The aim of the present study was to examine the validity and reliability of a 10 × (6 × 5 m) multi-directional repeated sprint ability test (RSM) in elite young team handball (TH) players. Participants were members of the Iranian national team ( = 20, age 16.4 ± 0.7 years, weight 82.5 ± 5.5 kg, height 184.8 ± 4.6 cm, body fat 15.4 ± 4.3%). The validity of RSM was tested against a 10 × (15 + 15 m) repeated sprint ability test (RSA), Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery test Level 1 (Yo-Yo IR1), squat jump (SJ) and countermovement jump (CMJ). To test the reliability of RSM, the participants repeated the testing sessions of RSM and RSA 1 week later. Both RSA and RSM tests showed good to excellent reliability of the total time (TT), best time (BT), and weakest time (WT). The results of the correlation analysis showed significant inverse correlations between maximum aerobic capacity and TT in RSA ( = -0.57, ≤ 0.05) and RSM ( = -0.76, ≤ 0.01). There was also a significant inverse correlation between maximum aerobic capacity with fatigue index (FI) in RSA test ( = -0.64, ≤ 0.01) and in RSM test ( = -0.53, ≤ 0.05). BT, WT, and TT of RSA was largely-to-very largely correlated with BT ( = 0.58, ≤ 0.01), WT ( = 0.62, ≤ 0.01), and TT ( = .65, ≤ 0.01) of RSM. BT in RSM was also correlated with FI in RSM ( = 0.88, ≤ 0.01). In conclusion, based on the findings of the current study, the recently developed RSM test is a valid and reliable test and should be utilized for assessment of repeated sprint ability in handball players.
本研究的目的是检验一项10×(6×5米)多向重复冲刺能力测试(RSM)在精英青年男子手球(TH)运动员中的有效性和可靠性。参与者为伊朗国家队队员(n = 20，年龄16.4±0.7岁，体重82.5±5.5千克，身高184.8±4.6厘米，体脂15.4±4.3%)。RSM的有效性通过与一项10×(15 + 15米)重复冲刺能力测试(RSA)、Yo-Yo间歇恢复测试1级(Yo-Yo IR1)、深蹲跳(SJ)和纵跳(CMJ)进行对比来检验。为了测试RSM的可靠性，参与者在1周后重复了RSM和RSA的测试环节。RSA和RSM测试在总时间(TT)、最佳时间(BT)和最差时间(WT)方面均显示出良好到优秀的可靠性。相关分析结果显示，最大有氧能力与RSA中的TT(r = -0.57，P≤0.05)和RSM中的TT(r = -0.76，P≤0.01)之间存在显著负相关。在RSA测试(r = -0.64，P≤0.01)和RSM测试(r = -0.53，P≤0.05)中，最大有氧能力与疲劳指数(FI)之间也存在显著负相关。RSA的BT、WT和TT与RSM的BT(r = 0.58，P≤0.01)、WT(r = 0.62，P≤0.01)和TT(r = 0.65，P≤0.01)在很大程度上至非常大程度上相关。RSM中的BT也与RSM中的FI相关(r = 0.88，P≤0.01)。总之，基于本研究的结果，最近开发的RSM测试是一项有效且可靠的测试，应用于评估手球运动员的重复冲刺能力。
