This research compared the physical and heart rate demands of three medium-sided games with the same number of players per team (six) but different playing areas throughout four successive working periods. The two games played in relatively larger areas (large and medium) were performed with regular goals and goalkeepers, so the most reduced game (short) was performed without goals. Nine professional soccer players participated in this study. Meaningful differences were found (p<0.05) on the physical demand s in the three proposals, with higher values for the games performed on larger areas: maximum speed: 22.8±2.4, 19.8±2.3, and 17.6±1.8 Km/h; and distance covered/min: 120.5±13.4, 103.4±11.2, and 93.8±11.6 m/min in large, medium and short game respectively. There were no differences on the heart rate responses among them. When the physical demands were analysed during the four working periods, the differences could only be seen in large game (p<0.05). The first periods in this proposal showed higher values in distance covered/min, maximum speed, and distance/h in the speed zones 7.0-12.9, 13.0-17.9, and 18.0-20.9 Km/h, and lower values in the zones 0-6.9 Km/h, demonstrating, throughout the periods, the tendency to reduce the distance at high speed and to increase the distance at lower speed. These changes in the activity patterns, related to the period of exercising, could depend on the dimensions of the playing field, thus showing (2017). Medium-sided games in soccer: physical and heart rate demands throughout successive working periods.
ResumA causa de la durada i els esforços requerits durant un partit de futbol, la millora de la resistència ha d'ocupar un lloc important en les planificacions que dissenyin els entrenadors i preparadors físics. El desenvolupament de dos paràmetres fisiològics sembla important a l'hora d'aconseguir aquestes millores: el consum màxim d'oxigen i el llindar anaeròbic. L'objectiu d'aquest treball és analitzar els diferents mètodes d'entrenament per a la resistència en el futbol que han demostrat la seva validesa, entre els quals es poden destacar l'entrenament intervàlic d'alta intensitat, les situacions reduïdes de joc, l'entrenament d'esprints repetits i l'entrenament continu. La utilització d'aquests mètodes al llarg de la temporada s'ha de basar en la valoració dels nivells de resistència dels jugadors, la qual cosa orientarà les possibles estratègies en la planificació, amb l'objectiu d'optimitzar el rendiment dels futbolistes.Paraules clau: futbol, entrenament resistència, entrenament intervàlic d'alta intensitat, situacions reduïdes de joc, entrenament d'esprints repetits Abstract Considerations for Improving Endurance in FootballDue to the length of football matches and the effort required when playing in them, improving endurance should occupy an important place in the planning drawn up by coaches and trainers. The development of two physiological parameters seems important in achieving these improvements: maximal oxygen uptake and the anaerobic threshold. The aim of this paper is to analyse the various methods of endurance training in football that have proved their worth and which include high intensity interval training, small game situations, repeated sprint training and continuous training. Use of these methods during the course of the season should be based on the assessment of the players' endurance levels, which in turn will guide possible planning strategies in order to optimise the players' performance.
The main aim of this study was to compare the high-speed training session (TRs) and competitive match (OMs) demands induced on professional soccer players across an in-season microcycle. Maximum velocity (MV) and the number of actions and distance performed at high (N-HV > 14.4 km•h -1 ), very high velocity (N-VHV > 19.8 km•h -1 ) and sprint (N-SP > 25.2 km•h -1 ), in different distance zones (0-5, 5-15, 15-30, >30 m) were evaluated. Twelve professional soccer players competing within the Spanish 1 st Division were the participants of the study. TRs were categorised according to days leading to the match day (MD-5, MD-4, MD-3, MD-1). The results showed significant differences between OMs and TRs across all analysed variables, except for N-HV, N-VHV, and N-SP 15-30m in the comparisons between OMs and MD-4. In addition, N-SP 15-30 m in MD-4 and MD-3 were significantly higher than in MD-1 (ES = 0.87 and 0.80, respectively) without differences in MV highlighting a tapering strategy. To conclude, the current investigation revealed a potential tapering strategy in professional soccer in conjunction to highlighting a way of maintaining MV and high speed actions across low-distance ranges (<15 m). Therefore, it would be necessary to further induce task with high-velocity actions in high-distance ranges (>30 m) across the TRs in order to replicate the velocity peaks occurred in OMs.
Resumen Debido a la duración y los esfuerzos requeridos durante un partido de fútbol, la mejora de la resistencia debe ocupar un lugar importante en las planificaciones que diseñen los entrenadores y preparadores físicos. El desarrollo de dos parámetros fisiológicos parece importante a la hora de conseguir estas mejoras: el consumo máximo de oxígeno y el umbral anaeróbico. El objetivo de este trabajo es el de analizar los diferentes métodos de entrenamiento para la resistencia en el fútbol que han demostrado su validez, entre los cuales se pueden destacar el entrenamiento interválico de alta intensidad, las situaciones reducidas de juego, el entrenamiento de sprints repetidos y el entrenamiento continuo. La utilización de estos métodos a lo largo de la temporada, se debe basar en la valoración de los niveles de resistencia de los jugadores, lo cual orientará las posibles estrategias en la planificación, con el objetivo de optimizar el rendimiento de los futbolistas. Palabras clave: fútbol, entrenamiento resistencia, entrenamiento interválico de alta intensidad, situaciones reducidas de juego, entrenamiento de sprints repetidos
The aim of the current research was to find out the differences that exist between the external load in high-velocity actions (SP+) in competitions and in training sessions of professional soccer team. We took as SP+ indicators those actions that the soccer players performed over 23 km·h-1 and could be held for at least 1 second. It was monitored 25 professional players belonging to the first team of a team of the first Spanish soccer division, and were used 10 GPS devices were used (SPI, ELITE model, GPSport, Canberra, Australia). These GSPORT transmitters have a sampling frequency of 1 Hz. The results of our study showed how during the game, the players performed substantially more number of SP+ de 1 s, 2 s, 3 s y 4 s (per minute of activity) than during training.Resumen.
