How many sprints should field sport athletes do per week?

📊 One recommendation comes from Malone et al. 2017 that showed a U shaped relationship with ~6-10 max velocity sprints per week reducing injury risk.

This is just one group of athletes and the top end is a trainable quality.

🏃🏽‍♂️ Well trained sprinters for example may be able to handle more volume per week.
