ABSTRACT
Introduction:
The long distance running and the short distance running shot are common in soccer world, so that soccer presents a higher demand in relation to the strength of lower limbs and motor coordination by the athlete.
Objective:
Analyze the methods of training lower-limb strength and coordination in soccer.
Methods:
The experiment-by-control method was adopted. During the 12 weeks of training, the control group performed the traditional mode of lower limb strength training based on deep squat, while the experimental group adopted the global mode of lower limb strength training. The exercise training plans of the experimental group and control group were standardized.
Results:
The relative performance of the athletes in the experimental group and the control group was improved, however, the developmental effect of the experimental group was more significant.
Conclusion:
The comprehensive mode of lower limb strength training proposed in this study presents little difference in relation to the traditional mode of strength training in the optimization of maximum strength; however, it is more directed to soccer demand, and it can promote a better motor coordination to the athletes, besides optimizing the soccer sport level and making the athletes have more advantages in the field. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
