In 2014 I wrote Training Load Monitoring – Seeing the Big Picture where I have outlined a simple model for training load monitoring. In this video, I am expanding that model as well as modifying it to depict my current thought process regarding the topic.

In the video below I am also discussing the following:

The relationship between performance, training load, adaptation and readiness
Training load and readiness quadrants
Decision-making quadrant from my article for Aspetar Journal
Three different aspects of training load monitoring with the special emphasis on “game normalization”

As with most models, this one is a simplification that is good enough to get yourself oriented in complexities of training load monitoring. I am looking forward hearing your thoughts and feedback about the material provided.

Few Simple Improvements to Monitoring Data Analysis

Most of us are collecting and analyzing training load data and readiness metrics (i.e. GPS training load, sRPE and wellness). The most common analysis method is to use two rolling averages windows – acute (around 7 days) and chronic (around 28 days) and to calculate their ratio, referred to as ACWR (Acute to Chronic Workload Ratio), or TSB (Training…
