The female athlete triad exists in both elite athletes and controls

Article Abstract:

The prevalence of the female athlete triad, the Triad in Norwegian elite athletes and controls is examined. The results support the assumption that a significant proportion of female athletes suffer from the components of the Triad thus suggesting that prevention of one or more of the Triad components should be geared towards all physically active girls and young women.

The impact of rest duration on work intensity and RPE during interval training

Article Abstract:

The effect of rest duration on self-selected intensity, physiological responses, and RPE during a standardized, high-intensity interval training prescription is investigated. Under self-paced conditions, varying rest duration in a range of 1 to 4 min had limited impact on performance during repeated 4-min high-intensity exercise bouts.
