Exploring the utility of the 3-minute all-out running test in assessing match performance and external loads in university soccer players

The 3MT proved to be a valuable tool for evaluating individual physiological conditioning while also mapping on to key match performance metrics and external loads in university soccer players. The association with key performance indicators such as high-speed running capacity and sustained effort highlights its potential for optimizing training strategies.

Abstract

The 3MT proved to be a valuable tool for evaluating individual physiological conditioning while also mapping on to key match performance metrics and external loads in university soccer players. The association with key performance indicators such as high-speed running capacity and sustained effort highlights its potential for optimizing training strategies.
