Example 1 Jason is a 23 year old male triathlete – his swimming performance is typically weak and whilst his cycling and running partly compensate for this, he’d like some advice on preparation for the World Championships in 6 months time. Provide Jason with a training programme and any potential interventions that will help to enhance his performance.
Example 2 Jackie is a 19 year old soccer player (centre midfielder), she has taken a year off after breaking her leg, but is fully recovered now. Jacqui has a goal of securing a contract with one of the professional sides in the united states. Jacqui's coach has identified that in comparison to the national team Jacqui needs to improve her speed around the field. Jacqui's aerobic fitness has been very good in the past but currently is quite low after not doing much for 6 months. Provide Jacqui with a training programme and any potential interventions that will help to enhance her performance.”
Example 3. You are the coach of the dolphins a talented regional swim squad preparing for the national championships in 6 months time. (all members of the squad swim the 200 meters freestyle) Two members of your squad are very fast at recovering between training sessions and cope with a large volume of work, whereas the other 4 members of the squad are quite slow recoverers and tend not to be able to make the target times that you expect especially later in the training week. Provide the squad with a training programme and any potential interventions that will help to enhance their performance.”
