Abstract

The aim of the current study was to investigate and compare coaches' and players' perceptions of training dose for a full competitive season. Methods: Session rating of perceived exertion (RPE), duration, and training load (session RPE x duration) of 33 professional soccer players (height 178.2 +/- 6.6 cm, weight 70.5 +/- 6.4 kg, percentage body fat 12.2 +/- 1.6) from an under-19 and under-17 (U17) squad were compared with the planned periodization of their professional coaches. Before training, coaches filled in the session rating of intended exertion (RIE) and duration (min) for each player. Players rated session RPE and training duration after each training session. Results: Players perceived their intensity and training load (2446 sessions in total) as significantly harder than what was intended by their coaches (P
