Long-Term Athlete Development

The foundation for the Canadian Sport For Life LTAD plan is the 10 key physiological factors established by years of experience and sport science. Created around these principles, Optimo Sport Training Software makes implementing a LTAD plan easier, more effective and is the ideal training and monitoring tool for all Olympic sport athletes.

	The 10-Year Rule -Optimo Sport makes it easy to build and modify a multi-year training plan and then monitor and modify that plan to ensure that the athletes are achieving all the critical goals. Key performance factors for your sport can be integrated into the software.

	FUNdamentals - A data-base that includes Videos can be created to show coaches and athletes the proper movement and skills required for their sport. You can assign the videos to planned workouts for athletes and share them with other coaches on your network.

	Specialization - Optimo Sport can collect data from multiple sports prior to specialization and it allows coaches to customize the software to monitor all forms of data.

	Development Age - To easily identify Peak Height Velocity and Peak Strength Velocity, Optimo Sport can track height and weight for all athletes on your network. Additional complete Body Measurements assessments with Sum of Skin-folds and Skeletal Muscle Mass measurements is also available.

	Trainability - Using the development and chronological age of the athletes, the windows of Trainability are maximized by integrating specific training focuses.

	Physical, Emotional and Cognitive Development - Psychological analysis with Training Intensity Scales, DALDA, and other personalized feed-back, will give the coach a better understanding of what effect the training has on a developing athlete.

	Periodization - Optimo Sport is built around the Annual Plan, and can be easily expanded to a multi or Quad Cycle plan. Phases, Meso or Micro cycles can be be adjusted for individuals at different development stages.

	Calendar Planning for Competition - Competition/training ratios are calculated in the training planner and are tracked over the career of an athlete.

	System Alignment and Integration - Your National Sport Organization can set specific LTAD features on your Training Network, and allow all the Provincial Sport Organizations and Clubs to copy the plan. This will ensure that all stakeholders get the critical information they need to be part of the LTAD set out by their NSO.

	Continuous Improvement - Optimo Sport is a Dynamic software, and new widgets can be created to track any new measurements that will come from the sport scientists in your sport.
