Support strategies for high competition performance

Abstract

In high-level competition sports one of the most important aims throughout the season is that the player is able to recover as fast as possible to his or her physical and mental baseline condition after exercise so as to safely tackle their sport anew.

Advances in technology and the availability of increasingly more precise diagnostic tests (obtained from blood, urine or saliva samples) have led to a personalised approach to the sportsperson and individualised study of the training/match-recovery balance from a different, more realistic outlook of the situation.
