#LTADChat Training Load in Youth Athletes

Andy recently joined a panel of experts to discuss training load in youth athletes.

The discussion covered what training load is and some of the ways in which you can assess it. It included tips for monitoring training load in various contexts and considerations for doing so during the adolescent growth spurt. Questions were fielded on the value of individualising thresholds, Acute to Chronic Workload Ratios (ACWR) and the future of both research and practice.

As usual, Andy has thought of loads of good things to say that escaped him during the call and will put together some more posts soon in this vein.

Please do take a look below and share if you find it of interest.
