Popis: This study compared the sensitivity of peak running speed (PRS) measured during a submaximal run test (SRT) with a countermovement jump (CMJ) test to provide an alternate method of measuring neuromuscular fatigue (NMF). The study involved 20 semi-professional academy soccer players who performed a SRT and CMJ test, 24-hours pre-match, 24-, 48-, 72- and 96-hours post-match. Moderate decreases (effect-size (ES) +/- 90% confidence intervals) were observed 24-hours post-match for CMJ(H); ES -0.70 +/- 0.19, CMJ(PV); ES -0.92 +/- 0.27 and PRS; ES -0.58 +/- 0.11 with small decreases in CMJ(H); ES -0.36 +/- 0.13 and PRS; ES -0.27 +/- 0.23 still evident 48-hours post-match before returning to baseline 72-hours post-match. The results confirm PRS as an inexpensive alternate method of measuring NMF which, allows instantaneous real-time feedback on NMF. This can allow changes to be made immediately on-field within the post-match recovery phase without the need for further analysis or equipment.
