Abstract

The implementation of effective load control strategies in training is essential to improve performance. The purpose of this study was to make a first approach to monitoring load with a professional women's basketball team. Ten players were equipped with an inertial device and a heart rate band during one microcycle. The load supported by the players during training and competition was analysed using External Load variables: (i) Distance performed, (ii) Distance performed at high intensity, (iii) PlayerLoad, (iv) Jumps, (v) Accelerations and Decelerations, (vi) Peak and average speed; and Internal Load variables: (i) Average and peak heart rate, (ii) Zones of % peak Heart Rate. Differences between training and competition were analysed using an ANOVA. The competition was the most demanding condition in all the variables studied except jumps per minute.

Keywords: : Basketball, monitoring, inertial devices, UWB, woman.
