There is a group of girls at our gym who will be seeing a significant hours jump when the go back to "school schedule". (16 hours to 25 hours)
The coaches are confident that the girls can handle it. With my mom hat on, I worry about sleep, school and staying healthy. With my medical hat on, I worry about stress fractures and apophysitis risk from the hours jump.
Advice? Experience? Insight?
Coaches, do you consciously alter the training plans to prevent the stress reactions that can come with training jumps?
I'll admit, I am concerned.
