Using the Session Rating of Perceived Exertion to Quantify Training Load in a Men's College Soccer Team.

Sams, ML, Wagle, JP, Sato, K, DeWeese, BH, Sayers, AL, and Stone, MH. Using the session rating of perceived exertion to quantify training load in a men's college soccer team. J Strength Cond Res 34(10): 2793-2799, 2020-The purpose of this study was to examine the training load (TL) programming of 3 training groups of a National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I men's college soccer team across a season.

The Physical Demands of NCAA Division I Women's College Soccer.

Extensive research into women's collegiate soccer is scarce, leaving gaps in the literature with little information available detailing the physical demands at different standards of play. Our purpose was to elucidate the physical demands of the Division I collegiate level and identify differences between playing positions. Twenty-three field players were observed during four competitive seasons using 10-Hz GPS units (Catapult Sports, Melbourne, Australia).

Skeletal Muscle Fiber Adaptations Following Resistance Training Using Repetition Maximums or Relative Intensity.

The purpose of the study was to compare the physiological responses of skeletal muscle to a resistance training (RT) program using repetition maximum (RM) or relative intensity (RI). Fifteen well-trained males underwent RT 3 d·wk for 10 weeks in either an RM group ( = 8) or RI group ( = 7). The RM group achieved a relative maximum each day, while the RI group trained based on percentages.

Defining the Early, Mid, and Late Subsections of Sprint Acceleration in Division I Men's Soccer Players.

Bellon, CR, DeWeese, BH, Sato, K, Clark, KP, and Stone, MH. Defining the early, mid, and late subsections of sprint acceleration in Division I men's soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 33(4): 1001-1006, 2019-The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the acceleration phase of sprinting could be split into subphases specific to the competitive demands of a soccer match by comparing sprint metrics at various sprint distances in Division I men's soccer players.
