For the coach, the […]
Οι αυξημένες ενεργειακές ανάγκες, αλλά και η διατήρηση της υπάρχουσας μεταβολικής ισορροπίας για έναν αθλητή ή ασκούμενο κατά τη διάρκεια της άσκησης ή ενός αγώνα, είναι ένα θέμα πρωταρχικής σημασίας για την μεγιστοποίηση της αθλητικής απόδοσης.

Resistance tools and combinations of more specific assignments, properly arranged in the training program can enhance the development of specific drills and athletic abilities. Speed development requires the application of drills which bring about memory to the motor neuron centers and muscles, as well as […]
Neuromuscular Mechanical Stimulation (also known as Vibration training) is the latest scientific training approach for enhancing performance and speeding up recovery and rehabilitation. The method, invented by late professor Carmelo Bosco, focuses on the maximization of stimuli to the neuromuscular system and bones, carefully dosed […]
Training periodization is fundamental in the training process for successful outcome of a training plan. In the beginning of the training season the coach must choose the target / main competition of the next competition season for his athlete and design accordingly his training plan. […]
