A soccer fitness program should be built around developing a good aerobic base. Several studies into the physiological demands of soccer have shown that outfield players can travel up to 13 km or 8 miles during a 90-minute game. This places a significant demand on the athlete’s cardiovascular system and muscular endurance. Having said that, I believe this is one aspect of training that is already over-emphasized in this sport. Soccer Kids can practice goalie shots, curve shots and all types of soccer kicks, and since the soccer ball is super lightweight and bouncy, you can practice series of repetitions without ever losing the ball. If your child plays youth soccer, it’s a great way to practice in between games. Last 10 posts by admin
