Changes in perceived stress and and recovery relate to changes in submaximal performance in team sport players. Introduction In team sport, it is known that players perceive more stress and less recovery during the competition phase compared to pre-season (di Fronso et al., 2013). It is assumed that …

Runners often sustain lower extremity injuries (19-79%) (van Gent et al, 2007). In a theoretical model it has been described that a disturbance in perceived stress and recovery can increase the risk of sustaining an injury (Williams & Andersen, 1998). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate …

During tournaments, team sport athletes are exposed to high physical loads due to a large number of games played within a few days. To perform well and prevent injuries, recovery in between these games is crucial. To monitor the recovery kinetics the Total Quality of Recovery (TQR) is suggested as a …

To optimize performance, coaches and athletes are always looking for the right balance between training load and recovery. Therefore, closely monitoring of athletes is important. Heart rate recovery (HRR) after standardized sub maximal exercise has been proposed as a useful variable to monitor (Lamberts …

De john Moores University in Liverpool verwelkomde van 6 t/m 9 juli 2011 bijna 2000 sportwetenschappers, afkomstig uit zestig landen, voor het jaarlijkse ECSS congres. Het programma bestond uit ruim 400 lezingen en ruim 1200 posters. In dit artikel een beknopte impressie van dit congres.
