Popis: Purpose To assess the residual fatigue response associated with the completion of two successive soccer-specific exercise protocols (SSEP). Methods Twenty male soccer players were pair-matched before completing SSEPs, interspersed by either 48 or 72 h. Outcome variables were measured every 15 min, and comprised uni-axial measures of PlayerLoad, mean (HR) and peak heart rate (HR peak ), blood lactate concentration, mean and peak ( V ˙ O 2peak ) oxygen consumption, and rating of perceived exertion (RPE). Results No significant ( P > 0.05) group interactions were identified for any outcome variables. Uni-axial (and total) PlayerLoad exhibited a significant ( P peak and V ˙ O 2peak also exhibiting significantly higher values in the first trial. There was also a significant ( P = 0.003) trial*time interaction for RPE. Conclusions With equivalence at baseline, there was no difference in the fatigue response associated with two SSEPs interspersed by either 48 or 72 h recovery. The current study has implications for the design and micro management of training and competition schedules.
