What does autoregulatory training use to dictate the session intensity and volume?

Feedback from the athlete

Expectations from the coach

Team strength gain goals

What is one goal of autoregulatory training?

Reduce injury risk

Optimize adaptation

Maximize strength

What is one difference between the training of tactical service members and sports athletes?

Tactical service members require higher levels of muscular power

Sports athletes need more recovery time after training

Tactical service members do not have a peaking season

How can autoregulatory training help solve the challenge of not emphasizing recovery?

It rewards higher recovery scores with higher-intensity training

It mandates recovery days to balance out sleep deprivation

It replaces training with recovery to increase strength gains

How is adapting to training different from readiness to train?

Adapting to training requires less data to measure

Being ready to train is more objectively based

Adapting to training is more physiologically based

How is a Standard Tens (STEN) score calculated?

Z-score / 2

2 x z-score + 5.5

2 / z-score - 5.5

What can three consecutive days of low STEN scores indicate about a tactical service member?

They are recovering adequately between training sessions

The intensity of the training session is too low for adaptations

The individual is experiencing under-recovery from training

What is recommended for utilizing technology and coaching experience to train tactical service members?

Coaching experience should have precedence over technology

Technology should have precedence over coaching

They should work together to help optimize adaptations

Why is consistent data entry key when using autoregulatory programming?

It leads to the greatest increases in muscular strength

It helps individuals be compliant with their training plan

It decreases risk of injuries when training on their own

Why is it recommended to avoid describing workouts as “high, medium, or low” when training tactical service members?

Anything that is not high intensity may be ignored

These descriptors may be intimidating for some

More recovery is needed among this population
