Analysis and physiological measurements have revealed that modern football is highly energetically demanding, and the ability to perform repeated high-intensity work is of importance for the players. Furthermore, the most successful teams perform more high-intensity activities during a game when in possession of the ball. Hence, footballers need a high fitness level to cope with the physical demands of the game. Studies on football players have shown that 8 to 12 wk of aerobic high-intensity running training (&gt; 85% HR<sub>max<\/sub>) leads to VO<sub>2max<\/sub> enhancement (5% to 11%), increased running economy (3% to 7%), and lower blood lactate accumulation during submaximal exercise, as well as improvements in the yo-yo intermittent recovery (YYIR) test performance (13%). Similar adaptations are observed when performing aerobic high-intensity training with small-sided games. Speed-endurance training has a positive effect on football-specific endurance, as shown by the marked improvements in the YYIR test (22% to 28%) and the ability to perform repeated sprints (approximately 2%). In conclusion, both aerobic and speed-endurance training can be used during the season to improve high-intensity intermittent exercise performance. The type and amount of training should be game related and specific to the technical, tactical, and physical demands imposed on each player.<\/p>\n<p>Int J Sports Physiol Perform. 2009 Sep;4(3):291-306.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-label\">PMID:\u00a0<\/span><strong class=\"current-id\" title=\"PubMed ID\">19953818\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"id-label\">DOI: <\/span><a class=\"id-link\" href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1123\/ijspp.4.3.291\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-ga-category=\"full_text\" data-ga-action=\"DOI\">10.1123\/ijspp.4.3.291<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8696,"template":"","categories":[858,863,864],"tags":[197],"class_list":["post-2697","attivita-scientifica","type-attivita-scientifica","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-calcio-en","category-soccer-3-en","category-training-en","tag-ermanno-rampinini-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
