Complete Periodization for Strength Training | Optimizing Athletic Performance

Strength training can be progressed in three general ways: accumulation periods, intensification periods, and realisation periods.

These training periods can be sequenced throughout the training year to achieve peak performance at a specific time period.

Individual sports generally have distinct competitions to peak for, while team sport athletes have many matches throughout the season and need to perform well for an extended period of time.

Great video!
I have some questions:
1) In your example for an individual sport you have 3 accumulation blocks in a row, does every block still have a deload week?
2) Same for intensification week?
3) For the second intensification block, do you lower the volume and increase intensity or do you keep the volume as in the first block and increase the intensity aswell?

Thanks again

Great content, thanks you. Just a question about the training blocks. What do they refer to ? A selection exercises ?

a question, how can I do 12 weeks of an acumulation phase, i mean if I only add sets and sets during 12 weeks it would be a huge amount of training volume or that does not care? what im trying to say is, if I do an acumulation phase of 4 weeks Do i have to start with a medium training volume Lets say 12 sets and at the end of the mesocycle I will be doing 16sets, but if i do 3 mesocycles of acumulation i will be doing 24 sets! how can i control that variable? if im novice start with less sets for example 8 sets at the start of the mesocycle or 6, and if im intermediate 10-12 and advanced 14-16?
