Abstract

Many strength and conditioning practitioners have embraced periodization theory over the last two decades. Different interpretations are now commonly applied in practice and discussed in professional publications or meetings. Yet despite its popularity, some people still seem to struggle with the concept. Periodization originated in Eastern Europe, and therefore is perceived by many in the West as a foreign idea. Although this has enhanced its mystique, the concept often seems disconnected from our knowledge and experience. Likewise, a working understanding of periodization involves a fair bit of scientific theory and jargon, some of which may not translate well. This has made some straightforward issues appear complicated and has alienated its share of coaches or athletes. The intent of this article is threefold: (a) to relate periodization to a familiar idea (game theory); (b) to discuss the decision-making challenges involved in designing periodized training programs; and (c) to present some examples of applied strategies.
