ANAEROBIC SPEED RESERVE WEBINAR

The online Anaerobic Speed Reserve Webinar is aimed at educating established and aspiring Strength and Conditioning coaches, Sport Scientists, Practitioners and individuals that are interested in improving their knowledge and application of the ASR concept.

The Anaerobic Speed Reserve Webinar covers the following content:

– What is Anaerobic Speed Reserve (ASR)
– How do you measure ASR?
– What is ASR used for?
– HIIT types & HIIT considerations
– Supramaximal HIIT & Anaerobic HIIT (MAS vs. MAS + %ASR)
– MAS + ASR application with elite sport
– MAS + ASR application with sub-elite sport
– Where does Supramaximal HIIT & Anaerobic HIIT fit into your conditioning periodisation?

 

Introducing the Anaerobic Speed Reserve concept

The Anaerobic Speed Reserve concept is one which Nathan has pioneered with his original research, highlighted by the following article – The efficacy of utilising the anaerobic speed reserve to prescribe supramaximal high intensity interval training.

This was one of the first studies to investigate the utilisation of Anaerobic Speed Reserve to improve the accuracy, sensitivity and effectiveness of high intensity interval training prescription. Following the abovementioned article, Nathan then published another Anaerobic Speed Reserve article, this time with a particular focus on the impact of the Anaerobic Speed Reserve on high intensity running and disposals in elite junior Australian rules footballers. Importantly, the second article links Anaerobic Speed Reserve with performance outcomes, which adds credence to the concept by not only positively influencing conditioning prescription, but also aiding team sport performance.

Practical application of anaerobic speed reserve

In addition to extensively researching the Anaerobic Speed Reserve concept, Nathan has also practically applied the Anaerobic Speed Reserve concept with a wide variety of sports, teams, and athletes. This is a unique aspect of Nathan’s conditioning expertise and Anaerobic Speed Reserve training and application, as most researchers tend to have limited experience practically applying their research with high performance teams and athletes. This matters because research that looks good on paper or in a scientific journal can fail spectacularly when trying to practically apply it with high performance teams and athletes.

Conditioning periodisation case studies & AFL team examples

The Anaerobic Speed Reserve concept is a relatively new concept within strength and conditioning and sport science, which means that it is often misapplied by coaches and practitioners. The Anaerobic Speed Reserve webinar will assist coaches and practitioners with understanding the nuances of the Anaerobic Speed Reserve concept, whilst also outlining how it can be accurately and effectively applied with teams, sports and athletes of all levels and abilities.

Given the complexities associated with short high intensity interval training and prescription, the Anaerobic Speed Reserve webinar places a particular emphasis on presenting specific short HIIT examples (i.e. short supramaximal HIIT, short anaerobic supramaximal HIIT, tempo and speed endurance for team sports. The diversity of these examples highlights the breadth of the Anaerobic Speed concept and its ability to improve the accuracy, sensitivity, and effectiveness of short high intensity interval training prescription.
