FREITAS, Victor Hugo et al. Efeito de quatro dias consecutivos de jogos sobre a potência muscular, estresse e recuperação percebida, em jogadores de futsal. Rev. Bras. Educ. Fís. Esporte [online]. 2014, vol.28, n.01, pp.23-30. ISSN 1981-4690.

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of futsal games conducted on consecutive days on vertical jump performance test and stress and recovery of 11 professional players (male, 24.3 ± 5.0 years, 1.73 ± 0.07 cm, 75.7 ± 9.0 kg, 11.2 ± 4.1% fat). The team was monitored during the final phase of Paraná Open Games, with games in four consecutive days. The RESTQ-Sport questionnaire was applied before and after the competition, and the squat jump (SJ) and countermovement vertical jump (CMJ) tests were performed every morning when the games were held. The SJ presented a likely decrease when comparing before the second game to before the first game (0/34/66%) and before the fourth game to before the first game (2/20/78%), and a very likely decrease before the third game when compared to before the first game (0/3/97%). The CMJ showed a likely decrease before the second (0/19/81%), third (20/03/77%) and fourth game (01/10/89%) compared to before the first game. The physical recovery scale of the RESTQ-Sport was lower in the post-competition compared to pre-competition (p < 0.05) and the fatigue scale was greater in the post-competition compared to pre-competition (p < 0.05). The difference between the Σ recovery scales and the Σ stress scales in post-competition (7.5 ± 9.8) was lower when compared to the pre-competition (9.8 ± 9.1, p = 0.03). In summary, the decrease in vertical jump performance and deleterious changes in the RESTQ-Sport scales suggest a fatigue accumulation over consecutive days of futsal games.
