Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the literature on both singular and concurrent aerobic and strength training in children and adolescents. While adaptations to training may depend on physical development, models of physical development in youth will be discussed first. Thereafter, the effects of single-mode aerobic and strength training in children and adolescents are described and finally the effects of combined training are elucidated. The findings are reported in light of theories derived from studies in adult populations and with regard to potentially relevant factors such as (biological) age and training volume. Based on that, recommendations are proposed for the implementation of aerobic and strength training in young populations.
