【課表設計的科學與藝術】
分享《The System: Soviet Periodization Adapted for the American Strength Coach》書中的一段話，用簡潔直白的話語，把課表設計中的「科學」與「藝術」說得很清楚了，下面附上原文和我的譯文：

在整個(設計課表的)過程中，你的心理要明白力量教練所做的是一種結合科學與藝術的工作。科學要求的是認識事務運作的原理。如果你知道訓練背後的原理，就會知道如何進步。
如果你選擇使用這份課表，但卻不知道為什麼這樣練會有效，那只是運氣好。當你想著「太棒了，我的運動員一直進步！」此時你要捫心自問「接下來我要怎麼做？」如果你不知道之前是怎麼進步的，也不知道這樣的課表為什麼會有用，那你也不會知道怎麼調整課表才能讓運動員繼續進步下去。這就是「科學」的重要性。
至於訓練的「藝術」是指一些需要考慮不同現實情況的問題，以蹲舉這個動作為例，「我們都知道蹲舉很重要，所以蹲舉要練。」但現在問題是，「我們應該先練前蹲舉、背蹲舉還是分腿蹲？該從多少重量開始蹲？每組蹲幾下？蹲幾組？該怎麼教好這個動作？」
這些問題很少有清楚、明確的答案，你的思考過程必須考慮到許多因數。這就是訓練的藝術性。如果你問五十個教練這些問題，你可能會得到五十種不同的答案，而且並非所有的答案都適合你當前的情況。
在力量與體能訓練的領域，藝術性方面的問題是教練們最需要花時間和精力去培養與完善的。要分辨一位普通教練和菁英教練的差別，就是看他是否在訓練的科學與藝術素養之間取得平衡。

#原文如下
Throughout the process, is important to keep in mind that what we do as strength coaches is a combination of science and art. The science demands that we know why something works. That is imperative for the selection process, and if you know how something works, you will know how to progress it.
If you do not know why something works and you choose to use it, maybe you get lucky... and maybe you do not. When you think, “This is great! My athletes are getting better,” you need to ask yourself, “Where do I go from here?” If you do not know why something is working, you will not know how to progress or adapt it for continued gains. That is the importance of the science.
The art of coaching is saying to yourself, “We need to squat; we know that is important.” The question now is, “Should we front squat, back squat, or split-squat? What weight should we start with? How many sets and reps? How can I best teach this movement?”
These questions rarely come with clear, definitive answers, and your path will have to take into account the variables. This is the art of coaching. If you asked these questions of 50 coaches, you might get 50 different answers, and not all of them would be in your best interest to follow.
In the field of strength and conditioning, this is the aspect that takes the most time and commitment to develop and refine. Ultimately, cultivating balance between the art and science of coaching is what separates the elite from the average.
