Planning for the sporting excellence and well-being of Canadians
LTAD is a 7-stage Canadian model, a training,
competition, and recovery program based on develop-mental age — the maturation level of an individual — rather than chronological age. It is athlete centered, coach driven, and administration, sport science, and sponsor supported.
Athletes who progress through LTAD experience training and competition in programs that consider their biological and training ages in creating periodized plans specific to their development needs.
