其他摘要:The aim of the study was to assess through the heart rate (HR) the intensity of training sessions with elite basketballplayers. Eleven basketball players belonging to a Leb Oro team used HR monitors during 12 training sessions providing 238 HR files.In each exercise the number of players, type of exercise, type of defense, dimensions of the field and time were analyzed, calculatingtheir HRmax, % HRmax, HRmed, and % HRmed depending on their specific positions (Guard, Forward and Centers). No significantdifferences were found based on the number of players or dimensions of the field, however more intensity was observed in the individualdefense (p < .01). Moreover, there is a tendency to have greater intensity at SUP and INF drills. Centers reached the highest intensityin drills with more spaces (1x1, 2x2, SUP, INF) while Guards showed greater intensity in 3x3, 4x4 y 5x5 drills. The results of this studywill help improve the planning and scheduling of workouts.
