A hierarchy for training Principles and Exercises selection for optimising motor control, force capability and sport performance

Aim of this model Provide DOs/coaches/Contract S&C coaches a “How to” method for progressing

Aim of this model Provide DOs/coaches/Contract S&C coaches a “How to” method for progressing athletes Provide a framework to encourage a focus on movement quality rather than load Provide basic principles of competency for each fundamental movement that are true for many variations Ensure athletes enter Pathway with a wide skill set of movements, rather than 1 -2 they have overemphasised

Hierarchy of movement progression Specificity Force Capability Variability – context, speed, fatigue, ROM, Planes

Hierarchy of movement progression Specificity Force Capability Variability – context, speed, fatigue, ROM, Planes of movement Motor Control – safe, stable skill

Stage 1: Motor Learning Aim: Movement Competency Fundamental movement/motor patterns Squat, Hinge, Push, Pull,

Stage 1: Motor Learning Aim: Movement Competency Fundamental movement/motor patterns Squat, Hinge, Push, Pull, Brace, Rotate, Jump/Land, Key coaching principles for each Constraints led approach Choose the best exercise to achieve the desired outcome (eg. goblet squat, overhead squat, back squat) learning/challenging/loading

Stage 2: Variability of Movement: Aim: Increase Bandwidth Stretch the bandwidth of the motor

Stage 2: Variability of Movement: Aim: Increase Bandwidth Stretch the bandwidth of the motor pattern Varying Contexts (eg. Symmetric Goblet, asymmetric goblet, front, back, overhead squad) Varying Speed (Tempo) Fatigue (eg. Increased volume, pre-fatigue, circuit) Coaching athlete to maintain principles regardless of context

Stage 3: Force Capability Aim: Increase Size/Speed/Strength Force = mass x acceleration Increase the

Stage 3: Force Capability Aim: Increase Size/Speed/Strength Force = mass x acceleration Increase the force capabilities Strength-speed Speed-strength Speed Hypertrophy

Stage 4: Specificity Aim: Carryover to Sport Skills Contraction type Contraction angle Contraction range

Stage 4: Specificity Aim: Carryover to Sport Skills Contraction type Contraction angle Contraction range of motion Contraction speed Decision making Integration into sport skill (Special Strength training) Chaos

Principles of Squatting Key Principles: Squat to depth: hip crease below knee Heels flat

Principles of Squatting Key Principles: Squat to depth: hip crease below knee Heels flat Symmetry left to right Knees out (eg. No valgus/knock knees) Neutral Spine Balanced weight distribution

Example Skill: Squat Maximise Transfer Improve Load, Speed, Workload Interference: Varying types Control: Tempo,

Example Skill: Squat Maximise Transfer Improve Load, Speed, Workload Interference: Varying types Control: Tempo, Bands, Asymmetry Fatigue: Volume, Circuit Demonstrate Key Principles Can we improve skill performance? Can we increase force? Are the principles stable in different conditions? Have we nailed the principles?
