The dose-response validity of measures of training load in professional soccer players (2016)
Thesis
Svenson, R. P. (2016). The dose-response validity of measures of training load in professional soccer players. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220592

Introduction: There is currently a lack of research into the physical demands of soccer training despite it contributing towards 75-80% of weekly training load. A particular area requiring more focus is the does-response relationship between training... Read More about The dose-response validity of measures of training load in professional soccer players.

The effect of training mode on the validity of training load measures for quantifying the training dose in professional rugby league (2016)
Thesis
