Training methods
Because running is not just running. Depending on whether you are an 800m or marathon runner, the requirements for your physiology are different. Accordingly, at the beginning of this module, we review some of the basics regarding endurance performance, energy supply, training zones, and stress parameters from the basic module of sports competence.
Based on this knowledge, you will learn about the different methods of endurance training and understand which methods are suitable for which purpose. To find the right method for yourself or your clients, it is important to first familiarize yourself with the different methods and understand their training effects.
These include interval training, tempo training, strength training, and endurance training.
We will also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each method and practice them in real-life scenarios. This course aims to shed light on some of the most common mistakes runners make and how to avoid them. We will also introduce some training methods that aim to improve performance and maintain health.
For future running trainers, this is a very important subject to support their clients in achieving their goals.
After completing this module, you will be able to:
- assess the requirements profile for different types of runners
- make statements about meaningful training methods
- prescribe intensity distributions (depending on the individual goals of the athletes)
