    Abstract

    Exercise regimen is an integral part of sports coaching, the goal of which is to improve an individual's athletic performance. In an effort to better understand and optimize athletic performance, exercise physiologists have developed mathematical models of physical training and performance. Banister model and "Training Stress Score", a method to quantify training load have been presented in this thesis. An overview of existing literature has been conducted and Banister model has been tested on training data of six road cyclists. Model's prediction quality has been proven poor and its shortcomings have been exposed during evaluation.
