Abstract
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the utility of a submaximal running test (SRT) for monitoring neuromuscular fatigue (NMF). A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to understand the effects of fatigue on the running profile of elite team sport athletes. An intervention study then showed that in the presence of NMF, players utilised an alternate running profile during the SRT to produce the same external output. A comparison study followed and revealed the SRT might offer to be a more sensitive monitoring tool than a counter movement jump test, due to its greater ability for detecting practically important changes in performance.
