In the competitive world of Strength & Conditioning, ensuring athletes perform at their peak with minimal fatigue throughout a contest is a challenge every coach faces. The HIIT Manual by Mladen Jovanovic delivers practical, scientifically backed solutions for this long-standing issue through the principles of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT).
This comprehensive manual is divided into two main sections: HIIT Basics and HIIT Planning.
HIIT Basics covers key topics such as:
- Understanding the Endurance Map and essential HIIT terminology.
- The necessary equipment for testing and prescribing HIIT conditioning.
- Interpreting the Velocity Profile.
- Estimating critical HIIT parameters for accurate prescription and athlete profiling.
- How to properly prescribe HIIT, including adjustments for start loss and change of direction (COD) loss, and grouping athletes effectively.
- A range of HIIT drills, including long intervals, short intervals, tempo training, sprint interval training, repeat sprint training, and intermittent recovery.
HIIT Planning introduces the concept of Agile Periodization, a framework designed to manage uncertainty in training. The planning section discusses:
- Managing uncertainties in training schedules and execution.
- Three levels of analysis: phenomenological, mechanistical, and physiological.
- Strategies for determining what to do and when to do it using simple heuristics.
- A top-up approach for planning HIIT conditioning.
With The HIIT Manual, you'll gain the tools to select, design, and plan HIIT programs tailored to both individual and team sports, ensuring your athletes maximize performance with precision.
