This power point presentation describes the meaning, principles, causes, symptoms and remedies of over load.

1. MEANING, PRINCIPLES, CAUSES, SYMPTOMS AND REMEDIES OF OVER LOAD Prof. Dr. A.MAHABOOBJAN Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli, Tamilnadu, India.

2. Over Load During training of sports persons, load is given to the players according to their capacity. Whenever this load goes beyond the capacity of an individual, the physiological and psychological functions get disturbed. Though this increased load does not affect the sports person immediately, if the administration of the overload continues for a longer period, it results in decrease of his/her performance. It is a state of psychological and physiological deterioration resulting in decrease in performance capacity. It is the state of decrease in performance capacity. A sportsman has to tolerance not only training load but also he has to tackle other than training. Eg . Study, family, profession load etc..

3. When the total load per day is optimum, the performance capacity improves steadily, but when the total load is beyond his capacity to tolerance, then full recovery cannot take place after each day’s training. Therefore, from day to day there is accumulation of fatigue with the result that the performance capacity starts decreasing.

4. Progression of Load To improve the performance, the load should be increased from time to time. Eg . Intensity, volume or both ; change of physical exercise ; ground and surface ; training frequency.

5. Methods of Progressive TRAINING Linear Method Step Method Fluctuation Method

6. Methods of Progressive Cond … Linear Method: Load may be increase session to session. The children and beginners can use this method. Step Method: Load may be increase step by step and maintained few training session. When the load is adopted the load may be increased. Fluctuation Method: Load may be increase flexibly and maintained few training session. When the load is adopted the load may be increased. If the load is not adopted load may be decreased. After adaptation again the load should be increased.

7. Principles of Over Load The  Overload Principle  is a basic sports fitness training concept. It means that in order to improve, athletes must continually work harder as they their bodies adjust to existing workouts. The body reacts to the stress and stimuli. If you want to improve you must increase the amount of stress and stimuli. This can be achieved by increasing the frequency, intensity or duration of training.

8. Causes of Over Load Major Error in Training Way of Living Environment Health Disturbance

9. Causes of Over Load Cond … Major Error in Training : In sufficient recovery Rapid increase of load without adaptation Too high volume of loads Too high intensity

10. Causes of Over Load Cond … Way of Living : In sufficient night sleep Irregular daily routine Excessive use of alcohols, tobacco etc.. Bad living condition In sufficient leisure time/rest Un balanced diet Excessive Tea or coffee

11. Causes of Over Load Cond … Environment : Over stress Professional problems Tension High load due to job Mental stress due to study Poor result in exams and test

12. Causes of Over Load Cond … Health Disturbance : Fever, infections and illness.

13. Symptoms of Over Load 1.Physiological Symptoms ( i ) Movement Co-ordination 2.Performance Symptoms (ii) Conditional Ability (iii) Competition Qualities 3.Somatic- Functional Symptoms

14. Symptoms of Over Load Cond … 1. Physiological Symptoms: Increased excitability Quarrel some Less contact with coach and colleagues Increased sensitivity to criticism Depression, uneasiness Not at peace with himself Loss of confidence Loss of motivation

15. 2. Performance Symptoms: ( i ) Movement Co-ordination Less co-ordination Increased movement error Decreased concentration Decrease correction ability Decreased differentiation ability

16. (ii) Conditional Ability Decrease in conditional abilities Slow recovery (iii) Competition Qualities Decreased competition readiness Inability to face difficult situations Demoralized increase tendency to surrender in a competition

17. 3. Somatic- Functional Symptoms Loss of sleep Loss of appetite Loss of weight Disturbance of digestion Sweating easily Increase susceptibility to injuries and sensitive to criticism Decreased in vital capacity Slower pulse recovery

18. Remedies of Over Load ( Tackling of over load) Increase all the means of recovery Training load should be considerably reduced Competition and trails should be avoided Additional means like diet, physiotherapy, massage, yoga, progressive relaxation technique should be adopted Sportsman must medically examined

19. Remedies of Over Load Cond … Cases of over load should be removed Total load should be reduced Meeting with players parents, friend and other important members connected should be arranged Finally the training should be started again with revised training plan with less load.

20. Adaptation Process and Training Load   Adaptation is defined as the adjustment of physical and psychological functional systems to the training load. Adaptation to a load results in the enhancement of performance capacity. Thus, a sports person is able to increase his/her performance as a result of adaptation process. Adaptation process demands that a sports person maintains regularity in training. If a sports person is exposed to new and unfamiliar load in a systematic planned way the adaptation process will be faster.
