The Evolution of Periodization

The Tudor Bompa Story


This is the firsthand account of how Tudor Bompa, the creator of the periodization training method, became a sports science legend. From his early years and experience with rowing, defection from communism and struggling to learn English, earning a PhD in biomechanics, and becoming a professor at the University of Toronto, to the conceptualization of periodization, Dr. Bompa details his journey and how his training methodology—periodization—evolved into the greatest method in sports science training of the 20th century.
Dr. Bompa recounts how he used periodization to effectively train several Olympic athlete legends on their paths to victory and underscores how periodization, even today, is often misunderstood, inaccurately portrayed, and ineffectively used.
Fred Koch, a close confidante of Dr. Bompa, contributes a section to the book, describing his journey to make periodization available to the masses and how its methodology is used to train athletes and bodybuilders, ultimately modernizing the periodization training method.
This autobiography fills in the gaps between what has been written and what has occurred. It is a riveting account of the man behind periodization and how this training method evolved and became the most widely used methodology of sports training in history—still relevant today.
