A USECA and Masters of Sport joint project—a COMPLETE full color 52-week conditioning Program geared towards the age group and Xcel gymnast. By greatly reducing the coaches time to develop a strength program, this manual is complete and ready to go. The development of the Condition Program includes the ability to tailor the program and tasks to the level of athlete using the program. From the youngest to the oldest, this easy to use program is a must for every coaches library. The chapters on Plyometrics and Handstand Development are an extra bonus and are a great addition to the overall program.

Offering a TOP’s program does not mean you must commit to the full program. Providing athletes with pin-pointed core base skills, strength and flexibility will enhance even the most beginner of athletes. The first half of the manual is dedicated to setting up the program with needs, suggestions, and examples of how to set up a successful program

A big mistake is not applying a long-term development model for teaching young athletes, and we consistently apply inappropriate work loads followed by inadequate recovery time. Periodization Building Blocks teaches us to organize volume, intensities, and cycles of training through out the season. Most importantly, it’s the process of training an athlete in an incremental manner from the post season to peak performance.

With periodization being a sports science, it is adjustable to meet the needs of a particular athlete or set program. Prior to starting the competitive season, coaches who implement Periodization Building Blocks will certainly save time and effort.

Most gyms have training groups with multiple levels of athletes. Based on a 52-week year, Periodization Building Blocks annual plan is designed to work with a mixed training group. While Level 9/10 athletes usually have the longest season, the Level 6/7/8’s remain on the same schedule. After lower levels are finished with their competition season, they enjoy their well deserved Transition Phase returning to the gym invigorated and ready to attack their General Preparation Phase.

Masters of Sport uses Periodization Building Blocks to create the Annual 52-week Plans
