Differences in physical fitness among indoor and outdoor elite male soccer players

Abstract: This study compared anthropometric (body height, body mass, percent body fat, fat-free body mass) and physical fitness characteristics (vertical jump height, power-load curve of the leg, 5 and 15 m sprint running time and blood lactate concentrations ([La](b)) at submaximal running velocities) among 15 elite male indoor soccer (IS) and 25 elite male outdoor soccer (OS) players. IS players had similar values in body height, body mass, fat-free body mass and endurance running than OS players. However, the IS gro… Show more

“…However, as in our study, the width of the knee (femur breadth) was found to be at a higher in soccer players. In turn, the present results on adiposity levels were confirmed in a study on Spanish indoor and outdoor soccer players, where the outdoor players had statistically significantly higher levels of body fat [23].…”

“…Short sprints (< 20 m) are the most common actions performed by soccer players during a game 14 , which are associated with countermovement jump (CMJ) performance 15 . This suggests that the performance in high-intensity exercises depends on the level of muscle power, i.e., the ability of neural recruitment, utilization of the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC), and the rate of anaerobic energy release 16 .…”

“…Entretanto, existem algumas pequenas diferenças tanto em relação as restrições ambientais quanto da própria tarefa entre estes dois jogos esportivos coletivos que podem potencialmente infl uenciar o padrão de movimento neste elemento técnico de jogo. O futsal apresenta menor número de jogadores em quadra, dimensões da área de jogo e tempo total de jogo 18 , além das diferenças em relação a superfície em que é praticado (piso rígido), menor tamanho e peso da bola e menor tamanho do alvo (gol) 19 e o tipo de calçado utilizado. Em um jogo de futsal, os jogadores executam em média 11,7 ± 4,13 chutes no gol e 15,2 ± 3,43 chutes para fora do gol 20 enquanto que no futebol os jogadores executam um número menor, entre 1,2 e 2,5 ± 2,2 chutes 21 no total.…”
