Session-RPE may support practical training load monitoring in athletes; observational correlations leave open prospective validation against performance and injury outcomes.
The session-RPE method provides reasonably accurate assessments of training load compared with heart-rate-based methods, though accuracy deviates when proportionally more time is spent at low or high intensity.
Borresen et al. (2008) studied this question.
