advising a football team or individual on fitness
Sara Lou-Ann Jones
It is important to take into consideration each individual’s
state of fitness. This can be done by assessing each
component, including maximum oxygen uptake, flexibility,
aerobic and anaerobic fitness.
The performance potential of a soccer player can be improved
by fitness training which is generally divided up into aerobic,
anaerobic and specific muscle training. Other factors that are
important to a player’s progress are his genetic background,
diet and mental fitness. Improvements in performance depend
upon the training methods used. Frequency, intensity,
progressive overload, type of exercise, specificity and
recovery all play a part in determining performance
