Entwicklung der Kurzskala zur Erfassung von Erholung und Beanspruchung im Sport (KEB)
Zusammenfassung. Mit der Entwicklung einer Kurzform (Kurzskala zur Erfassung von Erholung und Beanspruchung im Sport; KEB) des Akutmaßes zur Erfassung von Erholung und Beanspruchung im Sport (AEB) wird dem Bedarf der Sportpraxis nach einem ökonomischen, validen und veränderungssensitiven Messinstrument zur Erfassung von Erholung und Beanspruchung nachgegangen. Nach einem vierstufigen Entwicklungs- und Validierungsprozess des AEB wurde aus den exploratorisch errechneten und konfirmatorisch geprüften Faktoren des AEB die KEB mit acht Items abgeleitet. Es konnten sehr gute Bereichshomogenitäten, moderate Interkorrelationen und hypothesenkonforme Korrelationen mit dem AEB berechnet werden. Der…
Evaluation of psychological measures for the assessment of recovery and stress during a shock-microcycle in strength and high-intensity interval training
Abstract The aim of this paper was a) to analyse the intraindividual change and criterion sensitivity of the Acute Recovery and Stress Scale (ARSS) and its abridged version the Short Recovery and Stress Scale (SRSS) in response to a 6-day microcycle of intensified strength training (STM) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in comparison with the change in the criterion measures maximal dynamic strength (estimated 1 repetition maximum [1RMest]; STM) or repeated sprint ability (RSA; HIIT), and b) to compare descriptively the results of the subjective measures with earlier reported physiological and performance markers of the same study. Participants were 23 (STM; 23.7 ± 2.0 years) and…
