Background The external movement loads imposed on players during competitive team
sports are commonly measured using global positioning system devices. Information …

The aim of this review is to investigate methodological concerns associated with sprint
performance monitoring, more specifically the influence and magnitude of varying external …

Recent studies have brought new insights into the evaluation of power-force-velocity profiles
in both ballistic push-offs (eg, jumps) and sprint movements. These are major physical …

This study aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of global (GPS) and local (LPS)
positioning systems for measuring distances covered and sprint mechanical properties in …

The study aims were to describe positional differences in the acceleration and sprint profiles
of professional football players in match-play, and analyse start speeds required based on …

Rapid horizontal accelerations and decelerations are crucial events enabling the changes of
velocity and direction integral to sports involving random intermittent multi-directional …

This study aimed (i) to explore the relationship between vertical (jumping) and horizontal
(sprinting) force–velocity–power (FVP) mechanical profiles in a large range of sports and …

Background Based on recent findings regarding the mechanical determinants of sprint
performance, resisted sled sprint (RSS) training may provide an effective tool for the …

The purpose of this study was to assess validity and reliability of sprint performance
outcomes measured with an iPhone application (named: MySprint) and existing field …

The aims of this study were to:(1) identify the representative external load profile of match-
play in Spanish professional soccer players by principal components analysis (PCA), and …
