Proud of this one! Our research, led by my colleague @afortvan, found poor sleep, increased fatigue, and elevated injury risk during the luteal phases of the menstrual cycle of young athletes under intense training mdpi.com/3313072#mdpihealthcare via @HealthcareMDPI_
⚽ Our New Deceleration Research Paper shows:
⚡ Some players brake well in one COD test but struggle in others
🔑 Early-phase deceleration is key for COD
🏎️ Higher peak speed ≠ better deceleration
🛑 Late-phase shows the highest deceleration values
