50% Periodisation - The requirements of the module are for the learner to acquire the skills to develop a detailed Strength & Conditioning Periodisation plan for an elite athlete. The lectures in this module provide the learner with the fundamental knowledge and skills to support them in the development of the detailed periodisation plan. Following completion of the periodisation plan learners are required to complete a detailed presentation on the developed plan.
50% Practical classes in Olympic Lifts - The requirements of Practical elements of the module are for the Learner to develop the skills to be able to complete, coach and assess athletes completing Olympic lifts (specifically the Snatch movements).
