IPPT Training Guide

SIT-UP

-Lie on back with knees bent.

-No jerking or twisting movements for beginners.

-Breathe comfortably throughout the exercise.

-Don’t pull on your head when doing the exercise.

-Keep your chin off your chest, aim to keep your upper spine straight (neutral).

-Finish off by stretching out the abdominals to release the tightness and prevent shortening of your muscles.

Sit Up

Shuttle Run

– One of the best ways to improve your turns is simply to practise them as often as needed!

– Practise sprinting and turning – you may shorten the distance between turns to 5m as the emphasis here is the technique in turning

– Keep the number of turns low to avoid dizziness.

Shuttle Run

Standing Board Jump

– Start with easy exercises and develop in intensity and complexity.

– Shock  and  higher  intensity  plyometrics (e.g.,Depth Jumps) should not be used during periods  when the training volume is high.

– Recommended frequencies therefore range from 1session  per  week  (low  intensity  work  with beginners) to 3 low intensiy sessions per week in  an experienced performer.

Chin Ups

2.4 km Run

– An alternative form of Interval Training will be to run based on distance rather than time. Distances ranging from 150- 800 m.

– Example, using your 2.4km run timing as a goal and divide  by 6.  This would be what you will be aiming for 1x400m
distance. E.g. You want to achieve 9:30mins for your 2.4km  test. Therefore, your aim would be to complete 1x400m in
1:35min.

– Start off with 4x400m with a run-recovery ratio of 1:2 (e.g. Run 1:35 min, rest 3:10).

– Gradually  increase  the  sets  or  distance.  You  can  also  manipulate the recovery to make it more intensive, i.e. 1:1  (e.g. Run 1:35, rest 1:35).
