Monitoramento da carga interna de treinamento em jogadores de futsal ao longo de uma temporada

Abstract

There is a need for studies on methods for control of load and description of periodization in futsal teams. The objective of this study was to report and analyze the internal training load in a macrocycle of futsal using the session rating of perceived exertion (session-RPE) method. The sample consisted of 13 athletes of the National League. We calculated the total weekly training load (TWTL), monotony and strain over 37 weeks. Using the paired Student's t Test, the preparation period (PP) showed higher TWTL, strain and monotony than the competitive period (CP). The ANOVA test of repeated measures, followed by the Bonferroni post-hoc test showed significant differences in the TWTL among the mesocycles: 1 > 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9; 7 > 4, 5, 8, 9; 2, 3 and 6 > 5, 8, 9; 4 > 5; 8 > 5 (p<0.05). The training loads (TL) were higher in the PP with reduction in the CP, with cycles of high load being required during the CP. The TL presents an oscillatory feature, and is adapted to the competition schedule.
