![Page 3: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Objectives
• After this presentation, the participant will be able to:– Define and describe the acute training variables within the
OPT model.– Describe the stages and phases within the OPT model.– Design programs for each phase of training.
![Page 4: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Program Design
• Traditional Programs– Based on the experiences of the fitness professional– Have led to many scientifically unsupported training
programs that have created confusion for the fitness professional
• Today’s Program– Safe, effective, and productive– Fitness professionals must be competent at designing
resistance training programs for a variety of clients.– When using a structured, scientifically based program design
model, it becomes very simple.

Program Design
• Creating a purposeful system or plan to achieve a goal
• The purpose of a training program is to provide a path for the client to achieve his or her goal. – Requires the fitness professional to have a comprehensive
understanding of key concepts
![Page 6: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Program Design
• What exercises are most appropriate for my client?
• What exercises are contraindicated for my client?
• What exercise intensities are appropriate for my client?
• How many exercises are appropriate for my client?
• How many sets and repetitions should I have my client perform?
• How many days per week should my client train?
![Page 7: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Periodization and the OPT Model
• Physiologic adaptations of stabilization, strength, and power must take place in a planned, progressive manner to establish the proper foundation of strength for each subsequent adaptation.
![Page 8: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
OPT Model Phases
• Five Training Phases– How do these phases promote specific adaptations?– What are the acute variables for each of the phases?
![Page 9: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Application
• Selecting the right exercises
• Selecting the right acute variables
• Applying both in a periodized manner to different populations with different goals

