ranges from a few weeks to several months, one can easily imagine that an injury seriously affects a player’s aerobic fitness. 9 Fortunately, the negative effects of detraining on aerobic performance can be reversed by endurance training. 10 To accomplish this, training loads during the rehabilitation

screened neuromuscular ACL injury risk factors change significantly from preseason to midseason in women’s collegiate soccer athletes. A recently identified and rapidly emerging category of risk factor for many lower-extremity injuries is training load. 33 Training load can be defined as stress placed on

Therefore, the field evaluation and monitoring of these hormones (TT and C), together with the training load, can elucidate, with greater accuracy, the adaptive responses

The training load in the sports context is described as a fundamental variable to promote and monitor athletes’ responses. 1 Load is defined as the sport- and nonsport-related burden (single or multiple physiological, psychological, or mechanical stressors) as stimuli applied to a human biological

, it is essential to quantify the training load, once it will allow the implementation of the load progression required for neuromuscular function improvements. In the present study, we aimed to quantify the elastic constant of elastic tubes used in neuromuscular rehabilitation programs, predicting the

elite swimmers (13–25 y of age) recruited from 4 competitive swimming clubs in Australia. This study found weekly training loads for these able-bodied swimmers varied between 8 and 29 hours per week, with the median of16 hours per week. 30 The survey administered in the present study categorized
Intratester Reliability for Determining an 8-Repetition Maximum for 3 Shoulder Exercises Using Elastic Bands
Craig J. Newsam, Cindy Leese, and Jennifer Fernandez-Silva
Context:
Standardization of training load using the 1-repetition maximum (1RM) test cannot be directly applied when using elastic bands as resistance.
Objective:
To determine the intratester reliability for establishing an 8-repetition maximum (8RM) using elastic bands.
Design:
Test–retest.
Participants:
5 men, 10 women, 23–29 years.
Intervention:
An 8RM test was established for 3 shoulder exercises using the Dura-Band® exercise system.
Main Outcome Measures:
The length of the elastic band was recorded. An analysis of variance was performed, and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were calculated for each exercise.
Results:
Intratester reliability for determining the elastic-band length required to establish an 8RM was very high for internal rotation (ICC = .91) and high for external rotation (ICC = .77). The diagonal pull-down 8RM test had moderate reliability (ICC = .65).
Conclusion:
Training load can be reliably standardized in healthy young adults using moderate-to high-resistance elastic bands with a goal-based multiple-RM test.
