TL;DR: The results demonstrate that rugby sevens is a demanding sport that places stress on both the anaerobic glycolytic and aerobic oxidative energy systems and strength and conditioning programs designed to train these energy pathways may prevent fatigue-induced reductions in physical performance.

TL;DR: Key performance indicators and this performance assessment method might be useful to better understand what determines winning and to assist the overall training process and match management.

TL;DR: This study suggests that training sessions aimed at increasing the capacity of repeated sprint ability in nonlinear and multidirectional sprints (shuttle and change of direction) might imply a different number of trials within the set or different exercise to rest ratios from the ones usually adopted for straight sprinting, to induce similar trends of fatigue.

TL;DR: No significant differences between elite and sub-elite Italian hockey players were found both in distance covered measured, even at different speed intensities, and in heart rates, and significant differences with Effect Sizes ranging from small to very large, were found in accelerations.

TL;DR: Muscular power, flexibility and coordination represent the basics of karate fitness component and short term high-intensity karate training represents an effective method for enhancing muscular power and range of motion in young karate athletes aged between 8 and 12 years.
