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 Changes in Rugby League Players' Perceived Stress and Recovery during Intensified Training
This study assessed whether the Recovery-Stress Question naire for Athletes ( RESTQ-Sport ) could be used to monitor changes in perceived stress and recovery during intensified training of rugby league players . 20 semiprofessional rugby league players were divided into two equal groups r and omly assigned to complete 6 wk . of Normal Training or Intensified Training , each followed with a 7-day taper . Multistage Fitness Test performance and RESTQ – Sport measures were taken at the beginning , at 2-wk . intervals , and at the end of the training period . Endurance significantly decreased with Intensified Training and returned to baseline levels following the taper , while remaining unchanged in the Normal Training group . The RESTQ – Sport scores with training were positively related to stress subscale scores ( Fatigue , Disturbed Breaks , and General Stress ) and recovery subscale measures ( Success , Physical Recovery , Being in Shape , Self-efficacy , Social Relaxation , General Well-being , and Sleep Quality ) decreasing in the Intensified Training group and then normalising following the taper ( Stress subscales : Fatigue and General Stress , and Recovery subscales : Physical Recovery and General Well-being ) . The RESTQ – Sport is a practical psychometric tool for monitoring responses to training in team-sport athletes
