| Popis | This pilot study aimed to describe the possible e ect of the menstrual cycle phase on perceptual responses to recovery, wellbeing and motivation in Brazilian Football 7 players. Data from sixteen female players (age: 30.19 ± 5.11 yrs) belonging to the same team were collected three months before each match. Perceive of recovery was collected by the Total Recovery Quality scale; wellbeing by the 5-point Likert scale on the domain of fatigue, sleep, soreness, stress and mood; and motivation to compete by a 7-point Likert scale. The menstrual cycle phase was self-determined by the menstruation, day 7, day 14, or day 21 after the menstruation. Data were grouped according to the phases and compared by the Friedman test, with a signi cance set of p<0.05. Players did not signi cantly di er in their perception of recovery, wellbeing domains and motivation to compete across the menstrual cycle phases (p> 0.05). However, speci cally, a signi cant impairment in perception of soreness at day 7 (p=0.013) and stress on menstruation (p=0.028) compared to day 21 were found. Therefore, it appears that female players in this cohort maintain relatively consistent perceptions of recovery, wellbeing and motivation throughout their menstrual cycles. However, further investigation with long-term monitoring is necessary to con rm these ndings de nitively and explore potential individual di erences in response to menstrual cycle variations in the Football 7 players. |
