Repeated-Sprint Training With Blood Flow Restriction: A Novel Approach to Improve Repeated-Sprint Ability?

Strength & Conditioning Journal, 2023
ABSTRACT Team sport athletes commonly perform repeated short-duration sprints (≤10 seconds) separated by brief recovery periods (≤60 seconds). The ability to maintain performance over a series of sprints is termed repeated-sprint ability (RSA).

Effects of Ramadan fasting on repeated sprint ability in young children

Science and Sports, 2012
Aim To investigate the impact of intermittent Ramadan fasting on the ability of children to perform repeated sprints. Methods and results Eighteen children performed 6 × 15 m sprints (15 s rest) before, during (1st and 4th week) and after (2 and 4 ...

Gender differences in repeated sprint ability

Isokinetics and Exercise Science, 2018
BACKGROUND: Despite the fact that there is considerable research in gender related differences in athletic performance, limited studies have been found related with the gender differences in repeated sprint ability (RSA).

Repeated-Sprint Ability: Where Are We?

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 2012
Repeated-sprint ability (RSA) is now well accepted as an important fitness component in team-sport performance. It is broadly described as the ability to perform repeated short (~3–4 s, 20–30 m) sprints with only brief (~10–30 s) recovery between bouts. Over the past 25 y a plethora of RSA tests have been trialed and reported in the literature.

Influence of cerebral and muscle oxygenation on repeated-sprint ability

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2010
The study examined the influence of cerebral (prefrontal cortex) and muscle (vastus lateralis) oxygenation on the ability to perform repeated, cycling sprints. Thirteen team-sport athletes performed ten, 10-s sprints (with 30 s of rest) under normoxic (F(I)O(2) 0.21) and acute hypoxic (F(I)O(2) 0.13) conditions in a randomised, single-blind fashion and

Intermittent Endurance and Repeated Sprint Ability in Soccer Players

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2010
The ability to perform high-intensity intermittent exercise (i.e., Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test [Yo-Yo IR1]) and to repeat sprints with relatively short recovery times (i.e., 20- to 30-seconds, relatively short time interval [repeated sprint ability (RSA)]) has been shown to be relevant fitness variables in soccer.

Development of repeated sprint ability in talented youth basketball players

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2013
Factors affecting repeated sprint ability (RSA) were evaluated in a mixed-longitudinal sample of 48 elite basketball players 14-19 years of age (16.1 ± 1.7 years). Players were observed on 6 occasions during the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons. Three following basketball-specific field tests were administered on each occasion: the shuttle sprint test for ...

The effect of short-term sprint-interval training on repeated-sprint ability

Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, 2010
Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether short-term sprint-interval training (SIT) would enhance repeated-sprint ability (RSA) via improvements in power output, work decrement and oxygen uptake in recovery. Methods: Eight male, recreational team-sport players (mean±SD age: 21±2 y, body mass: 78.1±4.3 kg) completed a ...

The effect of slope on repeated sprint ability in young soccer players

Research in Sports Medicine, 2016
This study aimed to describe a gradient repeated sprint ability (RSA) test in comparison with a standard level one by investigating performance, metabolic demand and muscular jumping performance as a proxy for running mechanics. Eighteen athletes performed two level RSA tests (40 m × 6) - for reliability evaluation - and one ±5% gradient RSA test ...

Effects of sodium phosphate and caffeine loading on repeated-sprint ability

Journal of Sports Sciences, 2015
The effects of sodium phosphate and caffeine supplementation were assessed on repeated-sprint ability. Using a randomised, double-blind, Latin-square design, 12 female, team-sport players participated in four trials: (1) sodium phosphate and caffeine, (2) sodium phosphate and placebo (for caffeine), (3) caffeine and placebo (for sodium phosphate) and ...
