Paperback. Sport scientists have known since periodization training first emerged that timing is critical to achieving peak athletic performance. Timing Resistance Training for Peak Performance goes beyond this to guide you through the premise of muscle clocks and the manipulation of those clocks to control and improve muscle performance. Not just another periodization book, this essential text teaches you how to manipulate these muscle clocks so you can train and perform at your best every day. The text teaches you how to view muscles as systems that can be trained to "think" by delivering timing cues that tell them when to activate key actions that influence the entire body. Following this, the text shows you how to cue those internal clocks with purposeful training methods like biomechanical pairing of exercises, complex training and concurrent training. The books also discusses rest as an integral training variable and the concept of undertraining.The final chapters offer tools for you to create your own training programmes for strength, power and flexibility. As well as, sample single-session workouts, weekly workouts and long-term programming routines.With Timing Resistance for Peak Performance, you can become more purposeful in planning and utilizing strategic timing to get the most out of muscle clocks to achieve optimal performance. Timing Resistance Training goes beyond periodization to guide readers through the premise of muscle clocks and how those clocks can be manipulated to control and improve muscle performance.

Riassunto

Since periodization training’s emergence in the 1950s, sport scientists have known that timing is one of the most critical programming variables influencing peak athletic performance. Modern research has taken the application of timing to exercise programming in a new direction, discovering the existence of time clocks inside each of the more than 600 skeletal muscles. Timing Resistance Training examines how these internal clocks use cues provided through exercise programming to regulate physiological processes for better performance.

Not just another periodization book, Timing Resistance Training teaches you how to manipulate muscle clocks to train and perform at your best every day—right down to the specific time of day that is best for your body. You will learn to view the muscles as proactive independent physiological systems that can be trained to “think” by delivering timing cues to muscles that tell them when to activate key physiological actions that influence the entire body.

Then you will learn how to cue those internal clocks with purposeful training methods like biomechanical pairing of exercises, complex training, and concurrent training. The book addresses rest as an integral training variable and explores the timing of activity–rest cycles versus recuperation only. The text also discusses the concept of undertraining, an intentional program design adjustment that uses the ability of muscle to anticipate training.

The final chapters offer tools to create your own training programs for strength, power, and flexibility. These chapters include sample single-session workouts, weekly workouts, and long-term programming routines. With Timing Resistance Training, you can become more purposeful in planning and better utilize strategic timing to get the most out of muscles clocks and achieve optimal performance.

CE exam available! For certified professionals, a companion continuing education exam can be completed after reading this book. The Timing Resistance Training Online CE Exam may be purchased separately or as part of the Timing Resistance Training With CE Exam package that includes both the book and the exam.
