Conditioning through load management during prolonged inactivity and resumption of activity

Abstract

When resuming sports activities after a prolonged period of inactivity, injury risk is a concern due to a sudden increase in workload. Research on load management during sports activities has developed at an accelerated rate in recent years, and the relationship with injury risk is being recognized. This paper outlines the measurement methods of various load data, mainly session RPE, and then discusses how to process and interpret the data from the perspective of injury prevention.
