Show Worked Solution

A is correct: Microcycles provide detailed planning for specific objectives over short periods (7-10 days) with precise training parameters including frequency, intensity and duration.

Other Options:

B is incorrect: Long-term annual planning is the function of macrocycles, not microcycles.
C is incorrect: General fitness development over months occurs through mesocycles and macrocycles.
D is incorrect: Season evaluation is part of transition phases, not microcycle planning purposes.
