Workload monitoring: why you cannot consider HSR as the only measure of high intensity
High-speed is widely used in team sports to assess the so-called high intensity. For a decade, lots of papers have been written on this topic, but the goal of researchers has changed over time. Let's start from the very beginning and follow the chronological sequence....
The limits of acceleration
introduction. I have covered less distance but the number of my accelerations is greater!” - this could be the comment from the majority of players while looking at the performance report after a training session or a match... and often the same would be the view of...

Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio – Part 2
Although the injury is a complex and multifactorial phenomenon, numerous studies highlighted how less than optimal workload management represents one of the biggest injury risk factors. Therefore, the possibility of excluding one of these factors is an opportunity...
Usque ad veritatem
Prof. PE di Prampero's answer to Martin Buchheit publication. I read recently the short note by Martin Buchheit (Buchheit, 2020) wherein he recalls the first occasion in which we met personally in Clairefontaine (France), at a meeting organised by the “Institut de...
Players’ profiling: the Metabolic Power profile
Test your players without testing them. How to obtain an individual metabolic power profile (MPP) by considering a specific time period of normal training? Metabolic Power Profile In last month's gpexe webinar, Dr J Cassirame, C. Osgnach and Prof PE di Prampero...
The in-situ sprint profile for team sports.
Test your players without testing them. How to obtain an individual sprint acceleration mechanical profile conceptually equivalent to our “classic” F-V profile without running a specific test? Acceleration Speed Profile In last Monday's gpexe webinar, Prof....
Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio – Part 1
The ideal training stimulus maximises performance and simultaneously reduces the negative consequences of the training, i.e. the onset of fatigue and the risk of injury. The ratio between the workload carried out during the last week ("acute workload") and the average...
Power events: from theory to practice
Obtaining more powerful and prolonged high-intensity actions through the increase in the duration of the recovery phases, better if during the possession phase. This is the main goal in Empoli FC's work philosophy. The Fitness Coach Rocco Perrotta, with previous...
#gpexePeople – An interview with Prof. Paolo Barbero
Hellas Verona, promoted to Serie A at the end of last year and performing very well so far this season, is a gpexe customer from summer 2019. Prof. Paolo Barbero, fitness coach and a veteran gpexe user, explains why the gpexe system has been chosen by his new club....
