Course context for academic year 2024-25

1- CONTEXTO
Desde hace décadas se han venido utilizando, sin apenas cambios, métodos de entrenamiento de fuerza que pretenden mejorar el rendimiento de los deportistas. La asignatura pretende hacer un análisis crítico de esta forma de entender la fuerza y proponer una forma de trabajo más racional, eficaz y con el máximo rigor científico.
Adicionalmente, la asignatura pretende actualizar la terminología del entrenamiento de fuerza elimineando conceptos erróneos pero muy frecuentes en las salas de entrenamiento e intentar ayudar al alumno a entender mejor qué es la fuerza muscular y cómo se puede mejorar.
Por último, nos gustaría que el temario fuese una guía que, en un futuro, pudiese servir a los alumnos para dirigir sus propias salas de entrenamiento. Ya sea con objetivos que persigan la mejora de la salud, el rendimiento o la composición corporal de sus clientes.

Specific Competences

  • AC1.3 : Communicate and interact appropriately and efficiently, in physical activity and sport, in diverse intervention contexts, demonstrating teaching skills in a conscious, natural and continuous way.
  • AC2.1 : Knowing how to guide, design, apply and technico-scientifically assess physical exercise and physical condition at an advanced level, based on scientific evidence, in different areas, contexts and types of activities for the whole population and with emphasis on special populations such as: the elderly, schoolchildren, people with disabilities and people with pathologies, health problems or similar (diagnosed and/or prescribed by a doctor), taking into account gender and diversity.
  • AC2.2 : Identify, communicate and apply scientific anatomical-physiological and biomechanical criteria at an advanced level of skills in the design, development and technical-scientific evaluation of procedures, strategies, actions, activities and appropriate guidance; to prevent, minimise and/or avoid a health risk in the practice of physical activity and sport in all types of population.
  • AC2.3 : Design and apply with fluency, naturalness, consciously and continuously adequate, efficient, systematic, varied physical exercise and physical condition, based on scientific evidence, for the development of the processes of adaptation and improvement or readaptation of certain capacities of each person in relation to human movement and its optimisation; in order to be able to solve unstructured, increasingly complex and unpredictable problems and with emphasis on special populations.
  • AC2.4 : Articulate and display an advanced level of skill in the analysis, design and evaluation of tests for the assessment and control of physical fitness and physical-sporting performance.
  • AC2.6 : Develop an advanced level in the planning, application, control and evaluation of physical and sports training processes.
  • AC3.2 : Knowing how to promote, advise, design, apply and technically-scientifically evaluate appropriate and varied physical activity, physical exercise and sport programmes, adapted to the needs, demands and individual and group characteristics of the whole population, with emphasis on the elderly, women and diversity, schoolchildren, people with disabilities and people with pathologies, health problems or similar (diagnosed and/or prescribed by a doctor).
  • AC6.1 : Know and understand the bases of the methodology of scientific work.
  • AC6.2 : Analyse, review and select the effect and effectiveness of the practice of methods, techniques and resources of research and scientific work methodology, in the resolution of problems that require the use of creative and innovative ideas.
  • AC6.3 : Articulate and deploy with rigour and scientific attitude the justifications on which to elaborate, support, substantiate and justify in a constant and professional manner all acts, decisions, processes, procedures, actions, activities, tasks, conclusions, reports and professional performance.
  • AC6.4 : Articulate and deploy procedures, processes, protocols, own analysis, with rigour and scientific attitude on matters of social, legal, economic, scientific or ethical nature, when necessary and relevant in any professional sector of physical activity and sport (formal and informal physical and sports education; physical and sports training; physical exercise for health; management of physical activity and sport).

 

 

 

Learning outcomes (Training objectives)

  • To learn about the latest trends in relation to strength training.
  • To learn in depth about different methods of control and evaluation of strength training.
  • Communicate efficiently the guidelines for performing different strength exercises, as well as when making the relevant corrections during the execution of different tasks.
  • Know how to adequately search for bibliographic information on the most relevant topics of strength training in order to create a solid work base based on scientific knowledge.
  • Handle different tools used for the control and analysis of strength training in its different manifestations.
