Implication

Methodological analysis reveals laboratory and field performance estimates fail to translate to elite athletes, highlighting the need for improved competitive event research designs.

Key Points

To evaluate the validity and applicability of standard sport performance enhancement research designs when translating laboratory and field findings to elite competitive contexts.
Assessed methodological frameworks and performance outcome measures used across sport science studies.
Compared performance enhancement estimates obtained in controlled laboratory and field settings against real-world competitive performance.
Prior performance enhancement estimates generated in laboratory or field settings do not reliably generalize to elite athletes during competitive events.
Traditional testing paradigms exhibit limited ecological validity for modeling competitive sports outcomes.
