AEP Train to Win (T2W)
The ASDC-C offers a Train to Win (T2W) program as part of the Athlete Enhancement Program (AEP). The Train to Win (T2W) program is designed for National/International athletes who require a more advanced sport science program. T2W will provide one-on-one services for the advanced athlete in conjunction with their coach. Eligible athletes and their coach will be involved in designing the program based on individual needs. Individual sessions will be incorporated into the athlete’s annual training plan. An example of an Annual Training Program can be found on the ASDC-C website. The coach (with or through the athlete) will submit a sport science request as part of their ASDC-C mandated Annual Training Plan. Athletes must be competing at the national or international level, fit within the Train to Compete or Train to Win stage of the Canadian Sport For Life continuum, have a solid understanding and application of the sport sciences; reside in Central Alberta, and competes in Alberta Sport Connection recognized sports. For more information on this exciting new program, contact ASDC office at (403) 342-3231.

Athlete Enhancement Program Train to Win Athlete Application Page 1/3 Failing to plan is the first step in planning to fail. Periodization – the organization of a training program into phases and / or cycles each with a specific objective, volume and intensity, is the format utilized by coaches today when planning. The Annual Training Plan (ATP) is the roadmap to attaining the athlete’s short-term goals. The ATP when condensed provides the template for documenting all the elements of the plan in a systematic, cyclical and progressive fashion. To help in planning your training in the upcoming year, an analysis of the previous year is critical. Please complete the following questions to determine the best time to incorporate the services of ASDC to fit within your annual training plan. ASDC will support you with individual services which may include: 1) sport specific fitness testing and training, 2) VO2 max testing, 3) individual nutrition analysis or sessions, 4) individual mental skills training, 5) biomechanical analysis, 6) athletic therapy or 7) other services as deemed necessary for you as an athlete to grow in your sport. T2W athletes are welcome to participate in the Winning Edge Seminars throughout the season. PART A. SEASON ASSESSMENT - DEBRIEF/ GOAL SETTING These questions are offered to you to assist in deciding where you want to prioritize your training and improvement. The first 5 questions are general in nature (thought starters), and the next pages more specific and will provide a lot of information so you can formulate specific plans for improvement. Completing the worksheets will give the athlete and the ASDC a better understanding of where you are and where you need to improve. 1. What was the key to your success in the past season? 2. a. What was your best event last season? b. What did you do well? c. What do you feel you could have done better?
3. What do you feel were the most important components of your preparation?
