“…In another study, the best time of a repeated sprint ability test correlated low to moderately with BF, SJ, and P mean (Nikolaidis, Dellal, et al, 2015). Moreover, evidence for the relationship between sprint performance and muscle strength was provided by studies using a longitudinal design and observing similar changes in both parameters over time (De Hoyo et al, 2015;Franco-Márquez et al, 2015), too. For instance, a 6-week resistance training program combined with plyometrics plus a soccer training program induced gains for both 20 m performance and CMJ (Franco-Márquez et al, 2015).…”

“…Faude et al (2013) identified that strength trained in combination with sprinting exercises resulted in greater adaptations in sprint speed as compared with strength training alone in high-level amateur soccer players. In another study on the effect of a plyometrics training program, including half-squat and leg-curl exercises, the experimental group improved both 20 m performance and CMJ (De Hoyo et al, 2015). Also, a study on adolescents showed that both 20m performance and CMJ increased over a 7-week plyometrics training program combined with soccer practice (Ramírez-Campillo et al, 2014).…”

Sprint ability is highly correlated to jumping performance (Faude, Roth, Giovine, Zahner, & Donath, 2013;Köklü et al, 2015), the running distance (Dellal & Wong, 2013), and quadriceps and upper body strength (Hrysomallis, Kosk, McCoy, Wrigley, & Club, 2013;Sander, Keiner, Schlumberger, Wirth, & Schmidtbleicher, 2013).…”

The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship of 20 m sprint performance with anthropometrical and physiological parameters in male soccer players. A hundred and 81 soccer players from the region of Athens (age 23.4 ± 5.0 yrs, body mass 73.4 ± 7.7 kg, height 180.0 ± 5.9 cm, body fat (BF) 14.4 ± 3.6%), classified into quartiles according to 20 m sprint time (group A, 2.84-3.03 s; group B, 3.04-3.09 s; group C, 3.10-3.18 s; group D, 3.19-3.61 s), participated. Soccer players in group A were younger and had better performance in vertical jumps and in the Wingate anaerobic test (WAnT, p < 0.05). Sprint time correlated to age (r = 0.27), body mass (r = 0.

The mission of the International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance (IJSPP) is to advance the knowledge of sport and exercise physiologists, sport scientists, sport physicians, and sport-performance researchers [promoting] the publication of research in sport physiology and related disciplines that has direct practical application to enhancing sport performance, preventing decrements in performance, or enhancing recovery of athletes.Nevertheless, of 902 IJSPP articles listed on Medline as of January 2016, only 7 have specifically investigated injuries and only 1 considered the effect of injury incidence on sport performance. 1 Recent studies confirmed that there is a significant relationship of injury rates and time loss with performance in elite team sports. [2][3][4] Injuries significantly influenced performance in male professional soccer (European Football) during 11 years of league and European Cup competitions. 2 More specifically, higher final league team ranking were associated with lower injury burden (P = .011) and higher match availability (P = .031). Similarly, increased points per league match were associated with lower injury incidence (P = .035), lower injury burden (P < .001), and higher match availability (P < .001). 2 Similar results were observed in a professional Middle Eastern soccer league, 3 with lower injury rate strongly correlating with team success: team ranking position (r = .929, P = .003), more games won (r = .883, P = .008), more goals scored (r = .893, P = .007), greater goal difference (r = .821, P = .003), and total team ranking points (r = .929, P = .003). Aside from soccer, team success over a 7-year period in professional rugby 4 has also been negatively associated with injury measures (70-100% likelihood). Injury-burden reduction of 42 days (90% CI 30-70) per 1000 player hours (22% of mean injury burden) was associated with the smallest worthwhile change in league points tally. Data such as these highlight the importance of evidence-informed injury prevention and management to increase positive match and competition outcomes in elite sport.Risk management is the overall process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks. 5 Relative to sport, this process is not possible without quantifying the incidence and severity of injuries, as well as associated risk factors and mechanisms. One important factor in that regard is to monitor training load. Recently, the relationship between training load and injuries in sport has been discussed. 6 Challenging the dogma that high training loads cause high injury rates, many studies across a range of sports have shown that excellent fitness reduces injury risk. Well-structured intensive training can have protective effects against noncontact soft-tissue injuries. On the other hand, undertraining has also been related to increased injury risk. Also, very high and/or steep increases in training load are associated with a substantial increase in risk. For instance, a recent review 6 reported a strong relationship (r = .86) bet...
