 things, relatively high frequency and volume of low intensity work are required to reap the best rewards of this work.
Hi intensity workouts are slower to recover from. This means 3 things: they are a very high stimulus for improvement, they take a significant period of time to recover from, the adaptations they create have a longer lifespan than low intensity adaptations. Because of those 3 things, relatively low frequency of high intensity workouts are needed to reap the rewards of this work.
Generally speaking, pending training age, fiber type dominance estimate, training history, you can likely perform and recover from 3-6 high intensity workouts in a week, and about 5-9 low intensity workouts per week. In combination, the numbers of each that are doable decrease.
