bowlers. Despite a significant relationship between acute (1 wk) external workloads and increased injury risk in the current week, no relationships were demonstrated between sRPEs and injury risk in the current or subsequent week. However, when both the external and internal acute workloads exceeded

with greater injury risk than in other playing activities. 1 Fast-bowling injury rates have been associated with both poor technique and bowling workloads. 1 – 3 A current method of monitoring the preparedness of fast bowlers includes planning and reviewing the chronic (28-d average) and acute (7-d

Clinical Scenario Workload monitoring and management of an athlete is often implemented by coaches and health care professionals as an essential training component. It is important to address workload to determine if an athlete is adapting to a training program, as training maximizes performance

system) during critical game moments. 2 The added playing time and altered tactics during overtime may increase game workloads encountered by players. Internal 3 , 4 and external 5 , 6 game workloads have only been reported for basketball players collectively across the competitive season rather than

than a passive view of perceptions. The effort-related attention model, which builds on Rejeski’s ( 1985 ) parallel-processing model, views attention allocation as an imperative mediator between physical workload and perceived effort/exertion ( Tenenbaum, 2001 ). Specifically, during low physical

appropriate workload monitoring strategies seems fundamental to prescribe adequate training stimuli. 4 – 6 In the last few years, an increasing number of studies quantified training loads (TLs) and game loads (GLs) in female basketball players, 4 – 6 whereas to the best of our knowledge, only one study has

immensely challenging for professional players, coaches, and support staff. Therefore, necessitating frequent workload monitoring and assessing the readiness to train through an efficient and sensitive tool are an essential part of practice. Research in cricket has typically reported external measures of

sessions). 5 Internal TL is the individual physiological and/or psychological response to an external TL. 5 Several TL models can be derived from these internal and external TL measures, including acute:chronic workload ratios (ACWR) and exponentially weighted moving averages (EWMA). The ACWR captures

sport. Despite the exponential growth in the number of research studies dedicated to this new Olympic sport, 4 however, training load periodization in international rugby sevens players remains unexplored. The purpose of this study was to characterize the workload distribution in an international Rugby
