Thanks for watching! I'm hoping to keep this live series going with at least one lecture per week. For context, these are filmed during my graduate level course Advanced Practice in Sport Science. The lab portion is harder to film, but if you'd like to see some of the hands-on application of this information, let me know in the comments! Don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell for notifications. In case you missed it, the first lecture, What is Sport Science?, can be found here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NJH5os-Spmc.html
I am from Nepal, where there are few experts in sports science. Your lecture has greatly aided me in expanding my knowledge of sports science. I hope you bring some more lectures.Thank you Dr.
I really like your point on how to ensure a performance variable useful. We're not just collecting data to collect data. We need to make informed decisions off of our data collections and create actionable plans such as changing an exercise intensity or movement based off of changes that were seen from the ongoing monitoring assessments.
Hi Dr Goodin! I really like the charts and flows you used for the fitness fatigue paradigm and the stimulus adaptation system. I know for me it helps make more sense of how my athletes should be recovering and if they are not recovering in a similar fashion it tells me to find out why.
Hey Dr. Goodin, I really enjoyed watching this lecture! I like how you are able to quantify volume load in different ways. It gives a different perspective on how much an athlete is lifting in a quantitative way regarding loads/reps and even displacement. The charts and graphs really helped me understand the material so I appreciate that!
Dr. Goodin, I enjoyed seeing the visual of soreness, CHO, inflammation, muscle damage, and VA when you were discussing the physiological response to training. This demonstrates DOMS clearly and overall great to help understand the concepts.
Thank you for the informative lecture Dr. Goodin. I like how you covered the history of the General Adaptation Syndrome in the beginning. Additionally, during the lecture I was thinking about how an athlete's performance may be effected when they know they are being tested, but you conveniently covered invisible monitoring at the end! I think invisible monitoring is a great way to monitor athletes in an effective and efficient manner.
Dr. Goodin, I really hope you were not banking on getting sponsored by Catapult. However, thank you for the stellar presentation. Some of the takeaways I found: A form of measuring and quantifying athlete training load is important for the optimization of their program. Adaptation is dependent on the training load, optimization of the adaptation process requires a clear understanding of the load placed upon the athlete. Additionally, to collect relevant information on the athlete's performance, testing and monitoring will be necessary and effective if done correctly. #taketheCPSS
Dr. Goodin, I appreciate the example charts/calculations when talking about volume load in the weight room. It helped me fully understand how there will be differences in calculations of load once displacement is taken into account 24:08
Hi Dr. Goodin! Thanks for the educational lecture about quantifying the training load. I particularly enjoyed the section on the physiological response to training. The graph that displayed CHO stores, inflammation, muscle damage, soreness, and voluntary activation really helped me visualize the work and recovery process in a tangible, time defined context. It is interesting to compare the difference between technique training and heavy resistance training and how the SRA curve differs due to the differences in psychological and physiological demands but these are so important for coaches to know and implement. Great stuff!
Hi Dr. Goodin, Great lecture! I was very interested in the section about training load and how it looks in different applications. It was also helpful to see the RPE chart and to learn that the scale is non-linear.
This lecture helped clarify the chapters from the text book. You mentioned how RPE can be used and how helpful it can be in a training program which I agree with! How would you adjust programming based off of RPE if every athlete may perceive the same training load differently?
Hello Dr. Goodin, I appreciate the in depth video quantifying training load. I think this was a great supplement to the reading in chapter two, it cleared up some of the questions I had. I did have a question regarding the assessment of player's load. Would it be outside of the scope of a sport scientists to assess the biomechanical movement of an athlete? Biomechanical load is something that has been examined more recently in our own lab and in the research. In a team that may have more limited resources, would a simple analysis of slow motion video of a countermovement jump, a sagittal view of the isometric mid thigh pull through the effort, or a frontal/sagittal video review of the players movement in the first couple of steps of a sprint, be appropriate for a sport scientist to do?
Dr. Goodin, I like how you mentioned incorporating testing days into the macrocycle. Simply watching athletes play or perform in competition is not the best way to assess the physical characteristics necessary for their sport. Testing days are good for monitoring and helps us see if we need to made adjustments to the program so our athletes have adequate recovery and are making the adaptations we planned for them to make. Thanks for your video!
Hi Dr. Goodin, after reading the textbook and watching your lecture makes it more clear. I enjoyed how you explain the key factors for a successful training programs, following with fatigue and optimize preparedness.
God day Dr. Goodin, I found particularly useful the invisible monitoring, as I have read that “testing is training and training is testing” if some testing sessions can be taken away, as the testing can be done inside training, in theory it provides more opportunities to improve, as more training sessions can be completed. Something I like to do in myself and athletes/persons I’ve trained is using RPE or RIR, along with their repetitions and weight used during lifting to estimate their session 1RM, and although not as accurate as an actual testing, and higher reps are less accurate in the predictions, I found it helpful to monitor the adaptations are happening in the desired direction at desired time frames, as well as adjusting load as needed during training sessions.
Great! Percentages would be context-specific, but I would recommend calculating them based on the coefficient of variation within athletes or within the group, or calculating the standard deviation and comparing the jumps against 1x or 2x the standard deviation. I'll have a video coming out soon on the Hawkin Dynamics channel that will likely address this.
I like when I talked about articulating, the system, being able understand the program of what you’re trying to produce when it comes to certain assessments. I enjoy the lecture !
Dr. Goodin, I appreciate your inclusion of invisible monitoring and the educational perspective you bring to this approach for determining athlete readiness.
