The warm-up is considered beneficial for increasing body temperature, stimulating the neuromuscular system and overall preparing the athletes for the demands of training sessions and competitions. Even when warm-up–derived benefits are slight and transient, they may still benefit preparedness for subsequent efforts. However, sports training and com...
Introduction: The fluctuation of external match load throughout a season is influenced by several contextual factors. While some, have been deeply analysed in men’s football literature, information is lacking on how other contextual elements, such as player’s age or experience, may affect the match-to-match variability of locomotor activities. In f...
Purpose:
Microdosing of exercise aims to deliver smaller daily training doses but at a higher weekly frequency, adding up to a similar weekly volume as in nonmicrodosed training. This commentary critically discusses this concept, which appears to be a rebranding of the "old" distributed practice of motor learning.
Development:
We propose that mi...
Peak locomotor demands are considered as key metrics for conditioning drills prescription and training monitoring. However, research in female football have focused on absolute values when reporting match demands, leading to sparse information being provided regarding the degrees of variability of such metrics. Thus, the aims of this study were to...
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the physical performance of elite female football players during match play along with transient alterations in running performance following 1‐ and 5‐min univariate peak periods. 54 elite female players from four top‐level Norwegian teams were monitored for one season (n = 393 match observations)...
Quantification of training and match load is an important method to personalize the training stimulus’ prescription to players according to their match demands. The present study used time-motion analysis and triaxial-accelerometer to quantify and compare: a) The most demanding passages of play in training sessions and matches (5-min peaks); b) and...
We are witnessing the emergence of a myriad of hardware and software systems that quantifies sport and physical activities. These are frequently touted as game changers and important for future sport developments. The vast amount of generated data is often visualized in graphs and dashboards, for use by coaches and other sports professionals to mak...
Technology is having vast impact on the sports industry , and in particular soccer. All over the world, soccer teams are adapting digital information systems to quantify performance metrics. The goal is to assess strengths and weaknesses of individual players, training regimes, and play strategies; to improve performance and win games. However, mos...
The team tactical system and distribution of the football players on the pitch is considered fundamental in team performance. The present study used time-motion analysis and triaxial-accelerometers to obtain new insights about the impact of different tactical systems (1-4-5-1 and 1-3-5-2) on physical performance, across different playing positions,...
Performance development in international soccer is undergoing a silent revolution fueled by the rapidly increasing availability of athlete quantification data and advanced analytics. Objective performance data from teams and individual players are increasingly being collected automatically during practices and more recently also in matches after FI...
There is a rapid growing body of knowledge regarding physical aspects of a football match due to studies using computer-assisted motion analysis. The present study used time-motion analysis and triaxial-accelerometers to obtain new insights about differences in physical profiles of elite football players across playing-positions. Player performance...
There is a rapid growing body of knowledge regarding physical aspects of a football match due to studies using computer-assisted motion analysis. However, most studies have focused on distance covered at different speeds to explain match load, while information about physically demanding actions like accelerations, turns and position-specific movem...
Important physical parameters need to be analysed across matches and training sessions to control the load and specificity of training. It is of crucial importance for the coaches to know what kind of drills they need to include in their training sessions in order to prepare the players for the physical demands of a match. Besides, even though some...
