Benefits of following the principles of
training

The principles of training help to guide the trainer to select the correct training
type and method in creating training sessions that will improve performance.
They help the trainer choose the workload for the athlete to ensure they are not
levelling out or failing to improve.
Things that can happen if you don't follow
the principles of training.

The athletes may not be getting the most out of their workouts. This could lead to them
becoming injured or not seeing improvements in their performance.
About training principles

For example, the principle of overload, the principle of gradualness, the principle of persistence and the
principle of specificity, these four are verified by data. In contrast, it is very difficult to prove the principle of
systematic training and individual treatment through experiments. In addition, the principle of consciousness
is difficult to be scientifically proven, but it can be said to be the consensus of many training instructors.

In the training of competitive sports, practitioners are required to fully understand these principles, then
compare their own training content and make choices before training. In addition, those who guide training
should pay special attention to the principle of individual treatment and provide guidance based on individual
differences.
overload principle

To improve muscle activity, it is necessary to apply

exercise stimulation (overload) to the muscles or

neuro muscles that is greater than the daily intensity of use.


principle of gradualness

2
Gradually increase the load (intensity, volume, efficiency,

etc.) in conjunction with the increase in strength level. At

the same time, the type of training and the way the load is applied

(load form) are adjusted to improve its efficiency.


continuity principle

3
In order to achieve a high degree of muscle and strength development, it is

necessary to carry out regular training for a long time under a strong will.

Targeted training.
specificity principle

Different exercise stimuli given during training will

produce different effects. Choose the exercise form

(load form, intensity, joint angle, etc.) that meets the

goal for training.

Answer to the previous question

If athletes don't follow the principles of training they might not be able to perform as good
as they used to or they might not be able to perform at all.
