Periodization refers to the planning of physical training by dividing it into various blocks of time, where each time fulfils a particular goal. It provides the body with diverse stresses that facilitate high speed, endurance and recovery for best performance in competition throughout the year (Prime Health Solutions, 2016, Feb 24). Periodization consists of three cycles. The macrocycle is the longest cycle, which focuses on gaining endurance, intensity, competition and recovery.
