Developing A Training Progression For Juniors

Developing A Training Progression For Juniors
By Al Vermeil

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My Family All the coaches, sports medicine, and sports
scientists who were kind enough to share their knowledge with me All of the athletes I’ve coached, professional & Especially My High School Football Players Chuck Cook Golf Teaching Professional #5 Dr. Greg Rose And David Phillips Directors Of The Titleist Performance Institute Bill Walsh, Jerry Krause & Jerry Reinsdorf Lima Hennessy PhD.

Coach Bill Wood: The Man Who Gave Me My First Training Program And Taught Me How To Lift Weights

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My Son Lance Vermeil

Coaching my son Lance was the single greatest learning and coaching experience of my coaching career. He was a talented dedicated athlete who excelled at sprinting and Olympic Weight Lifting. This experience gave me a better understanding of how speed and strength training work together. Because I saw him everyday, it gave me feed back on the positive and negative aspects of my training plan. I was coaching someone who was training year round and was competing in both sports. This is vastly different because your daily training is an exact measure of your competitive readiness. This is physically and emotionally different then training a team sport athlete. I had to seek a greater knowledge, which made me more proficient. Many of the things that are stated in this presentation are a direct result of that experience. I will always be deeply appreciative of my son's efforts, and patience, and thankful for the time we spent together

TESTING AND EVALUATION
Testing Gives Your Program Direction And Insight Into The Athlete, Without it, it's Like Driving Blind

Managing The Window Of Opportunity
Specializing in a specific sport too soon Can Limit Development for The Following Reasons: May cause Over Use Injuries Create Imbalances' Limit of Motor Skills, And Physical Development Creates Undo Pressure And Expectations The Sport They Excel At Between the ages of 7-15 May Change Due To The Maturation Process Can Deny A Normal Childhood Experience Can Cause Burn Out Play Two Sports Until College Or 18

Various Sports’ That Contribute To Athlete Development
Aiming Sports Depth Perception Hitting A Ball With An Object Learning To Tolerate Impact Speed Power Strength Concentration Hockey & Hurling Baseball Tumbling/ Gymnastic Martial Arts Basketball Hockey Track & Field Tennis Soccer Hurling Football & Rugby Wrestling Olympic Lifting

Track And Field All These Events Share A Common Bond Because Their Training Includes Sprinting, Jumps/Plyometrics And Weight Training. They Learn How To Deal With Competitive Stress Of Individual Sports Sprints Develop Jumps Events Throwing Events Speed, Mobility And Rhythm Because Muscles Must Contract Fast And Relax Fast Power And Elastic Reactive Strength Strength Explosive Strength Rotational Power

The Window Of Opportunity
Increases in the size of bone seem to require a foundation period of training where the loadings are Not Too High so potential injuries may be avoided The program must allow an appropriate period for Structural Adjustments within the body for tendons, ligaments and bone so the potential for injuries to these areas, in younger athletes in particular, may be minimized Bourne, G Establishing a great training base as the body matures is like a savings account, the sooner you start, the greater the return over a life time

Their bodies are very malleable and their nervous system, is like putty, There Is A Lower Influence Of Genetics On The Training Outcome Aging decreases type II muscle fibers When they are prepared to use heaver loads, it’s imperative to hypertrophy using 80%> of max loads 2-6 reps for lifts and do explosive ballistic exercise, when the body is so receptive to change These muscle fibers with age will be lost over time From the fear is not losing these fibers but rather having them go untrained and not optimized in their form, function and resistance to injury during this optimum period of time From Personal Communication With W. Kraemer PhD

Teens thru 20s have all of the endocrine and other system’s at the height of vitality It’s Imperative To Take Advantage Of This To Train and develop skill, strength, power and speed Breakdown Repair And Remodel Muscle And Connective Tissue Training elevates, the level of function to a higher level for young people the years before 21 Peak bone mass that they will carry the rest of their life This is especially important for women From my experience working with year olds I observed these positive changes & I have also seen the negative results, that are irreversible From Personal Communication With W. Kraemer PhD

Training Program Outline
There Can Be A Big Difference Between Chorological Age And Physiology Age The following are examples of program out lines for the off season They are not absolute, just guidelines The order of training follows a logical progression and I would recommend not to alter it You may have to adjust time according to athletes’ other commitments

