AbstractIntroduction to principles of workout theory / practical exercise experience in the fields of strength, endurance, speed, and motility / undergoing a complete workout cycle / specific methods such as intermitted workouts etc. / training in different environments / workout monitoring and performance tests
ObjectiveThe participants' practical experience of basic workout principles will enhance their competence in scheduling and structuring workout sessions and programs.

AbstractEvidence-based findings on the training of endurance, strength, and speed, planning and periodization of training, as well as motor learning will be presented and discussed in relation to specific age groups (childhood to older age), and performance levels. The theoretical knowledge will be applied in an annual training plan for an individually chosen sport/performance level.
ObjectiveUnderstand and critically evaluate evidence-based training recommendations for specific groups (children/youth, adults, older adults, recreational/high performance sport) and apply and evaluate this knowledge within a goal-oriented training plan.
ContentLecture:
- Evidence-based research in exercise sciences
- Endurance, strength, and speed training
- Training in childhood and youth
- Training in older age
- Analysis of a specific sport, planning and periodization models
- Motor learning in sports practice

Training sessions:
- Development of a goal-oriented annual training plan for an individually chosen sport/performance level, based on evidence from the exercise sciences.

Practice in the gym:
- Practical examples for the training of strength and speed
- Motor learning experiments

AbstractBasic education in light athletics covers the following skills: running (track), throwing and jumping . Training progresses from the very basics to the uppermost level. The disciplines hurdles, high jump, long jump as well as shot put, slingball and javelin are covered intensively.
ObjectiveBasics of track and field
Improving the personal performance
Understanding the relation between technique and condition

Prerequisites: successful completion of Basic Education.
2 credits2GA. Krebs
AbstractNew, technically- demanding disciplines are presented methodically. Skills which are already familiar, will be promoted according to performance. In the practical instruction, the relationship between condition and technique is noted and demonstrated.
ObjectiveExperiencing with new track and field events
Improving the personal performance
Understanding the relation between technique and condition
ContentAcquiring the essential elements in hurdling and polevaulting
Performance training in hurdling and 400 m running
Strength- power- an speedtraining
Theoretical information to the test events and the training of condition
