Strength Training

By: Hans Hauiskaanto

For some reason the physical training in soccer is somewhat a myth. There are many soccer coaches, who do not understand even the basics of strength training, and that can be seen in the results.

In addition to the harm they do to their own careers they also ruin some young talented players. Who knows how many future stars have been destroyed by incorrect strength training methods. As far as I am concerned, too many.

To illustrate my point, lets take an example, how many times have you seen this: teen-aged soccer players lie on the training field and do some incorrect sit-ups and push-ups. All the players do the same number of sit-ups and push-ups, no matter what their physical condition is.

This article is divided into fours sections, one for each position on the field of play. This is because the strength training of goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and attackers should and must differ from each other.
