Encyclopedia of sports preparation and physical wellness: mental preparation, recovery, sports coaching, strengthening techniques and injury prevention.
Adaptation of High-Intensity Interval Training for clinical and sedentary populations, with scientifically validated protocols for cardiovascular, metabolic health and weight management.
Training method based on natural multi-joint, multi-plane movements that reproduce everyday and sporting gestures to improve overall functional capacity.
Versatile training program aimed at developing basic physical qualities — endurance, strength, flexibility, coordination — as the essential foundation for any sport practice and functional health.
Structured long-term training plan systematically alternating loading and recovery phases to optimize physiological adaptations and reach peak performance at the desired time.
Training phase targeting physical qualities specific to a given sport, with exercises reproducing the biomechanical and energy demands of competition.
Training method combining several sports disciplines and exercise modalities within the same program to develop complete physical conditioning and prevent monotony.
Set of psychological and physiological strategies to regulate performance anxiety, transform stress into positive energy and maintain optimal functioning during competition.
Mental preparation technique involving mentally creating or recreating sports experiences engaging all senses, to improve performance, confidence and motor learning.
Structured method for defining sports goals using the SMART model — Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bound — to guide motivation and progression.
Therapeutic application of extreme cold — cryogenic chamber or local applications — to accelerate muscular recovery, reduce inflammation and relieve post-exercise pain in athletes.
Massage technique specifically adapted for athletes, combining deep effleurage, kneading, friction and mobilizations to prepare for effort, accelerate recovery and prevent injuries.
Use of low-frequency electrical currents to induce involuntary muscle contractions for sports recovery, strengthening, rehabilitation and pain relief.
Battery of 7 standardized tests evaluating fundamental movement quality to identify asymmetries, mobility limitations and injury risks in athletes.
Progressive, multidimensional return-to-sport protocol guiding the injured athlete from rehabilitation completion to safe competition return, integrating objective validation criteria.
Training targeting proprioceptive sense — the unconscious perception of body position and movement in space — to improve joint stability, prevent injuries and optimize motor performance.
