A reasonable alternative to the Wbal models when maximal mean power profiling is used instead of critical power-based models

Zignoli, A. A reasonable alternative to the Wbal models when maximal mean power profiling is used instead of critical power-based models.

As an alternative to the Wbal models, a methodology based on maximum mean power profiling (MMP) is presented here to predict intermittent exercise performance potential.

Capturing the Complex Relationship Between Internal and External Training Load: A Data-Driven Approach

van der Zwaard, S., Otter, R. T., Kempe, M., Knobbe, A., & Stoter, I. K. (2023). Capturing the complex relationship between internal and external training load: a data-driven approach. International journal of sports physiology and performance, 18(6), 634-642.

Training load is typically described in terms of internal and external load. Investigating the coupling of internal and external training load is relevant to many sports. Here, continuous kernel-density estimation (KDE) may be a valuable tool to capture and visualize this coupling.
