The purpose of this study was to compare the peak periods (1- to 6-minute epochs) for three different training methods (game-based training - GBT; small-sided games - SSG; and conditioning training - CT) in elite male rugby union (RU) players. The peak movement (m·min) and impact (impact·min) characteristics of 42 players during in-season training were assessed. When comparing between training methods, SSG drills produced the greatest peak movement characteristics for all time epochs (1-minute average peak periods - SSG 195 m·min, GBT 160 m·min, and CT 144 m·min). The peak impact characteristics performed during training were 1-2 impact·min for a 1-minute period and then decreased as the time period increased for all training methods. The greatest distribution of training time occurred at 30-39% (SSG and CT) and 40-49% (GBT) of peak movement intensity, with less than 5% of training performed at or above 80% peak intensity across all drill types. Findings from the current study show that the peak movement periods (m·min) in RU training from all three training methods match or exceed those which are previously reported in peak gameplay, yet their ability to replicate peak impact characteristics is questionable.
本研究的目的是比较精英男子橄榄球联盟（RU）球员中三种不同训练方法（基于游戏的训练 - GBT；小型比赛 - SSG；以及体能训练 - CT）的高峰期（1至6分钟时段）。评估了42名球员在赛季内训练期间的峰值运动（米·分钟）和冲击（冲击·分钟）特征。在比较训练方法时，SSG训练在所有时段都产生了最大的峰值运动特征（1分钟平均高峰期 - SSG为195米·分钟，GBT为160米·分钟，CT为144米·分钟）。训练期间的峰值冲击特征在1分钟时段为1 - 2次冲击·分钟，然后随着时段增加，所有训练方法的该特征均下降。训练时间的最大分布出现在峰值运动强度的30 - 39%（SSG和CT）以及40 - 49%（GBT），所有训练类型中，在峰值强度80%及以上进行的训练占比不到5%。当前研究的结果表明，所有三种训练方法在RU训练中的峰值运动时段（米·分钟）与之前报道的峰值比赛时段相当或超过该时段，但其复制峰值冲击特征的能力值得怀疑。
