ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Clarke, R, Read, PJ, De Ste Croix, MBA, and Hughes, JD. The deceleration deficit a novel field-based method to quantify deceleration during change of direction performance. J Strength Cond Res 36(9) 2434-2439, 2022-The study investigated the relationship between linear and change of direction (COD) speed performance components and the individual differences between deceleration deficit (DD) and COD deficit (CODD). Thirty-six subjects (mean ± SD age = 20.3 ± 2.9 years; stature = 175.2 ± 7.7 cm; and body mass = 78.0 ± 16.7 kg) completed 3 trials of a 505 test in both turning directions (dominant [D]; nondominant [ND]) and 3 15-m linear sprints. Deceleration deficit was calculated by the 15-m approach in the 505 test, minus the athlete's linear 15-m sprint time. To compare individuals CODD and DD, z-scores were calculated, and moderate worthwhile changes (MWCs) were identified between these deficit z-scores. Significant correlations were identified between linear sprints and 505 time (D r = 0.71, 0.74; P < 0.01. ND r = 0.76, 0.75; P < 0.01) for 10-m and 15-m sprint. respectively, and between 505 performance and CODD (D r = 0.74; P < 0.01. ND r = 0.77; P < 0.01) and DD (D r = 0.41, P < 0.05. ND r = 0.44, P < 0.01). Deceleration deficit was significantly related to CODD (D r = 0.59; P < 0.01. ND r = 0.62; P < 0.01); however, 78% of subjects demonstrated differences between these deficit measures greater than an MWC. In conclusion, linear speed has the strongest significant relationship with 505 performance. Deceleration deficit could provide a more isolated construct than CODD which may be related to an athlete's deceleration capabilities.
