MONITORING AND EVALUATING REQUIRED PROGRESS
During any training process, from the recreational phase to the Olympic level, it is extremely important to have valid criteria for evaluating the current stage of an athlete's development. It is also vital to know these criteria in order to select an individual training strategy (based on specific needs /deficiencies and goals).

In reality any type of training, whether it involves maximum intensity exercises or special exercises based on calculations (interrupted test), can be used for such criteria. This "Weekly Results Progression" is another of our exclusive training tools. To use it simply enter any distance and stroke and receive the "required results progression" at that distance. The strategy may also be adjusted to be more or less aggressive. |
However, you can't fool the laws of nature or break the laws of human adaptation to physical training. The strategies we suggest have been tested on generations of athletes at all levels of competition, and are considered to be "optimum".
In addition to the ability to immediately access our on-line tools, we offer a series of sport specific tests and testing protocols, which are designed to help in the on-going and long-term evaluation of your condition. We not only provide the ability to monitor results, but also information about any changes that may need to be made in any of several physiological parameters.
As a rule, an understanding and knowledge of the following parameters is crucial for the effective management of the training process.
-
Aerobic Threshold Level of Maximum Oxygen Consumption
-
Oxygen Debt
-
Anaerobic Threshold
-
Power of Anaerobic Processes
Our tools can provide and track the required changes in these and a number of other parameters. Some parameters are only available to coaches in an off-line mode by request. We can also assist you with testing and results evaluation for teams, clubs and individual athletes, at the highest possible level that is currently available in modern sports science today.
Our off-line science tool (Training Optimization Program or TOP™) gives you additional flexibility to change training strategies to meet your needs. Please contact one of our experts for additional information about this service.
