Factors to consider when assessing diurnal variation in sports performance: the influence of chronotype and habitual training time-of-day
TLDR
It appears that both chronotype and habitual training time-of-day need to be considered when assessing diurnal variation in performance, as both types had lower fatigue and higher vigour prior to the 18h30 TT.Abstract:
Purpose
The aim of this study was to compare morning and evening time-trial performance, RPE and mood state of trained swimmers, taking into account chronotype, habitual training time-of-day and PERIOD3 (PER3) variable number tandem repeat genotype.read more

Chronotype, Physical Activity, and Sport Performance: A Systematic Review
TL;DR: Sports trainers and coaches should take into account the influence of both the time of day and chronotype effect when scheduling training sessions into specific time periods.

The effects of time of day and chronotype on cognitive and physical performance in healthy volunteers
TL;DR: The results provide evidence to support the notion that ‘night owls’ are compromised earlier in the day, and offer new insight into how differences in habitual sleep patterns and circadian rhythms impact cognitive and physical measures of performance.

The Chronotype of Elite Athletes
TL;DR: Given that athletes are more likely to pursue and excel in sports which suit their chronotype, it is recommended that coaches consider the athlete’s chronotype during selection processes or if possible design and implement changes to training schedules to either suit the athletes’ chronotype or the timing of an upcoming competition.

The Variability of Sleep Among Elite Athletes.
TL;DR: A review of the current available literature regarding the variability of sleep among elite athletes and factors possibly responsible for this phenomenon is provided and methodological approaches to better address the inter-individual variability ofSleep in future studies with elite athletes are provided.

Resetting the late timing of 'night owls' has a positive impact on mental health and performance.
TL;DR: The findings propose a novel strategy for shifting clock timing towards a pattern that is more aligned to societal demands that could significantly improve elements of performance, mental health and sleep timing in the real world.

TL;DR: Although the questionnaire appears to be valid, further evaluation using a wider subject population is required, as sleep habits are an important déterminant of peak time there are other contibutory factors, and these appear to be partly covered by the questionnaire.

TL;DR: An algorithm is established which optimises chronotype assessment by incorporating the information on timing of sleep and wakefulness for both work and free days, because sleep duration strongly depends on chronotype.
