... This finding is consistent with research among general adolescent populations that shows that more than half of US 16-year-olds regularly get less than 7 hours of sleep and that US adolescents commonly have schedules that restrict their sleep during the school year; more research is needed to further understand how inadequate sleep in young athletes may affect health, well-being, and performance. 6,24,29,36,40,42,43 This study also noted that 55% reported having felt physically exhausted and 45% felt mentally exhausted from basketball participation within the past year. Although multivariate analysis suggested that girls were more likely to report physical exhaustion, and less than 8 hours of sleep during the school year was also associated with this outcome, this question was added late in the survey period and the observations were thus limited to a subsample (n = 205) of the study group. ...

... These findings indicated that stem cells may have the potential to accelerate the muscle healing process and decrease the formation of scar tissue that affects normal muscle function. Results reported by Brickson et al. (2016) and Utomo et al. (2018) also supported the use of MSCs in treating muscle injuries. Only 1 clinical trial (NCT03068988) on muscle repair using MSCs is found in the clinical trial database (ClinicalTrials.gov). ...

... Absolute values for LVM, LVIDd and PWTd in the current study were comparable to those reported for 32 American female soccer players 13-18 years [38]. Interpretation and comparison of cardiac indicators across samples are influenced by body size and composition, but detailed information on the body dimensions of the American sample was not reported. ...

... Likewise, there was no significant difference in stress tolerance between the 3 weeks of training. This result can also be explained by the significant increase in sleep duration in the week of greatest training loads in the present study, considering that the negative impact of the training load on fatigue, mood, and stress is minimized by increasing sleep duration (53), indicating an adequate stimulus and recovery process during the analysis period. ...

... The injury Epidemiologic analysis of injuries in young soccer players incidence recorded was 2.44 [72]. Six studies [45,51,57,81,86,88] reported injury prevalence in the lower leg with a percentage ranging from 3% [90] to 9% [45]. For the knee, the value ranged from 16% [86] to 33% [92]. ...

... The results of this study have several implications. First, numerous studies have demonstrated that neither age-predicated maximum HR calculations nor maximum HR assessed by laboratory measurements of VO 2 max accurately predicts maximum HR performance during competition [15][16][17]. Moreover, the exhaustive review by Robergs and Landwehr [18] documents the shortcomings of all published approaches to estimating maximum HR in the laboratory. ...

... Daanen et al. concluded that HRR is an essential parameter for training control, however, it is also dependent on many other factors [15]. However, all included studies showed small study populations and different study designs [15][16][17][18]. ...

... Women's football (soccer) has changed exponentially, imposing greater match load (ML) and training load (TL) demands [1]. In terms of absolute external load, the total distance covered in a match increased from ~8.5 [2] to ~10 km [3,4], with 1,326 to 1,641 activity pattern changes, requiring decelerations, accelerations, sprinting or jumping [2]. ...

... However, in other sports (specifically soccer and hockey) that are also characterized by short-term recovery, athletes have shown to recover their HR quite similarly as our tennis players until the 30-s mark. 36 After the initial 30 s, these athletes were able to maintain their rate of recovery until the oneminute mark (the deflection point is maintained until the one-minute mark). Conversely, the athletes analyzed in the present study are not under the initial deflection point nearly after the 45-s mark. ...

... Moreover, aerobic system perturbation may reduce the overall endurance capacity of the athlete. Since a lower VO 2 max is an independent risk factor for indirect muscle injuries [54], we may suppose that an athlete who has contracted COVID-19 is subject to an increased risk of muscle injury. ...
