The quantification of external training load is crucial to understand the training process. However, it is equally as important to
The Preparation Period in Basketball: Training Load and Neuromuscular Adaptations
Davide Ferioli, Andrea Bosio, Johann C. Bilsborough, Antonio La Torre, Michele Tornaghi, and Ermanno Rampinini
The quantification of training load (TL) is a common practice in basketball, with the aim to ensure that players achieve an adequate training stimulus and to reduce the negative consequences of training (ie, risk of injury and nonfunctional overreaching) and the chances of undertraining. 1 , 2 The
Validity of the Training-Load Concept
Louis Passfield, Juan M. Murias, Massimo Sacchetti, and Andrea Nicolò
An athlete’s training can be quantified in terms of its training load (TL), an important concept originally devised by Banister et al 1 that combines training-session intensity and duration in a manner proposed to represent a “dose” of training. Cumulated over multiple sessions, TL is commonly

addition, triathletes have demonstrated alterations in CAR in response to a full season of training, with CAR emerging as a potential marker for monitoring training status. 17 With the above points in mind, the purpose of this study was to assess whether training loads observed during regularly scheduled
The Influence of Exercise Modality on Training Load Management
Øyvind Sandbakk, Thomas Haugen, and Gertjan Ettema
Training load management is crucial for the optimization of athlete training responses, competition readiness, and minimizing the risk of injury, illness, and nonfunctional overreaching. 1 Training load is traditionally determined by a series of components, such as training volume (duration
Dose–Response Relationship Between Training Load and Changes in Aerobic Fitness in Professional Youth Soccer Players
John F. Fitzpatrick, Kirsty M. Hicks, and Philip R. Hayes
The physiological response to a given training load is commonly called the dose–response relationship and is considered a fundamental component of training. 1 It has been suggested that a valid measure of training load should show a strong dose–response relationship with a particular training
