Longitudinal monitoring of workloads in women's division I (DI) collegiate basketball across four training periods [PDF]
Women's collegiate basketball is a fast-growing, dynamic sport that spans 8 or more months, with athletes competing in 30 + games in a season. The aim of this study was to quantify and profile the external load of practices and games during a Power-5 DI ...

A comparison between the planned and actual external loads experienced during training in a professional, male basketball team [PDF]
IntroductionComparisons between the training loads encountered by players to those planned by coaches using external load metrics are largely absent in the team sport literature.

Validity and reproducibility of match-derived ratios of selected external and internal load parameters in soccer players: A simple way to monitor physical fitness? [PDF]
The study aim was to assess whether match-derived external-to-internal load ratios are a valid and reliable tool to measure physical fitness. Sixteen elite youth soccer players (17±1 years) performed two maximal fitness tests.

The biomechanical and physiological response to repeated soccer-specific simulations interspersed by 48 or 72 hours recovery [PDF]
Purpose To assess the residual fatigue response associated with the completion of two successive soccer-specific exercise protocols (SSEP). Methods Twenty male soccer players were pair-matched before completing SSEPs, interspersed by either 48 or 72 h ...

A New Approach to Quantify Soccer Players’ Readiness through Machine Learning Techniques
Previous studies have shown that variation in PlayerLoad (PL) could be used to detect fatigue in soccer players. Machine learning techniques (ML) were used to develop a new locomotor efficiency index (LEI) based on the prediction of PL.

Analysis of stress tolerance, competitive-anxiety, heart rate variability and salivary cortisol during successive matches in male futsal players [PDF]
Background This study aimed to compare the stress tolerance, competitive anxiety, heart rate variability and salivary cortisol before and during successive futsal competitive matches (3 matches in 4 days) in young male futsal players.
