There are other factors which are necessary for poo, performance in sports such as special rehabilitation treatments, use of supplementay, extra-training, extra-competitions, means of assessment of performance capacity, special nutrition, psychological factors, ete. So, in order to achieve the best results all the above. mentioned factors are to be used along with physica! exorei Sports training must he understood as a specialised process of all-cound physica strengthening aimed at the preparation of sportsperson far performiince in games ang systematic and regular process, whieh is generally used fop orts training should be based on scientific facts if we want to gab sults in competition, If that is not possible, it should he based on the reoulte of successful practices Definitions of Sports Training The following definitions may be helpful to understand the meaning of sports trainings According to Matwejew, is the basic form of preparation of sportsiien.® According to Martin nned and controlled process in which, for ing a goal, chang jotor performance, ability to act and behaviour ade through m es of content, methods and organisation."

The knowledge from the above-mentioned sub-disciplines of physical education to be applied into actual practice: The principles of sports training assist in the: task applying the knowledge of these sub-disviplines into practice. These principles of: ning serve as directives for the coaches and sportspersons. For the formulation of training process, the important principles of training are described below. 1. The Principle of Continuity: According to this principle, training should be ® continuous process. There should not be any break. In fact, there should not be # Jong period of inaetivity. [t has been observed that discontinuity of training reduces Saraswart Hiavitw ann Puesiteat Bnycarion--X1 logical capacities of sportspersons. asions should be maximum of Overload: The principle of overload yal london the body as y i long this, th butnottoolong, et between two prarnink principle ne Princ ates that there should he # adaptation to take place. ae He for improving the performance {cannot improve the performance, Ifthe severe of the load diminishes with the passage adaptation of load, It: means that forthe nal the training load should be increased after japtation of previous training load.

Itean only maintain the auious improvement of perf the must W she Pe inciple of Individual Differences: According to this prindple, event sportsperser due to individual differenves, Rach sportsperson's response exercise or load will definitely vary. So, a training programme should be modified totake individual differences into following considerations. (@) Large muscles heal slower than smaller muscles: t twitch muscle fibres recover quicker than slow twitch muscle fibres (¢) Fast or explosive movements require more recovery time than slow movements, The Principle of General and Specific Preparation: For the improvement of performance, both the general and specific preparations are equally significant. General preparation serves as the base for specific preparation. Asa matter of fact. the performance will he better if the hase is better. The general preparation increases functional capacity of all the body systems and organs. Specific preparation is then further required to improve those systems and organs on which the performance of'sportspersons directly depends. For example, the speed improved through running Will also be beneficial in football The Principle of Progression: According to this principle, the overload should not be increased too rapidly. If the overload is increased too rapidly, tt may result in injury or muscle damage. Exercising above the target zone can be dangerous. The principle of progression also mak valise the need for proper rest and recover The constant ad can lead to exhaustion.and injury . The Principle of Specificity: This principle states that exercising a certain part oF component of the hody primarily develops that part It means that to hecome better te particular exercise or skill, you must perform that exercise or skill, Por exainple, @runner should get trained by running wimmer by swimming and a cyclist byeyeling, The Principle of Active In Ofathiete's efforts and coach's skill.

After training cooling down helps in transferring blood from, Working muscles back to vital organs of the body, It ia aleo fecessary for removing the waste products, The Principle of Rest and Recovery: We are well aware of the fact that the body Fegenerates during rest and booomes better and stronger than before. So the traiting Programmes should be conceived in such a way thatthere should be proper restand interval between training activities. nsuring Results: The apex dith of sports training is to attain nd results, It can be said that sports training's aim is to enable the sportsperson to put up better performance in the competitions, Therefore, this principle aims At guarantesing good performance and maintaining it for longer period. However without implementation of other principles, this principle cannot be applied. Sey proper stress should he laicl on the implementution of other principles by the cough. or physical education teach The Principle of Cyclicity:Sports training programmes are developad through: various training cycles such as macro eyele, meso cycle and micro eyole, Macro cycle is the longest cycle of training, the duration of which is 3 to 12 months approximately, Meso cycle is a training eycle for medium duration and may be 3 to 6 weeks, Micro cycleis the shortest duration cycle which may be for 3to 10 days. Meaning ofWarming-up Warming-up is usually performed to do an activity in most refined and efficient way. Ee is short-term activity and it is done prior to any competition or training, It helps the: sportsperson to prepare physically, mentally and physiologically far any type of training or competition.

"Warming-up isa practice in itself." “Warming-up is done to tone up the body so as to meet the ensuing activity,” "Warming-up consists of a series of preparatory exercises either before @ session or competition.” "Warming-iep is a process of Keating the whole body by running ana perfor exercises prior tothe activity or competition, * ‘Warming-ip is @ preliminary exercise of physical and mental preparation strenuous exertion.” Shuswan Heaven axe Piesicay, Roucarion—X1 s by which human machine is brought to a condition at which nerves impulses of the person for quick and efficient action." svormins rope respond Vries concludes in his research study that warming-up increases temperature of nd ancl muscles improve the performance ig Hill says thal “ifnarmal temperature of body is decreased slightly, the reaction time rifbe increased, contractile time will also be increased and extension of museles will Feiss anc ifbod) temiperattire is increased than normal temperature, then contractile jjrceand speed of muscles willbe increased. Jan bernncluded that w: esngor competition to prepare well physically, mentally and psychologically. serch scholirs arnd physical educationists are divided on the issue of warming-up. Some hen hold the opinion that warming-up before performing an activity is not essential, Fy advocate that Warming-up before an activity is useless and further aver that it is ely a wastage of energy as well as time. They also say that warming-up lays obstacles Fhe way of peak performance, The number of persons who think along these lines i8 Jimited. But on the ather hand, there are a number of scholars and physical educators ‘ere of the pinion that warming-up prior to an activity, game or sport 1s essential. say that warming-up is valuable in many ways but indiscriminate warming-4p i8 ofenergy. Warming-up should be specific to the activity being performed. It can tasily observed that if proper warming-up is not done before competition or training, Be muscles are torn and damaged. It further leads to temporary or permanent inefficiency disability, Such incidents usually occur at play fields, For example, if we takepartin jump without warm-up. we may Face serious injury, stich as ankle injury, kmee mjury injury, etc. Most often, it is also observed that all the players of football, hookey, handball, tennis, badminton, ete., perform some exercises for getting warmed: Sbefore the start of the game. This shows that warming-up helps in the beginning stages respective games. It is also sen that if a basketball player tries to shoot the ball ing without proper warming-up, he/she may miss the target. Indeed, warming-4p the chances of making mistakesin the game.
