The main finding of the current study is that Speak but not VO2max correlates with Yo-Yo IR1 performance in a Brazilian professional futsal team. From a practical point of view, it would be suggested that both continuous and intermittent tests are necessary for a complete description of fitness status of elite futsal players. Additionally, when there is limited time for testing, a ramp test could be utilized as it provides VO2max and Speak, with the later being correlated with intermittent performance in the Yo-Yo IR1. More studies should be conducted for clarifying if these relationships between continuous and intermittent performances change over a whole season in teams of different competitions.
