Sixteen female volleyball players undertook their initial, pre-season RT bout.Countermovement jump (CMJ), delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS), and sport-specificperformances (i.e., run-up jump, agility, and spiking speed and accuracy) were measured before,24 (T24), and 48 (T48) hours after RT. A significant increase in DOMS was observed at T24 and T48(~207.6% ± 119.3%; p < 0.05; ES = 1.8 (95% CI: 0.94–2.57)), whilst agility was significantly impaired atT48 (1.7% ± 2.5%; p < 0.05; ES = 0.30 (95% CI: −0.99–0.40)). However, there were no differences inCMJ (~−2.21% ± 7.6%; p > 0.05; ES = −0.11 (95% CI: −0.80–0.58)) and run-up jump (~−1.4% ± 4.7%;p > 0.05; ES = −0.07 (95% CI: −0.76–0.63)). Spiking speed was significantly reduced (−3.5% ± 4.4%;p < 0.05; ES = −0.28 (95% CI: −0.43–0.97)), although accuracy was improved (38.3% ± 81.4%: p < 0.05)at T48. Thus, the initial, preseason RT bout compromised agility and spiking speed for severaldays post-exercise. Conversely, spiking accuracy improved, suggesting a speed–accuracy trade-off.Nonetheless, at least a 48-h recovery may be necessary after the initial RT bout for athletes returningfrom the off-season or injury.
