SANTOS, Pedro; CASTELO, Jorge  and  SILVA, Pedro Miguel. O processo de planejamento e periodização do treino em futebol nos clubes da principal liga portuguesa profissional de futebol na época 2004/2005. Rev. Bras. Educ. Fís. Esporte [online]. 2011, vol.25, n.03, pp.455-472. ISSN 1981-4690.

Planning and periodization are assumed to be crucial phases directly implied in the efficiency, consistency and game quality of the teams. The aim of this work is to investigate: 1) the implementation of the “load`s” dynamics and its relation to periods; 2) “load`s” components and recovery importance; 3) intensity prescription; 4) the performance components considered in planning, its importance, hierarchy, and how they are developed; 5) the main aspect in planning; 6) the type of planning used in the team preparation; 7) the importance of game model in the training process. The universe under study is constituted by the eighteen “Superliga” teams in the 2004/2005 season. It was applied an inquiry by questionnaire validated by seven specialists. In representation of each one of the studying teams, this questionnaire was answered by sixteen main coaches and two assistant-coaches, by indication of the main coach. Although the results suggest that the paradigm of the physical dimension seems not to be the dominant training current, it still appears rather emphasized in “Superliga”. Some of the assumptions associated to the traditional training conception remain present in the work carried through, and are being frequently used. It seems to be usual to operate a planning based on the tactical dimension. In fact, this dimension is considered to be the “guide” of the process, and “drags” the physical dimension. Nevertheless, this doesn’t always happen. There are situations where the separation of the training factors is established; however the reference passes for working them, as always as possible, simultaneously. There is consensus in matter of the valuation given to the game model. Not all the coaches act according to their expressed beliefs.
