J Strength Cond Res 24(3 ) : 597 - 603 , 2010-The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between training load , recovery , and monthly field test performance in young elite soccer players to develop training guidelines to enhance performance . In a prospect i ve , nonexperimental cohort design , 18 young elite soccer players registered training and match duration for a full competitive season by means of daily training logs . Furthermore , session rating of perceived exertion ( RPE ) and total quality of recovery ( TQR ) scores were recorded . Weekly duration ( TLd ) , load ( duration × session RPE = TLrpe ) , and TQR scores were calculated for 1 and 2 weeks before a monthly submaximal interval shuttle run tests to determine interval endurance capacity . Participants spent on average 394.4 ± 134.9 minutes per week on training and game play with an average session RPE of 14.4 ± 1.2 ( somewhat hard ) and TQR of 14.7 ± 1.3 ( good recovery ) . R and om intercept models showed that every extra hour training or game play result ed in enhanced field test performance ( p < 0.05 ) . Session RPE and TQR scores did not contribute to the prediction of performance . The duration of training and game play in the week before field test performance is most strongly related to interval endurance capacity . Therefore , coaches should focus on training duration to improve interval endurance capacity in elite soccer players . To evaluate the group and individual training response , field tests should be frequently executed and be incorporated in the training program The purpose of the present study was to examine the influence of direct supervision on muscular strength , power , and running speed during 12 weeks of resistance training in young rugby league players . Two matched groups of young ( 16.7 ± 1.1 years [ mean ± SD ] ) , talented rugby league players completed the same periodized resistance-training program in either a supervised ( SUP ) ( N = 21 ) or an unsupervised ( UNSUP ) ( N = 21 ) environment . Measures of 3 repetition maximum ( 3RM ) bench press , 3RM squat , maximal chin-ups , vertical jump , 10– and 20-m sprints , and body mass were completed pretest ( week 0 ) , midtest ( week 6 ) , and posttest ( week 12 ) training program . Results show that 12 weeks of periodized resistance training result ed in an increased body mass , 3RM bench press , 3RM squat , maximum number of chin-ups , vertical jump height , and 10– and 20-m sprint performance in both groups ( p < 0.05 ) . The SUP group completed significantly more training sessions , which were significantly correlated to strength increases for 3RM bench press and squat ( p < 0.05 ) . Furthermore , the SUP group significantly increased 3RM squat strength ( at 6 and 12 weeks ) and 3RM bench press strength ( 12 weeks ) when compared to the UNSUP group ( p < 0.05 ) . Finally , the percent increase in the 3RM bench press , 3RM squat , and chin-upmax was also significantly greater in the SUP group than in the UNSUP group ( p < 0.05 ) . These findings show that the direct supervision of resistance training in young athletes results in greater training adherence and increased strength gains than does unsupervised training To examine the effects of aerobic interval training on the decline in short-passing ability caused by a short bout of high-intensity intermittent activities . For this r and omized controlled trial , 26 junior soccer players ( mean age , 17.8 + /- 0.6 years ; mean height , 178 + /- 5 cm ; mean body mass , 74.5 + /- 6.9 kg ) were recruited . After baseline measurements , subjects were r and omly allocated to 1 of 2 groups : the control group ( CG ) or the aerobic interval training group ( ITG ) . The ITG completed 4 weeks of high-intensity aerobic training , consisting of 4 bouts of running for 4 min at 90%-95 % of maximal heart rate , with 3 min of active recovery between sets , in addition to normal training .  Maximum oxygen uptake , Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test level 1 ( YYIRT ) , and short-passing ability ( measured using the Loughborough Soccer Passing Test ( LSPT ) ) were measured before and after a 5 min high-intensity simulation ( HIS ) , reproducing the most intense phase of a match . The ITG ( n = 11 ) , but not the CG ( n = 10 ) , showed a significant 12 % and 4 % increase in YYIRT and maximal oxygen consumption after training , respectively , and reduced the worsening in LSPT penalty time after the HIS ( p < 0.05 ) . The relative exercise intensity during HIS decreased in the ITG only ( p < 0.01 ) . Our results demonstrated that junior soccer players may benefit from aerobic training to attenuate the decline in short-passing ability caused by a