Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether the variable dose-response model, with estimates free to vary over time, can account for overreaching during intensified training in swimmers.
Methods: A time-varying model using a recursive least squares algorithm was applied to data from eight swimmers collected over 61 weeks, comprising five training cycles. Each data set included daily training load calculated from pool kilometers and dry land training equivalents, and performance measured twice weekly from 50 m trials.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the reliability and validity of the predicted distance-time relationship in the severe-intensity domain from a 3-minute all-out running test (3MT).
Methods: Twelve runners performed two 3MTs (test #1 and test #2) on an outdoor 400-m track after familiarization. Eighteen-hertz Global Positioning System data were used to estimate critical speed (CS) and distance covered above CS (D').
Article Synopsis
- * Results showed significant improvements in V̇O 2max and dynamic force production by the second week, but improvements plateaued despite ongoing training, with no changes in isometric force or maximal power output.
- * While SIT effectively boosted short-term fitness, the findings suggest that for continued progress, incorporating other training types like endurance or resistance workouts may be necessary.
Background: Recovery is a key factor to promote adaptations and enhance performance. Sprint Interval Training (SIT) is known to be an effective approach to improve overall physical function and health. Although a 2-day rest period is given between SIT sessions, the time-course of recovery after SIT is unknown.

Methods: Each session consisted of 30-second running bouts repeated 4 to 7 times interspersed by 4 minutes of recovery.
