Description
Summary:In beach volleyball as in other sports, the volume training decreases at the end of the preparation period before competition to improve technical-tactical aspects. Therefore, coaches focus on monitoring the training dose-response to quantify fatigue levels that might affect athletes' performance. Two elite athletes, defender (24 years, 84.0 kg, 1.74 m) and blocker (20 years, 87.0 kg, 1.94 m) participated in the study. Monitoring was performed for two weeks, preceding the South American Championship (2018) in Nova Viçosa, Bahia. The total weekly training load was calculated from the sum of the session rating of perceive exertion of each training day and expressed in arbitrary units. The athletes presented indicators of fatigue using the autonomic responses. Furthermore, the defender showed a reduction in neuromuscular performance. Moreover, athletes demonstrated specific demands according to the player's position.
