The purpose of this study was to compare the internal load responses (session rating perceived exertion [RPE] and salivary cortisol) between simulated official matches (SM OM). Ten professional basketball players participated in 2 OMs SMs during competition season. Subjects provided saliva samples 30 minutes before prematch warm-up (PRE) 10 after end match. Session RPE (CR-10 scale) assessed each results from 2-way analysis variance showed significant differences for post-OM cortisol as...

Purpose: To analyze the effects of a very congested match schedule on total distance (TD) covered, high-intensity-running (HIR) distance, and frequency accelerations body-load impacts (BLIs) performed in team under-15 soccer players (N = 10; 15.1 ± 0.2 y, 171.8 4.7 cm, 61 6.0 kg) during an international youth competition. Methods: Using global positioning systems, player performances were repeatedly monitored 5 matches over 3 successive days. Results: Significant differences observed between...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to verify the influence aerobic fitness (VO 2 max) on internal training loads, as measured by session rating perceived exertion (session-RPE) method. Methods: Nine male professional outfeld futsal players were monitored for 4 wk in-season period with regards weekly accumulated session-RPE, while participating in same sessions. Single-session-RPE obtained from product a 10-point RPE scale and duration exercise. Maximal oxygen consumption determined during an...

Effect of competition on salivary cortisol, immunoglobulin upper respiratory tract infections in elite young soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 26(5): 1396–1401, 2012—The present study examined the effect a 20-day period mucosal immunity, (URTI) male players (n = 14). The were monitored during main under-19 Brazilian championship, which 7 matches played 20 days. Saliva samples collected morning...

The purpose of this study was to compare the session ratings perceived exertion (Session-RPE) responses and salivary cortisol (sC) immunoglobulin A (SIgA) levels between a regular season match (RM) final championship (FM) in elite male volleyball players against same opponent team. Higher importance assumed for FM because would define Session-RPE obtained after 30 minutes each using CR-10 scale. Saliva samples were collected before during rest day (baseline) at period matches. SIgA sC...

The study aim was to investigate the effect of a periodised pre-season training plan on internal load and subsequent stress tolerance, immune-endocrine responses physical performance in tennis players.Well-trained young players (n = 10) were monitored across period, which divided into 4 weeks progressive overloading 1-week tapering period.Weekly measures load, monotony tolerance (sources symptoms stress) taken, along with salivary testosterone, cortisol immunoglobulin A. One repetition...

This study investigated the effects of a congested match schedule (7 matches played in 7 days) on steroid hormone concentrations, mucosal immunity, session rating perceived exertion (S-RPE) and technical performance 16 elite youth soccer players (14.8 ± 0.4 years; 170.6 9.4 cm; 64.9 kg). No change was observed for salivary cortisol concentration across time points (P = 0.33; effect size [ES] 0.13-0.48). In contrast, there decrease testosterone IgA (SIgA) concentrations from 1st compared with...

Purpose: To examine the training periodization of an elite Australian Football team during different phases season. Methods: Training-load data were collected 22 wk preseason and 23 in-season training. Training load was measured using session rating perceived exertion (session-RPE) for all sessions matches from 44 professional players same team. intensity divided into 3 zones based on session-RPE (low, <4; moderate, >4 AU <7 AU; high, >7 AU). analyzed according to type completed....

The aim of this study was to compare the salivary cortisol (sC) and immunoglobulin A (sIgA) responses simulated official Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) matches. Saliva samples were collected from 9 male BJJ athletes before (pre) after (post) 2 matches (SMs) (OMs) performed during different competitions. Salivary sIgA concentrations (absolute concentration [sIgAabs] secretion rate [sIgArate]) measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. For sC, there effect condition (SM vs. OM) (p < 0.05) a...

The aim of this study was to analyze the changes on repeated-sprint ability (RSA) performance after heavy load exercise in elite handball players. Twelve subjects were submitted following experimental sessions: (a) 1-repetition maximum (1RM) test half squat exercise, (b) RSA (control condition), and (c) with a conditioning activity same as 1RM (experimental condition). comprised 1 set 5 × 50% 1RM, 3 70% sets 90% 1RM. A significant improvement best sprint time (RSAbest) mean (RSAmean)...

The purpose of this study was to examine the changes in salivary immunoglobulin A (SIgA), cortisol, and upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) their relationships with training loads (TLs) during a 4-week period intensive competitive season elite Brazilian futsal players.

Training load quantified...

Sports training and competition are significant sources of stress, especially for young athletes. It is well known that physiological psychological stressors induce neuroendocrine responses could modulate immune system function. However, to date, little about the soccer players during a competitive season. Therefore, this study examined effects 21-week season divided into preseason, season, detraining on salivary immunoglobulin A (SIgA), upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) symptoms,...
