abstract = {The training schedule is a factor that influences sports performance optimization. In a sport
like soccer, there is often significant disparity in training schedules among different teams within the
same club, without considering whether this may affect players’ performance. The aim of this study
was to describe differences in nutrient intake and body composition in elite youth soccer players
from the Spanish league with different training schedules (morning and evening). A cross-sectional
study was conducted to determine differences in anthropometric variables and dietary assessment
in a sample of Spanish young soccer players. A total of 41 players participated in this study. After
comparing the groups according to their training schedule, no differences were observed in body
composition between both groups; the evening-night training group showed higher consumption of
lipids and saturated fats. In summary, more experimental studies are needed to determine the effects
on various health and performance parameters of different training schedules in young population.},
