Activity Profiles and Demands of Seasonal and Tournament Basketball Competition

Abstract

running, sprinting and high-intensity shuffling increased 11-81% (±~25%). There were 53 unclear differences in mean and peak heart rates. The total number of possessions was higher

Relationship between physical fitness and game-related statistics in elite professional basketball players: Regular season vs. playoffs

“…In contrast, females basketball players with higher VO 2 max were noted to play for longer durations 12 . Similarly, low to moderate correlations were observed between components of anaerobic power and the playing time in university players 29 .…”

“…regular season and playoffs, are available. A study that compared the physical (type of movements), physiological, and tactical demands of an elite under-18 Australian basketball team (n = 8 players) noted that these demands were more pronounced during an official competition than in a friendly tournament 12 . Nevertheless, the study did not seek to identify relationship between the several variables and performance in the two competition types.…”

Heart Rate Analysis of Semi-elite Female Basketball Players during Competitive Games

“…The obtained data can be useful when compared to the training process data to optimize the player's performance. Since the load in basketball has an intermittent nature a time-motion analysis should be added to these results (Hůlka et al, 2013;Klusemann et al, 2013).These results can create a solid base for conditioning and also game-based training programs. A higher number of measurements and participants could lead to a more generalized results.…”

“…Analysis of the load intensity in basketball, based on HR monitoring, has been implemented in several studies (Ben Abdelkrim et al, 2007;Hůlka, Cuberek, & Bělka, 2013;Klusemann, Pyne, Hopkins, & Drinkwater, 2013;Matthew & Delextrat, 2009;Rodríguez-Alonso, Fernández-García, Pérez-Landaluce, & Terrados, 2003;Scanlan, Dascombe, Reaburn, & Dalbo, 2012;Vaquera et al, 2008) Ben Abdelkrim et al (2007 report that the mean HR during a match in the men's U19 category was 91% of HR max and also found significant differences in mean HR between the guards and centers. Scanlan et al (2012) discovered a slightly lower value of a mean HR 82.4 % of HR max for basketball players at the national level.…”

Propuesta Metodológica del Entrenamiento de la Resistencia en Baloncesto mediante la Modificación de Factores Formales y Estructurales del Juego. [Methodological Proposals for Endurance Training in Basketball by Modifying Structural and Formal Aspects of the Game].

“…l baloncesto es un deporte de equipo con una elevada exigencia técnica, táctica y física de forma integrada en múltiples acciones que se desarrollan en un periodo de tiempo muy corto, condicionado por las reglas, los sistemas y estilos de juego (Ben Abdelkrim, Castanga, El Fazaa, y El Ati, 2010b;Klusemann, Pyne, Hopkins, y Drinkwater, 2013). Desde la perspectiva de los sistemas dinámicos, el baloncesto es un deporte de carácter no lineal, donde emergen diferentes acciones técnicas y tácticas a través de la interacción de los diferentes subsistemas del organismo con los oponentes y los compañeros de equipo, hecho que provocará que los contextos donde se desarrollen más todos estos elementos técnicos, tácticos y físicos, sean los más cercanos a la situación real de partido (Balagué, Torrents, Pol, y Seirul·lo, 2014;Davids, Araújo, Correia, y Vilar, 2013).…”
