Should we individualize training based on force-velocity profiling to improve physical performance in athletes?
The present study aimed to examine the effectiveness of an individualized training program based on force-velocity (FV) profiling on jumping, sprinting, strength, and power in athletes. Forty national level team sport athletes (20 ± 4years, 83 ± 13 kg) from ice-hockey, handball, and soccer completed a 10-week training intervention. A theoretical optimal squat jump (SJ)-FV-profile was calculated from SJ with five different loads (0, 20, 40, 60, and 80 kg). Based on their initial FV-profile, athletes were randomized to train toward, away, or irrespective (balanced training) of their initial theoretical optimal FV-profile. The training content was matched between groups in terms of set x repet…

Master's thesis Sports Science ME517 - University of Agder 2019 INTRODUKSJON.Optimalisering av muskulær power-produksjon har blitt vurderttil å være en essensiell del av prestasjon i ulike idretter, men det foreligger lite litteratur på utøvere på nasjonalt nivå. På bakgrunn av dette,er målet med studien å sammenlikne hvilkettreningsprogram (kraftdominert, hastighetsdominert eller balansert) som er mest gunstig for å øke kraft-hastighetsparametre (F0, V0& Pmax)og vertikal hopphøyde. METODE.Trettifem mannlige elite-utøvere ble rekruttert og delt med stratifisert randomisering ut ifraderes kraft-hastighetsprofil inn i tre ulike treningsgrupper(kraftdominert, hastighetsdominert og balansert), …
