Microdosing & high frequency training in high performance environments with @jamietallent Apprentice hours/week =25-40 @RoyalBalletSch On 25% of time threshold 50% change in Workload Next stage improve physical output ➡️ Microdosing/High Frequency training could be useful

Microdosing- High Frequency Training Fluctuations so small that fatigue or ⬇️ capacity are small in duration Key finding: attendance in S+C=⬆️ when more opportunities to train exist Physical attributes change with more opportunities to attend sessions Post class=better

Why does microdosing offer solution? (Performing Arts environment) •3x15 minute ⬆️ intensity & adaptation •Increase total work if more than x1 opportunity to train/week •⬇️ post S+C fatigue •chunk & enhance learning effect Consider: Warm-up Transition time Timetable

What to Microdose, and when @UKSCA? How to maintain/enhance physical attributes for small amount sessions in cricket? Sometimes need to 'parent' sessions-show empathy but respect needs too @jamietallent Split your generalised programme up: Consider the Environment!

What impact does strength training frequency have on strength gains? Title: Effect of Resistance Training Frequency on Gains in Muscular Strength: A Systematic Review - link.springer.com/article/10.100… Key Findings: Training Frequency and Strength Gains: Higher resistance training (RT) frequencies generally result in greater muscular strength gains. However, when total training volume is kept constant, frequency alone does not significantly impact strength gains. Upper vs. Lower Body: Increased RT frequency benefits upper body strength more than lower body strength. Individual Variability: Individual responses to different RT frequencies vary, necessitating personalized training programs. Failure vs. Non-Failure Training: Training to muscular failure does not significantly affect strength gains compared to non-failure training, though it may impact recovery times. Age and Sex Differences: Younger adults and women may benefit more from higher RT frequencies compared to older adults and men. Take-Home Messages: Volume Matters: Increasing training frequency can help boost total training volume, which is key for muscle strength development. Upper Body Focus: To maximize upper body strength, consider higher RT frequencies. Personalization is Key: Tailor RT programs to individual needs and responses. Recovery Considerations: Avoiding muscular failure may allow for higher training frequencies by improving recovery times. Targeted Training: Consider higher RT frequencies for younger individuals and women for optimal strength gains. Practical Applications: Program Design: Incorporate higher training frequencies to increase overall training volume, particularly for those aiming to enhance upper body strength. Individualized Plans: Assess individual responses and adjust training frequencies accordingly. Recovery Management: Balance training to failure with adequate recovery strategies to maintain higher training frequencies. Age-Specific Recommendations: Older adults may benefit from lower training frequencies, whereas younger adults can handle more frequent sessions. Gender-Specific Adjustments: Design RT programs with higher frequencies for women to optimize strength outcomes. This systematic review highlights the nuanced relationship between RT frequency and strength gains, emphasizing the importance of volume and individualization in training programs. Adjust your RT routine based on these insights to maximize your strength training results!

Interesting insights from @NiallMacSweeney et al at the @RoyalBalletSch on the biomechanical intricacies of CMJs and SLJs in preprofessional ballet, and how ForceDecks data helped shed new light on which metrics may correlate to a higher risk of injury. bit.ly/49DNqOq