short bout of intermittent activities completed at the same pretraining workload Objective In this study , the injury incidence and association with type and volume of training in international rowers were described . Design A prospect i ve cohort design was used over a 12-month period . Patients 20 international rowers who were competing as part of the Irish Amateur Rowing Union squad system . Methods The rowers were interviewed monthly , and data were collected regarding their training and competition exposure as well as their injury experience . Results A mean injury rate of 3.67 per 1000 exposure hours was reported with a total of 44 injuries reported in a 12-month period . The mean number of injuries sustained per athlete was 2.2 ( 1.24 ) over the 12-month period . The area where the greatest number of injuries were reported was the lumbar spine ( 31.82 % of total injuries , 95 % CI 20 to 50 ) ( fig 2 ) followed by the knee ( 15.91 % of total injuries , 95 % CI 10 to 30 ) and the cervical spine ( 11.36 % of total injuries , 95 % CI 5 to 24 ) . Half of the injuries ( 22 injuries , 50 % of total reported injuries ) were to the spine ( χ2 = 30.8 , df = 9 , p = 0.0003 ) . Ergometer training load was the most significantly associated with injury risk ( r = 0.68 , p = 0.01 ) . Conclusion International rowers are at higher risk of injury than most non-contact sports and some contact sports . The high risk of lumbar spine injury and the significant association of high volume of ergometer training merit further research to reduce time and competition lost to injury PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the magnitude of changes in cardiac output ( Qc ) , stroke volume ( SV ) , and arterial-mixed venous oxygen difference ( a-vO2 diff ) during submaximal exercise following a 20-wk endurance training program , with the primary focus on identifying differences in response by race , sex , and age . METHODS The participants in this study ( N = 631 ) were healthy and previously sedentary men ( N = 277 ) and women ( N = 354 ) of varying age ( 17 - 65 yr ) and race ( blacks , N = 217 ; whites , N = 414 ) who had completed the HERITAGE Family Study protocol . After baseline measurements , participants trained on cycle ergometers 3 d x wk(-1 ) for a total of 60 exercise sessions starting at the HR associated with 55 % of maximal oxygen uptake ( VO2max ) for 30 min/session and building to the HR associated with 75 % of VO2max for 50 min/session , which was maintained during the last 6 wk . HR , Qc ( CO2 rebreathing ) , and SV ( Qc/HR ) were determined in duplicate at 50 W and at 60 % of VO2max on two different days both before and after training . RESULTS After training , there were significant decreases in HR and Qc , and significant increases in SV and a-vO2 diff at 50 W ( except for no change in a-vO2 diff in black men ) . The changes in HR differed by sex and age , and the changes in SV , Qc , and a-vO2 diff differed by race . Qc decreased by 0.6 L x min(-1 ) at 50 W for the total sample , consistent with the decrease in VO2 at this power output . At 60 % of VO2max HR decreased , and SV , Q , and a-VO2 diff increased . There were small differences in response by sex ( HR and SV ) , race ( HR ) , and age ( HR and Qc ) . CONCLUSION It is concluded that the cardiovascular systems of men and women , blacks and whites , and younger and older subjects are not limited in their ability to adapt to endurance training The aim of this study was to compare the effects of specific ( small-sided games ) vs. generic ( running ) aerobic interval training on physical fitness and objective measures of match performance in soccer . Forty junior players were r and omly assigned to either generic ( n=20 ) or specific ( n=20 ) interval training consisting of 4 bouts of 4 min at 90 - 95 % of maximum heart rate with 3 min active rest periods , completed twice a week . The following outcomes were measured at baseline ( Pre ) , after 4 weeks of pre-season training ( Mid ) , and after a further 8 weeks of training during the regular season ( Post ) : maximum oxygen uptake , lactate threshold ( Tlac ) , running economy at Tlac , a soccer-specific endurance test ( Ekblom 's circuit ) , and indices of physical performance during soccer matches ( total distance and time spent st and ing , walking , and at low- and high-intensity running speed ) . Training load , as quantified by heart rate and rating of perceived exertion , was recorded during all training sessions and was similar between groups . There were significant improvements in aerobic fitness and match performance in both groups of soccer players , especially in response to the first 4 weeks of pre-season training . However , no significant differences between specific and generic aerobic interval training were found in any of the measured variables including soccer specific tests . The results of this study showed that both small-sided games and running are equally effective modes of aerobic interval training in junior soccer players Background : In professional soccer , a significant amount of training time is used to improve players ' aerobic capacity . However , it is not known whether soccer specific training fulfils the criterion of effective endurance training to improve maximal oxygen uptake , namely an exercise intensity of 90–95 % of maximal heart rate in periods of three to eight minutes . Objective : To determine whether ball dribbling and small group play are appropriate activities for interval training , and whether heart rate in soccer specific training is a valid measure of actual work intensity . Methods : Six well trained first division soccer players took part in the study . To test whether soccer specific training was effective interval training , players ran in a specially design ed dribbling track , as well as participating in small group play ( five a side ) . Laboratory tests were carried out to establish the relation between heart rate and oxygen uptake while running on a treadmill . Corresponding measurements were made on the soccer field using a portable system for measuring oxygen uptake . Results : Exercise intensity during small group play was 91.3 % of maximal heart rate or 84.5 % of maximal oxygen uptake . Corresponding values using a dribbling track were 93.5 % and 91.7 % . No higher heart rate was observed during soccer training . Conclusions : Soccer specific exercise using ball dribbling or small group play may be performed as aerobic interval training . Heart rate monitoring during soccer specific exercise is a valid indicator of actual exercise intensity Objectives —Although the nature of rugby injury has been well documented , little is known about key risk factors . A prospect i ve cohort study was undertaken to examine the association between potential risk factors and injury risk , measured both as an injury incidence rate and as a proportion of the playing season missed . The latter measure incorporates a measure of injury severity . Methods —A cohort of 258 male players ( mean ( SD ) age 20.6 ( 3.7 ) years ) were followed through a full competitive season . At a preseason assessment , basic characteristics , health and lifestyle patterns , playing experience , injury experience , training patterns , and anthropometric characteristics were recorded , and then a battery of fitness tests were carried out . Results —A multiple regression model identified grade and previous injury experience as risk factors for in season injury , measured as an injury incidence rate . A second model identified previous injury experience , hours of strenuous physical activity a week , playing position , cigarette smoking status , body mass index , years of rugby participation , stress , aerobic and anaerobic performance , and number of push ups as risk factors for in season injury , measured as proportion of season missed . Conclusions —The findings emphasise the importance of previous injury as a predictor of injury incidence and of missing play . They also show the importance of considering both the incidence rate and severity of injury when identifying risk factors for injury in sport OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the physiological responses to an intensified  rugby league competition  and explore the relationships between fatigue and match performance . DESIGN Prospect i ve cohort study . METHODS Fifteen junior rugby league players ( n=8 forwards , 7 backs ; mean±SE , age 16.6±0.2 years ; body mass 81.6±3.0 kg ; and height 178.9±1.8 cm ) competed in five 40min games  over 5 days ( two games each on days 1 and 2 , one game on day 4 , and no games on days 3 and 5 ) . Over the competition , players performed a countermovement jump to assess neuromuscular fatigue , provided a fingertip blood sample to measure blood creatine kinase , and completed a question

Of the few studies examining negative consequences associated with workloads , increases in training load led to increases in injury rates , while longer training duration was associated with a greater incidence of illness .
Conclusion The combined capacity for adolescent males to grow , train and improve physical performance highlights and underscores an exciting responsiveness to training in the football environment .
However , the capacity to train has some established barriers for adolescents experiencing high workloads , which could also result in negative consequences .
