Previous edition (published 2000) – Methodology:
•Task 16 – NCI Victoria (Roger Archambault)
•Converted into a new LTADM for Biathlon Canada as Task 13
•Data collected from 6 leading biathlon nations over 6 months
•Norway, Germany, France, Finland, Austria, Czech Rep
•Data collected from Training center programs 1993-1998
•Most significant difference “Implementation”
•Need for systematic review addressed in 2005 by an
Athlete Development Committee
•Included all National coaches
•Sports Physiologist, Psychologist and Biomechanist
•Cross Nation Validation (16 coaches from 8 Divisions) 3-day
review via Sport Specific Task #16
•NCCP Best Practices
•Final Draft Completed in May 2006.

Four Year Plan for a Group of Biathletes,
Aged 13 - 17
• Divide into groups of 3 – 4,
• Sit with someone you don’t know,
• What are the main guidelines and considerations for the plan?
• Organize your discussion around these categories:

 Physical
 Technical
 Psychological
 Tactical
One person per group will report back in 20 min:

LTAD Chronology
Peak Height Velocity (PHV) – Pubertal Marker
•PHV = Year 1 of Train To Train
•PHV = Individual schedule
•PHV = Serious endurance training
•PHV = Same trainable characteristics
•PHV = Earlier for females
