Module 4: Injury prevention
When the workload ratio jumps
The topic
The programme treats the acute to chronic workload ratio (ACWR) as a useful prompt, not a verdict. In its own example an athlete shows a ratio of 1.6 with stable sleep and wellness, and the first step is to find out why the week was heavy: training, fixtures or a data error. Share what you do when the number goes up.
Questions to start from
- What do you look at first when the ratio jumps?
- What would make you change the following week's training?
