* :icon28::icon28::icon28:Overtraining
o Do not use workouts that are too long or too intense
o Cycle durations and intensities
o Change workouts periodically
o Recognize individual differences in fitness levels and genetics
:icon28::icon28::icon28: * Undertraining
o Train with proper intensity, durations, and frequency specific to training goal(s)
* Using exercises and work-rate intensities that are not sport specific
:icon28::icon28::icon28::icon28: o Understand the law of specificity
* Failure to plan long-term training schedules to achieve specific goals
:santa_1: o Periodize training goals
o Plan and record training schedule designed to achieve specific fitness objectives in stages at various times throughout the year
* Failure to regularly assess efficacy of training program
o Utilize test(s) that accurately assess performance or fitness component(s)
o Test training objectives periodically and modify program accordingly
+ Allow adequate time for improvements
# Change must be greater than measurement error
+ Do not wait too long between assessments
# only to discover little progress was achieved
* Failure to taper training prior to a competition
o Reduce training intensity and volume several days prior to an event
o Tapering increases performance by providing recovery time
+ Muscles resynthesize glycogen to maximal levels
+ Muscles and joints to recuperate from training induced damage