Training Intensity
• Unstable, multiplanar environment increases intensity – Requires increased levels of muscle activity for joint
stabilization
![Page 21: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Repetition Tempo
• Repetition tempo spectrum of muscle action– Significant impact on the functional outcome of the
stressed tissues– By emphasizing eccentric and isometric muscle actions
at slower velocities during the initial phases of training (phase 1), more demand is placed on the connective tissue as well as preparing the nervous system for functional movements
– Important to build the appropriate physiologic foundation for more specific forms of hypertrophy, strength, and power training
![Page 23: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Rest Interval
• The time taken to recuperate between sets or exercises
• Has a dramatic effect on the outcome of the training program
• Primary energy used during training depends on the training phase, intensity, and goal.
![Page 24: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Rest Interval
• Muscular Endurance and Stabilization Adaptation– Best developed with relatively short rest periods; generally
0–90 seconds
• Hypertrophy– Best achieved with relatively short rests periods often
ranging from 0–60 seconds
• Maximal Strength Adaptations – Best achieved with relatively long rest periods; generally 3–5
minutes
• Power Adaptations – Require relatively long rest periods, generally 3–5 minutes
depending on the client’s level of fitness
![Page 25: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Rest Interval
• The ability to replenish ATP and phosphocreatine (PC) supplies – Crucial for optimal performance and the desired adaptation
• By adjusting the rest interval, energy supplies can be regained according to the goal of the training program– 20–30 seconds: approximately 50% recovery of ATP-PC– 40 seconds: approximately 75% recovery of ATP-PC– 60 seconds: approximately 85–90% recovery of ATP-PC– 3 minutes: approximately 100% recovery of ATP-PC
![Page 26: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Training Volume
• The total amount of work performed within a specified time period
• Varies among individuals– Training phase– Goals– Age– Work capacity– Recoverability– Nutritional status – Injury history– Life Stress
![Page 27: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Training Volume
• Inversely related to intensity – Cannot safely perform high volumes of high-intensity
exercises
• Training phase and goal dictate the volume.
![Page 28: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Training Frequency
• The number of training sessions conducted during a given period (usually 1 week)
• Factors of training sessions per week, per body part– Training goals– Age– General health– Work capacity– Nutritional status– Recoverability– Lifestyle and other stressors
![Page 29: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Training Frequency
• Optimum training frequency for improvements in strength is 3 to 5 times per week.
• At least 1 to 2 times per week is sufficient to maintain the physical, physiologic, and performance improvements achieved during other phases of training.
![Page 30: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Training Duration
• Timeframe from the start of the workout to the finish of the workout
• Length of time (number of weeks) spent in one phase (or period) of training
![Page 31: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Training Duration
• Training programs that exceed 60–90 minutes (excluding warm-up and cool-down) – Rapidly declining energy levels– Alterations in hormonal and immune system responses
![Page 32: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Exercise Selection
• The process of choosing exercises for program design
• Should be specific to the training goals and based on the principles of the exercise selection continuum
![Page 33: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Exercise Selection Examples
![Page 34: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Exercise Selection
• Progress in a systematic fashion by following the progression continuum
![Page 35: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Periodization and the OPT Model
• Varies the focus of a training program at regularly planned periods to produce optimal adaptation
• Two primary objectives – Dividing the training program into distinct periods (or phases)
of training– Training different forms of strength in each period (or phase)
• Controls fatigue and volume of training
• Prevents injury
![Page 36: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Periodization and the OPT Model
• Training Plans– Annual
• Organizes the training program for a 1-year period
– Monthly • Details the specific days of each workout, showing the
client exactly what phase of the OPT model (type of training) will be required each day of the week as well as when the reassessment will occur
– Weekly Plan • Gives the client a picture of exactly what exercises will
be used in his or her workout for that period
![Page 37: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Periodization and the OPT Model
• Periodization Cycles– Annual plan = Macrocycle– Monthly plan = Mesocycle– Weekly plan = Microcycle
![Page 38: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The OPT Model
![Page 39: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Stabilization
• Focuses on the main adaptation of stabilization (or anatomic adaptation)
• Prepares the body for the demands of higher levels of training that may follow
• Goals– Correct muscle imbalances – Improve stabilization of the core musculature – Prevent tissue overload by preparing muscles, tendons,
ligaments, and joints for the upcoming imposed demands of training
– Improve overall cardiorespiratory and neuromuscular condition
– Establish proper movement patterns and exercise technique
![Page 40: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Stabilization
• Phase 1: Stabilization Endurance– Most first-time typical clients will start in this phase of training– Creates optimum levels of stabilization strength and postural
control – Multiplanar, proprioceptively enriched environment allows
optimum recruitment of joint stabilizers • Establishes high levels of neuromuscular control and functional
strength
![Page 41: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Stabilization
![Page 42: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Strength
• Hypertrophy and maximal strength
• Goals – Increase the ability of the core musculature to stabilize the pelvis
and spine under heavier loads, through more complete ranges of motion
– Increase the load-bearing capabilities of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints
– Increase the volume of training with more reps, sets, and intensity– Increase metabolic demand by taxing the ATP-PC and glycolysis
energy systems to induce cellular changes in muscle (weight loss or hypertrophy)
– Increase motor unit recruitment, frequency of motor unit recruitment, and motor unit synchronization (maximal strength)
![Page 43: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Strength
• Phase 2: Strength Endurance– Improves stabilization endurance and increases strength– Superset
• More stable exercise (such as a bench press) is immediately followed (superset) with a stabilization exercise with similar biomechanical motions (such as a stability ball push-up)
• Allows for increased motor unit recruitment after the prime movers have fatigued and enhanced dynamic joint stabilization
![Page 44: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Strength
![Page 45: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Strength
• Phase 3: Hypertrophy– Specific to maximal hypertrophy– Focuses on high levels of volume with minimal rest periods
• Forces cellular changes that result in an overall increase in muscle size
![Page 46: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Strength Stage
![Page 47: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Strength
• Phase 4: Maximal Strength– Focuses on increasing the load placed on the tissues
of the body– Maximal intensities force the recruitment of more
motor units • Increases firing rate and synchronization
– Not appropriate for all clients
![Page 48: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Strength Stage
![Page 49: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Power
• Increases the speed of muscle contraction (rate of force production)
• Goals– Increase the velocity of movements– Increase the rate of force production by increasing
the number of motor units activated, synchronization, and the speed at which they are excited
![Page 50: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Power
• Phase 5: Power– Superset a strength exercise with a power exercise
• The high-intensity (85–100%) strength exercise is performed to increase motor neuron excitability and reflex potentiation.
– The 85–100% refers to the intensity for traditional strength-training exercises.
– The 30–45% intensity is used for “speed” exercise such as speed squats in which the squats are performed as fast as possible with a low load.
![Page 51: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Power
![Page 52: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Applying the OPT Model
• A proven, easy-to-use system of periodization
• Can be used to create programs for clients with various goals
• Most common goals– Reduce body fat – Increase lean body mass – Enhance general sports performance
![Page 53: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Reduce Body Fat
• Burning more calories than consumed
• Weight training provides an extremely potent means to burn calories when it is combined with cardiorespiratory training
• Added benefit of increased muscle strength
• The client only needs to be cycled through the first two phases of the OPT model (phase 3 optional).– Begin in phase 1 to ensure proper muscle balance and
endurance of the stabilization muscles. – He or she will remain there for approximately 4 weeks before
moving into phase 2. – Sample annual, monthly, and weekly plans can be found in
the textbook.
![Page 54: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Increase Lean Body Mass
• With the goal of hypertrophy, the client can be cycled through phases 1 through 4 of the OPT model
• Sample annual, monthly, and weekly plans can be found in the textbook
![Page 55: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Enhance Sports Performance
• The client can be cycled through the entire OPT model, depending on the needs and wants of the client. – For the typical fitness client, phases 1, 2, and 5 are most
important.
• Sample annual, monthly, and weekly plans can be found in the textbook.
![Page 56: Chapter 14 Integrated Program Design and the Optimum Performance Training™ (OPT™) Model](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062801/56649e635503460f94b5fccb/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Summary
• Choose which phase of training the client will work.
• Major acute variables predetermined– Sets– Reps– Intensity– Tempo– Rest

Summary
• Choose exercises that fit the desired body part and guidelines of the specific phase of training. – Example: Chest for the strength endurance phase consists
of a chest-strength exercise followed by a chest-stabilization exercise.
• Bench press followed by a stability ball push-up

Summary
• Using information from the resistance training section, choose a particular system of training (circuit, vertical loading) to increase intensity.
• You may wish to use a split routine in which the client works out 2–6 days a week with varying body parts.
• Follow the physiologic guidelines of the OPT model. – As you become more familiar with the system and the
information, experiment with new approaches.
