Periodización con cargas selectivas atenúa desórdenes bioquímicos y mejora el desempeño físico en jugadoras de futsal femenino durante etapa competitiva

This study evaluated the effect of selective loads periodization on physical performance and biochemical parameters in professional female futsal players during competitive season. Twelve elite female futsal players from Kindermann team (Brazil) participated in the study. Variables of physical performance and erythrogram, leukogram, plasma cortisol, plasma immunoglobulin A (IgA) in the beginning of the preparatory period (PP), in the competitive period (CP) and in the final competitive period (FCP) were evaluated. Using selective loads periodization, all variables of physical performance increased (p < .01) during CP and were maintained during FCP (p < .05). White blood cells did not modify during CP and the increase of FCP in 28% remained within normal ranges. Plasma cortisol also increased during CP (p < .01) and was within the normal ranges during FCP. Plasma IgA also was within the normal ranges during CP and FCP. Selective loads periodization is adequate and attends the requirements of the sport during competitive season in female futsal players.
