To optimise performance you need the correct balance between training load and recovery. An imbalance can increase the risk of injury, illness and underperformance, this is why monitoring markers are essential. My PhD research was to investigate the association between training load, monitoring markers of recovery, injuries and illness, in elite team sports.
Caoimhe Tiernan, Physical Education and Sport Sciences, University of Limerick, delivers their 'Thesis in 3' presentation on "Investigation of the relationship between training load, monitoring markers of recovery, injuries and illness, in elite team sports".
About Thesis in Three:
18 finalists were selected from Faculty heats that were held with students from University of Limerick, Mary Immaculate College and Limerick Institute of Technology who are members of the Federated Limerick Graduate School (FLGS). These Masters and Doctoral research students are challenged to present their research in three minutes, using 3 slides, to a non-specialist audience. Entrants must refine their niche subjects and in-depth research into bite-sized presentations that will engage and inform their fellow students, the wider UL community and the general public.
