BACKGROUND: The most demanding scenarios and physical demands of elite basketball 5-on-5 scrimmages are unknown to trainers, although recent advances in microtechnology allow the gaps …
The aims of the study were to 1) describe the peak locomotor intensity sustained during handball matches and 2) compare them with small-sided games (SSGs) …
Objective: To examine the validity and inter-unit reliability of 10 Hz GPS for measuring instantaneous velocity during maximal accelerations. Design: Experimental. Methods: Two 10 Hz …
The quantification of external load through global positioning systems (GPS) is now commonplace across the different football codes. Despite this acceptance amongst sports science practitioners, …
This study assessed the influence of training load, exposure to match play, and sleep duration on two daily well-being measures in youth athletes. Forty-eight youth …
The study investigated how speed and acceleration varied among different small-sided game (SSG) formats (2v2, 3v3, and 4v4) in comparison to competition in elite male …
The current study examined how sleep may be influenced by the scheduling of training and match load within 10 youth soccer players. Sleep was measured …
Participation in soccer match-play leads to acute and transient subjective, biochemical, metabolic and physical disturbances in players over subsequent hours and days. Inadequate time for …
To address the individual intensity of locomotion tasks, individualized speed thresholds have been proposed as an alternative to global speed thresholds. However, methodologies for determining …
The aim of the present study was to examine the ability of a GPS-embedded accelerometer to assess stride variables and vertical stiffness (K), which are …
Purpose: To compare the sensitivity of a submaximal run test (SRT) with a countermovement jump (CMJ) test to provide an alternate method of measuring neuromuscular …
