TL estimates were strongly correlated with Edwards' TL regardless of information source (coach or athlete) or time point (SRPE-CI TL or SRPE-CO TL). Results suggest coaches' perceptions validly indicated TL. Coaches' perceptions provide parallel information (correlated strongly with Edwards TL), but not identical information (demonstrated by differences in SRPE) as athlete perceptions. Differences in perceived recovery indicate coaches overestimate recovery when compared to athletes' perceptions.
