Abstract
The same training stimulus can provide different physiological adaptations
for athletes of the same team. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze and compare
the load training of starters and nonstarters players, athletes of a men’s volleyball team at
different times of the season. The sample consisted of fifteen men’s volleyball superleague
athletes who were divided into two groups of starters and nonstarters players. The training load of the ten weeks of the team’s preparation period for the main championship
season in which no games were performed was selected for the study. The method of
subjective perceived of effort (session-RPE) proposed by Foster et al. (2001) was used
to quantify the training load. The group of starters players had higher total weekly training load (TWTL) and RPE values in the average of the ten weeks of training (p<0.05).
Higher TWTL values for starters players in the preparatory and pre-competitive period
compared to nonstarters players was also demonstrated (p<0.05). When different weeks
were analyzed separately, weeks three and seven presented higher TWTL and RPE values
for starters players compared with nonstarters players (p<0.05). The results presented in
this study showed that starters players showed greater internal training load compared
to nonstarters players.
