Goals of Strength Training

The type of training that is performed should be reflective of the goals and needs of each individual. Depending on one’s goals, specific training programs can target the desired results.

In general, strength-training programs can be created to enhance the following general goals;

Muscle size: A principal goal of bodybuilders. While muscle size may be aesthetically pleasing, it does not necessarily help to enhance an individual’s performance.

Muscular endurance: The ability to execute movements repeatedly. A health-related benefit of fitness and the goal of athletes who participate in endurance sports.

Muscular strength: The ability to produce force. Another health-related benefit of fitness, strength improvement assists in making physical activities, particularly the movement of heavy objects, easier.

Power: The ability to quickly produce maximal force. A performance-related benefit of fitness and the goal of athletes who partake in sports involving explosive movements.

For the most part, the differences between the training programs designed to emphasize one of these goals involves manipulating the number of sets, repetitions, and rest intervals.

Beach volleyball conditioning will activate your glutes with explosive movements to improve your agility, power and, over time, will enhance your stamina.

Most sports divide their annual training plan into four phases; off-season, pre-season, early season and late season. The training goes from general physical preparation and rest in the off-season to primarily high-intensity sport specific skills training and conditioning maintenance in the late season. Minimal sport-specific training occurs in the off-season while late season training includes minimal supplemental training.

LEANNESS & SELF-ESTEEM

Leanness, physical fitness & self-esteem are often inter-related. Leanness is a relevant term and does not mean skinny!

For many, the most important result of physical fitness is how we feel about ourselves. Regardless of individual goals, being fit is a positive self-esteem builder.

BUILD A TIGHT BOOTY WITH ATHLETIC TRAINING

Athletes in general have some of the shapeliest and toned backsides on the planet. The glutes are best activated by power and speed movements; such as dashing and jumping. Explosive sporting events such as long and triple jumping, pole vaulting, sprinting, tennis and volleyball rely heavily on powerful glutes. Having super strong glutes is a prerequisite for success in speed and power events. Bodybuilders talk about “glute day or “squat day”, for these athletes, every day is glute day!

Beach volleyball is considered an anaerobic power sport were diving, jumping and sprinting are common activities. Beach volleyball players' power development training program includes two types of activities; plyometrics (jumping drills) and weight lifting. Speed, agility and quickness (SAQ) training gives players the ability to change directions quickly and reduces the chances of injury while conducting drills with the volley ball.

Sprinting and jumping are great ways to tone your derriere and build an athletic physique. Hurdlers do both in a single event. Hurdlers are phenomenal athletes; curvy and strong, fast and fit. Using their training techniques will go a long way in developing physical skills while shaping and toning your entire body.

GENERAL CONDITIONING WORKOUT

A year-round general conditioning workout designed to gain and maintain an excellent overall state of conditioning. This workout includes exercises to develop cardiovascular endurance, core stability and maximum strength.

Cardiovascular endurance is trained and tested using a 1.5-mile run. Each 4 session cycle will include a best-effort time trial, two easy jogs and a fartlek workout. Fartlek is the Swedish word for "speed-play". During the fartlek session; the first and last half-miles are conducted as an easy jog with the middle half-mile run at a vigorous pace.

Core stability and local muscular endurance are developed and tested using abdominal crunches.

Lower body and upper body strength are developed and tested using the barbell squat and barbell bench press. The sessions are cyclic in nature; moving from reps of 5, to 3, then a 1 rep maximum lift. A one week of light lifting ends the cycle. Each work includes 3 sets of each lift. The first set is conducted at 50% of the training/max weight. The second set is conducted at 75% of the training/max weight. If you're doing sets of 5 with 100 pounds being the training weight; the first sets will be with 50 pounds, the second set at 75 pounds and the final set at 100 pounds. This protocol serves 2 purposes. First, it provides a specific warm-up using sub-maximal weight. Second, it conditions your body to lift heavier after you've already lifted. This will help reduce the risk of injury while training yourself to finish strong. The light week includes one set each at 5, 3 and 1 reps all at 50% of the normal training/max weight. As you get stronger, increase the weight in small increments and maintain the 50%-75%-100% lifting protocol.
