2. objectives
 To review the sport kayaking
 To Evaluate types of Training Models
 To Identify Specific stages of a periodized Model
 To Review current literature
 To Distinguish the pros and cons
 To Analyze which training model is best

4. What is a Training Model?

5. Periodized Models

6. Stages of Periodization
 Preporatory period
 Precompetition
 Competition Period
 Active Rest
 Off Season

7. Traditional Periodized method
limitations
 Excessive fatigue
 Signs of conflicting Physiological responses
 Insufficient training stimulation
 Inability to Multi Peak

8. Current literature
 (2.2+-)5.0% improvement implementing blocked
periodization
 in stuidies using kayakers showed an improvement in:
 Performance
 Stroke rate
 Paddling power

9. other variables of improvement
 Strength prep-period can be achieved to desired
 Homeostatic regulation is maintained
 increase in general adaption to program with decrease in
time.

10. Summary
 Blocked periodization fills the gap, so multi-peak
training can occur
 Aids in minimizing Fatigue
 Improves strength and endurance
 Improves homeostatic regulation
 Increases general training adaption's