TRAINING METHODS HIERARCHY
Speed 1. Accelerations 2. Absolute 3. Specific -Sleds, Hill, Sprints -In-Outs -Change Direction -Short Jumps, & Lifting -Down Hill (Speed Strength) Explosive Strength / Elastic Reactive Strength 1. Starting Explosive Elastic -Sn & CL Mid Thigh Olympic Lift -Jumps, Hops PP & PK W/Pause Medicine Ball Bounds & In-Depth Strength 1. Maximum/relative 2. Eccentric 3. Static -Squats, Pressing % 6 sec down -Hang Cl & SN -& Pulling 80%> -Jumps -Halting Pulls Work Capacity 1. Rehabilitation 2. Body composition Joint mobility -Injury specific -Nutrition; Work ethic Dynamic Exercises 4. Strength endurance 5. Stability Aerobic -Strength circuit -Local, Global Low Load, Core Strength Tempo -Body Weight Circuit -Core Stab. High Load Rotation Control -Med Ball

Training Progression By Age
7-12 12-15 16> Intensity Body Weight Up To 10% Of Body Weight Age %-40% Of Body Wt Doing Strength Ct Age %-30% Above Strength Ct Intensity: Pulling, Squatting & Pressing Can Train At 70%> Intensity Of One Rep Max, If They Have Passed The Norms For 12-15 Methods You Can’t Skip This Progression. 1. Tumbling/Gym. 2. Marshall Arts 3. Body Weight Exercises 4. Medicine Ball 5. Games 1. Strength Circuit 2. Medicine Ball 3. Tempo 4. Low Intensity Jumps 4. Speed Work All Methods If They Have Established A Training Base And Pass The Norms For Each Phase Training Frequency Per Week 2-3 Times A Weeks 3-4 Times A Weeks 4-6 Times A Weeks Session Length 1/2-1.5 hours Max Hours 1.5 – 2.5 Hours Total Hours Per Wk 2-4 Hours 5-8 Hours 8-12 Hours

Training Methods For Ages 8-12
Strength Jump/Plyos Low Impact Speed Work General Conditioning Body Weight & Medicine Ball Exercise For The Total Body: 1. Jump Rope 2. Ankling 3. Ankle Jumps 4. Jumps Up On To A Box 5. Jump Up Stairs Can Make Jumps Part Of Games Or Strength Work Games And Relays Running Drills When They Are Strong Enough To Get In The Proper Position 1. Games 2. Marshal Arts 3. Tumbling 4. Gymnastic Core 4. Light Medicine Ball 5. Medicine Ball Tempo

Body Weight Strength Exercises Legs Core Upper Body 1. Squats 2. Step Ups 3. Lunges 4. Single Leg Squats 6 Over Head Squats With A Stick 1. Back Extension 2. Reverse Hypers 3. Light Medicine Ball Throw (Rotation) 4. All Forms Of Abdominal Exercise 5 Single Leg Rdls 1. Push Ups 2. Dips 3. Pulls Ups 3. Inverted Rows For Those 10 Year Old Who Are Proficient At The Body Circuit Weight You May Use A Stick Or Very Light Bars (5-10#) For Teaching Strength Circuit And Olympic Lifting Technique

Body weight exercise Once they can perform the body circuit of 6-10 exercise easily you can increase intensity for olds you may add 5-10 lbs weight belt or vest to increase intensity on some exercise For years olds you can also start to teach the strength circuit with 10-15% of their body weight The development of the tendons and ligaments is slower than muscle development, so don’t be in A rush to add resistance

Medicine ball tempo (make it game/relay) Do medicine ball throws, run yds at A moderate pace then repeat the process 9 more times to complete the set. Rest 3 minutes between sets. Do between 2-3 set First learn to do the throws correctly before combining with the runs Medicine ball will develop the core & the running will train their cardio vascular system This is better then doing A lot of slow long distance running

Weekly Schedule For Ages 8-12
Monday Wed Is Optional Friday Warm Up With Tumbling/Gym Or Games 15 Min Explosive Med Ball Throws & Jumps 20 Min Strength Training 15-25 min Medicine Ball Tempo 15 Min Cool Down

Norms are only A guide line, there are no absolutes.
One athlete may progress faster than another. They should progress at their own rate You can't rush the process. They should be able to pass these norms with proper technique and no pain or undue stress.

