| Sumario: | The aim of the study was to analyze variations in performance and subjective perception of well-being in young soccer players between menstrual (FM), follicular (FF) and luteal (FL) phases. Twelve female soccer players participated (16.18 ± 1.68 years; 164 ± 7.27 cm; 61.90 ± 6.37 kg) with 4 years of competitive experience and 3.1 ± 1 years with regular menstrual cycle. Maximum speed in 40-m, ability to change direction (25-m with 5 changes of direction of 45º every 5 m), explosive strength of the lower body with dominant, non-dominant, bipodal leg and vertical jump height were evaluated using Squat Jump into each phase, along with Hooper's subjective well-being questionnaire. No significant differences were obtained in any variable of performance or sleep, fatigue, stress and muscle pain between the phases of the menstrual cycle (p> 0.05). If a significantly worse general well-being state (p <0.01) in FM and FL with respect to FF. Knowing the subjective perception of well-being can be a tool that provides relevant information to the technical bodies of women's teams. |
