Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change from baseline in Agility fatigue index
Agility fatigue index (FI) will be calculated from Repeat Agility Performance Test, using 'Brower equipment'. This assessment includes a 24 meter agility run, repeated on 6 occasions, with every sprint and recovery interval lasting for 65 seconds (eg. if the first agility effort takes the participant 5 seconds, they will have 55 seconds to return to start line for a 5 seconds countdown before their second agility effort). Agility FI=\[100X(total agility time÷ideal agility time)\]-100. Here, ideal agility time is the best agility time for each participant multiplied by number of repetitions
Baseline and 4h post-baseline
Secondary Outcomes (2)

Change from baseline in Mean power output
