Nevertheless, to the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to compare training load in different youth sport disciplines using the same methodology. Overall, athletes engaged in racket sports reported the highest volume and the highest intensity, while those engaged in team sports exhibit the lowest weekly load. Additionally, subjective intensity and training load increased progressively with age (Table 1). However, no difference was found when comparing young male and
female athletes, demonstrating similar training load exposure for a given age and sport category. This observation is in accordance with previous work comparing training volume in girls and boys.
