... side soccer game indicate moderate to high intensities, intermittently high anaerobic responses and reduction of muscle glycogen stores towards the end of the game. Reilly T (1995) This study recognised the intensity of 5 a side football, based using a benchmark of muscle glycogen stores, which were severely depleted at the end of the study games. These are the kind of physiological intensities which the average recreationally active subject would find challenging. McInnes, Carlson, Jones and McKenna (1995) In this study, the intensities of activity and movement patterns during men's basketball were investigated by videoing the movements and monitoring the heart rate and blood lactate response of eight elite players during competition. It concluded that the physiological requirements of men's basketball are high, placing considerable demands on the cardiovascular and metabolic capacities of players. Reilly T (1997) This study concluded that When heart rate and work-rate are related to oxygen ...
