Negative Association of Free Testosterone With Jumping Performance in Elite Handball Players Following a Preparatory Period.","authors":"Kristina Drole, Primož Pori, Aleš Jerin, Aljaž Kren, Armin H Paravlic","doi":"10.1080/02701367.2024.2353715","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/02701367.2024.2353715","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p><b>Purpose:</b> The present study investigated the effects of a 10-week preparatory training period on biomarkers and jumping performance and associations of changes in biomarkers, load, and jumping performance from the beginning (PRE) to the end of the preparatory period (POST) in elite handball players. <b>Methods:</b> Seventeen elite handball players competing in the first Slovenian men's League were recruited. Training, competition and academic loads were reported weekly, while biomarkers and jumping performance were assessed at PRE and POST. <b>Results:</b> At POST, decreased levels of free testosterone (large effect size [ES] = -1.69, <i>p</i> < .001) and free testosterone to cortisol ratio [FTCR] (large ES = -.95, <i>p</i> = .004) were observed; whereas, better performance on the single leg lateral hop test [SLLH] (large ES = .85, <i>p</i> = .007) and single leg triple hop test [SLTH] (large ES = 1.05, <i>p</i> = .002) were observed compared to PRE. Furthermore, changes in FTCR correlated with changes in cortisol (high <i>r</i> = -.751, <i>p</i> = .001), SLLH (moderate <i>r</i> = -.603, <i>p</i> = .022), and SLTH (moderate <i>r</i> = -.643, <i>p</i> = .013), while changes in free testosterone correlated with SLTH (moderate <i>r</i> = -.645, <i>p</i> = .013). <b>Conclusions:</b> High intensity trainings with a saturated competition schedule can result in disturbed anabolic/catabolic hormone ratio observed through FTCR decrease, which could indicate either an optimal state or early exhaustiveness. It seems that SLLH and SLTH are more sensitive to changes in biomarkers than a single leg hop test. Sport professionals may use the results for individualized monitoring of an athlete's health and performance, specifically, as an aid for adjusting training loads accordingly to prevent performance declines and potential injury/illness events.</p>","PeriodicalId":94191,"journal":{"name":"Research quarterly for exercise and sport","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141474173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
