Application of Abdominal Core Resistance Training in Soccer Training

Abstract

Introduction: The abdominal center exercises are essential to ensure functional stability in soccer players, increasing the athlete's safety during rehabilitation. Objective: Verify the practical influence of abdominal core resistance training in the training of soccer players with a history of injuries. Methods: Eighteen athletes with recent sports injuries were selected for a controlled trial, randomly divided into two groups. The athletes underwent an FMS test before the beginning of the experiment. The experimental group underwent resistance training in addition to the usual procedures. The frequency of the intervention was twice weekly and the experiment lasted 12 weeks. All participants were tested and compared by the FMS test after the intervention. A combination of mathematics and statistics was the experiment’s effects of the experiment. Results: There was no significant difference in the measurement values of the seven basic tests in the soccer player groups (P>0.05). The fitness level of the experimental group was significantly improved after the abdominal core resistance exercise (P<0.05). Conclusion: Abdominal core stability training can effectively improve the physical fitness of soccer players, reducing the risk of injury.
