Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to identify distinct lactate kinetic phenotypes in professional soccer players using unsupervised machine learning and determine their relationship with maximal running velocity (Vmax) through explainable artificial intelligence methods. A total of 361 professional male soccer players from the First Division participated in the study. Incremental treadmill tests measured lactate concentrations at...
