OVERTRAINING VERY LONG ARTICLE TITLE GOES HERE
SYNDROME IN THE TACTICAL ATHLETE
AND TAKES UP LOTS AND LOTS OF ROOM
risk the tactical athlete will succumb to overtraining syndrome
increases. Considering the age of the tactical athlete, the
symptoms may not be obvious as intensity and duration of the
training will increase to satisfy the demands of coaches and the
ability to compete (1). The symptoms that commonly appear
are mood change, decreased performance in the sport, mental
exhaustion, feelings of burning out, and higher frequency of
injuries (1).
One efficient way to decrease overtraining is to use periodization
in training. Periodization allows the tactical athlete to schedule
different intensities over a period of a year. It will also allow for an
off-season or a recovery cycle to be factored in so that the tactical
athlete will have adequate rest time (1).
