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 .
Background The expectation that training enhances performance is well explored in professional sport .
However , the additional challenges of physical and cognitive maturation may require careful consideration when determining workloads to enhance performance in adolescents .
Objective The objective of this study was to determine the state of knowledge on the relationship between workloads , physical performance , injury and /or illness in adolescent male football players .
Monitoring Load, Recovery, and Performance in Young Elite Soccer Players
Brink , MS , Nederhof , E , Visscher , C , Schmikli , SL , and Lemmink , KAPM . Monitoring load , recovery , and performance in young elite soccer players . 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
