Can the Periodization Planner create a plan for any sport?
Yes, it works for any sport that follows a structured training cycle, including powerlifting, marathon running, and team sports.
Does the Periodization Planner give me specific exercises?
No, it provides the high-level structure like volume, intensity, and load percentages. You then apply your preferred exercises to those targets.
How does the Periodization Planner handle my competition date?
You provide the date and the total weeks available, and it calculates the phases to ensure you peak at the right time.
Can I use the Periodization Planner for different training models?
Yes, it supports Linear, Daily Undulating, Weekly Undulating, and Block Periodization models.
What is a macrocycle in the Periodization Planner?
A macrocycle is the total training plan, like a season or a year, that the Connector breaks down into smaller phases and mesocycles.
Will the Periodization Planner help me avoid overtraining?
It helps by calculating a systematic load progression, ensuring your intensity drops during the tapering phase before your big event.
What periodization models are supported?
The engine supports Linear, Daily Undulating, Weekly Undulating, and Block Periodization models.
How do I know the training intensity for a specific phase?
You can use the get_phase_attributes capability to retrieve qualitative descriptions of volume, intensity, and primary physiological focus for any given phase.
Can I see a week-by-week breakdown of my training load?
Yes, the generate_weekly_load_progression capability provides an array containing the week number and the relative load percentage for your entire macrocycle.
