CONTRACTION/ACTIVE REST PROGRAMS
• Endurance
• Resistance
• Strength
• Explosive Strength
These programs always begin with a warm-up phase� After this warm-up phase, a contraction cycles
phase followed by active rest occurs (the number of cycles depends on the program) and when all cycles
are completed, the program ends with a relaxation phase�
MUSCLE RELAXATION, RECOVERY TYPE PROGRAM
These programs consist of a single phase and have no contraction/active rest cycle� These are recovery,
muscle relaxation, pre-warmup programs� During this type of program, frequency variations can occur�
