Abbreviations and definitions
| Name | Description | Used on site |
|---|---|---|
| τFrag | The τFrag constant is used in the TREFF-model and represents the delay time in the clearance of damaged fragments. | |
| τMet | The τMet constant is used in the TREFF-model and represents the delay time in the creation of tRNA. | |
| Additional Training | Additional training refers to a situation where one type of training enhances the progress or effectiveness of another type of training. This can have both positive and negative effects on the desired performance | |
| Competitive Training | Competitive training refers to a situation where one type of training interferes with another type of training. This can cause an inhibition of progress, but it can also improve the progress. In other words, competitive training can both hinder and improve progress and effectiveness of training, depending on the type of recovery mechanisms behind the training impulse. | |
| Super Compensation | Supercompensation is a term used in sports science to describe the post-training period during which the trained function or parameter has a higher performance capacity than it did prior to the training period. It is a four-step process that begins with the application of a training or loading stress and the body's subsequent reaction to this training stress, which is fatigue or tiring. The second step is the recovery phase. The third step is the supercompensation phase, where there is an adaptive rebound above the baseline. The last step in the process is the loss of the supercompensation effect. | |
| TRIMP | Trainings Imput | |
| TRIMP-model | TRIMP is an abbreviation for TRaining IMPulse. It is a method for quantifying aerobic training load. It was originally defined as the product of training volume, measured in minutes, and training intensity, measured as average heart rate (beats per minute or bpm). For example, 50 min at 140 bpm TRIMP = 50 × 140 = 7000. There are also modified versions of TRIMP that split training into zones related to the maximum heart rate (max HR) of the performer or use a Rating of Perceived Exertion. |
