“…Because a constant load is used by each player, the test is a measure of absolute muscular endurance (25). Absolute load endurance tests typically result in a greater numbers of repetitions being produced by larger or stronger individuals (12,25; Table 1), which could suggest the test is more an evaluation of muscle endurance than an assessment of strength.…”

The NFL-225 test is widely used to assess the strength level and evaluate the progress of college football players during resistance training. Despite the studies evaluating the validity of this test, there are no reports assessing its reliability. The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and smallest worthwhile difference (SWD) of the NFL-225 test in Division I college football players. Seventy-two players were assessed for more than 3 weeks for the number of repetitions completed with a constant load of 102.3 kg (225 lbs) during winter conditioning. Test sessions occurred on the same day and at the same time 1 week apart. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between weeks 1 and 2 (ICC = 0.987), weeks 2 and 3 (ICC = 0.981), and across weeks 1, 2, and 3 (ICC = 0.988) indicated high relative reliability. A small technical error (TE) (TE = 0.5 repetitions) provided strong absolute reliability. The SWD suggests that a change in performance of 3 repetitions or more after training would indicate a meaningful improvement in performance for this test.

“…24 Increasing strength may also allow a runner to maintain mechanics for longer during intense running. 25 A variety of strength training programs using heavy loads and lighter loads in explosive strength training have been shown to improve running performance in middle distances and laboratory runs within our target timeframes with subjects from a variety of populations.…”

Very little peer-reviewed information is available to aid military personnel in selecting training programs to enhance performance on fitness tests and direct fitness-related military policy. Objective: This review provides recommendations on training programs for enhancing performance on 1.5-mile and 2-mile runs based on the available relevant literature. Design: Short review article. Methods: Collected relevant research articles by using search terms such as aerobic power, military physical fitness test, strength training, resistance training, endurance training, high intensity interval training, running economy, 3 km run, 5 km run, and 1.5/2-mile run. Results: Evidence has shown running performance can improve with a combination of traditional strength training, high intensity interval training, and distance training. Conclusion: A combination of traditional strength training, high intensity interval training, and distance training should be used to enhance running performance on the 1.5 and 2-mile run tests used by the military.(Journal of Trainology 2014;3:11-30)

“…For optimal results, training programs generally follow a periodized method (Bartonietz, 1987;Bielik, 1984;Bompa, 1994;Fry, 1992;Stone, 2006;Stone, 2002). Periodization can be further explained as the division of the training year to meet specific objectives to produce high levels of performance at designated times and consist of periodic changes of training objectives as well as task workload and content (Gambetta, 1991;Haff, 2004;Schmidt, 2000).…”

Core Training for Superior Sports Preparation

The core is at the center of most sports movements. What the core musculature is, how it is evaluated, how it is trained, and how it is applied to functional performance can sometimes be confusing to coaches. The benefits of a sound, research-based core training program is essential to all sport; therefore it must be included in coach's education. The core musculature is separated into two systems: local (stabilization) and global (movement). Exercises can be separated into three categories: core-stability, core-strength, and functional exercises. A multifaceted approach that addresses the three planes of movement combining medicine-ball work, body-weight circuits, controlled movements, abdominal exercises, dumbbell complexes, and Olympic lifts can provide physiological and biomechanical advantages that enhance preparation for most every sport.
