SUPERISOMETRIC AQUATIC TRAINING IN THE PHYSICAL PREPARATION OF SOCCER PLAYERS

TREINAMENTO AQUÁTICO SUPERISOMÉTRICO NO PREPARO FÍSICO DE FUTEBOLISTAS

ENTRENAMIENTO ACUÁTICO SUPERISOMÉTRICO EN LA PREPARACIÓN FÍSICA DE FUTBOLISTAS

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

With the growing importance of physical training over sport training for competition, more research has been conducted. One of the least explored techniques is superisometric aquatic training.

Objective:

Study the application of super-isometric aquatic training to the physical training of soccer athletes.

Methods:

A literature review was performed to elaborate an experimental protocol. The experimental method was conducted on 24 university volunteers randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Classical training was conducted for two weeks between the groups, superisometric aquatic training was added only in the experimental group. Through the mathematical-statistical method, a comparative analysis of the research results was elaborated, and the effects of the intervention were discussed.

Results:

The movement time of the athletes in the experimental training group was reduced by 1.89s. The performance of running, tapping, standing jump, and weightlifting tests is not significantly different from those of the traditional strength training group.

Conclusion:

The application of superisometric aquatic training in the physical preparation of soccer players increased the overall strength of athletes,and also beneficially influenced specific activities of the sport. It is recommended to analyze the characteristics of the athlete and integrate superisometric training to general strength traispecificcally to the need of each athlete. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
