Deep dives
Understanding Traditional Linear Periodization
Traditional linear periodization focuses on increasing training intensity while decreasing volume as athletes approach competition. In the off-season, athletes engage in higher volume training aimed at hypertrophy and strength endurance, typically performing exercises in the 8 to 12 rep range with multiple sets. As the competitive season nears, the training shifts to lower volume and higher intensity, prioritizing power-based loading to prepare for performance. This method's systematic approach has roots in Soviet Olympic training, allowing athletes to build general qualities before transitioning to sport-specific training.
