Choose the conditioning modules to gain a greater understanding of team training, individual training or monitoring.

Team Training

Considers the impact of every training session within a typical training week using various approaches. It identifies how players are likely to be responding and what type of training should be implemented to fulfil the aims and objectives of the training philosophy.

Individual Training

Special consideration may need to be given to certain players based on aspects such as injury history, age, etc. Where necessary, players who fall into these categories should have an individual plan within the team training plan.

Monitoring

Discusses the various aspects of player monitoring, what to look for, how to accurately interpret data and how to make informed decisions about player load over the course of a training week.