Norms For Ages 8-12 Should Pass Before Progressing To The Next Level

Appendix

High Load Test OF Single-Leg Stability And Proprioception: Comerford M.
Rapid A Switch Measure Control/Change Direction

Support leg level with the hip
Are Your Athletes Ready To Train & Absorb Impact? Kinetic Chain Strength & Control Explosive Propulsion Test Category 3 (Comerford) Athletes who are incapable of doing this limit their explosive potential because of a weak link in the chain (i.e. the hip, shoulder, gluts, & cause SI joint problems etc.) and difficulty controlling extension and rotation. This will predispose them to Injuries In Impact Sports and Jump/Plyometric training because their body will buckle from the impact and ground contact Support leg level with the hip

Are Your Athletes Ready To Train? Unilateral Leg Strength
Lunge & Lean Test Are Your Athletes Ready To Train? Unilateral Leg Strength The distance of the step is 4 lengths of the athlete's own foot. Step into a lunge, back straight & back knee just off the surface Hinge from hip & keep the back straight, without changing their body position (purpose of stick) have them shift all their weight onto their front leg, & lift the rear leg off forming a straight line. Hold this position for 3 second and then step out. A good test for sports that the skills are performed this position i.e. Basketball, Baseball, Football, Hockey, & Tennis

Explanation of Training Cycles
The wide range of volume is so you can vary the volume from workout to workout and emphasize different training methods for the specific workout or individual The times can vary for each quality depending the volume The volume-repetitions listed for Olympic lifting & strength training are only those repetitions that have a training affect, not warm up sets & repetitions. A well prepare 16 old who went through previous list program should start counting at 70% If they haven’t master the Olympic lift then utilize high volume of jumping up on to boxes and med ball throws for Explosive Strength until Olympic lift technique is master. Heavier athletes I would do more Med Explosive throws, Med Ball jumps and lighter athletes would do more jumps

Explanation of Training Cycles
Your athletes’ may not be able to train 6 days a week but if the ahtletes’ will do Med Ball & Tempo at least on Tuesday & Thrusday it help them recover To save time you can utilize explosive med ball throws at the later stages of you warm up or integrate them during you Olympic lifting & strength training In the volume table under 0-10 yards you will see elastic jumps 0-30 You will also see the same for Explosive Multiple Jumps Explosive Med Ball Throws . When the range starts with zero mean this quality isn’t a dominate quantity for the particular sprint distance. This give you option to using that time for additional training for another quality or shorting the workout

Contrast Training For Increasing General Power
Contrast Training works well with the less explosive athlete if done after good base of Strength training-because it jump starts their CNS which creates a better neurological response to the training stimulates You can sequence the use of intensity several way Starting with the a set heavy then a set light exercises or alternating between heavy to light with in the same set this gives the athlete the feeling of being explosive Explosive Med throws alternating 2-3 with heavy ball and 2-3 with to lighter ball is good effective way to help increase power or Power cleans 1 50K 1 with 60 & 1 at 70K all with in a set or a set of 2 at 50k, 2at 60k & 70K When trying to improve any kind of power keep the repetition low per set and allow rest so the CSN doesn't not become fatigued

Increasing General Power
Complex training the more elastic athlete benefits more because they have the elastic qualities, so the jumps have more positive influence on the training stimulates. Jumps (Elastic Reactive Strength) Example ¼ squat jump WITH MED BALL OR WEIGHT BELT x5 followed by 5 vertical jumps or 5 hurdle jumps Speed Example Squat x 5, 3 standing long jumps and 2 sprints 20 Yds 3-4 explosive med throws or jumps, and 2 sprints 20 Yds Rest between exercise 3 min & 5 minutes between sets Before using complex training they must have a good training base & be technically proficient in all exercises. It should not be use with novice athletes’

Recovery From High Neurological Training: Strength, Jumps/Plyos And Sprint Training
Tempo Runs 75% Or Less Of Max Speed For 100 Or 200 Meters To Recover From The Neurological Work: Strength, Jumps/Plyos And Sprint Training It Develop The General Fitness Or Work Capacity Never Run At 75% To 95% It Is Too Fast To Recover From And Too Slow For Speed Work C. Francis
