• Objective quantification of fatigue, along with subjective measures (i.e. perceptual) can provide helpful information on the readiness of athletes to practice, which is crucial to stabilize and/or improve performance. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship of objective and subjective measures of fatigue and training exertion in talented young basketball players. The results showed a significantly large relation between PRS and jump height (r =0.56; p <.001), peak velocity (r = 0.52; p <.001), flight time (r = 0.57; p <.001) and contraction time (r = 0.54; p <.001). In addition, the RPE and jump height (r = -0.70; p <.001) and peak velocity (r = -0.66; p <.001) were large and significantly correlated. Additionally, flight time (r = -0.71; p <.001) and RPE were very large and significantly correlated. The CMJ-derived variables, in particular the jump height, could be used to easily assess training demands and recovery, without athletes' subjective measures. Athletes may use this information to adjust training design, according to players' response.
