DEVELOPMENT OF
ENDURANCE FOR
FOOTBALL PLAYERS
ENDURANCE AIM
1. To produce higher oxygen debt capacity
2. To produce lower resting pulse rate
If load is increased, performed, performance level increases too.
‘known as progressive loading’
•ENDURANCE – The ability to withstand the onset of fatigue. The
capacity of the body to meet the demand placed on it by
competition.
The effect of training is directly related to the duration and
intensity of the training load
Aerobic Endurance
1. Definition Aptitude to do an extended effort at an
average intensity
- Basic Aerobic Endurance
- Aerobic Endurance ‘Capacity’
- Aerobic Endurance ‘Power’
>The oxygen transport system is set in motion.
1.1 Basic aerobic Endurance
Heart rate or pulsation 120-140 beats per minutes
50-60% VO2(maximum possibility)
1.2 Aerobic Endurance ‘Capacity’
Heart rate of pulsation 140-170 bpm
70-80% VO2
1.3 Aerobic Endurance ‘Power’ or High Intensity
Heart rate or pulsation 180 bpm
80-100% VO2
2. Basic Aerobic Endurance
3. Aerobic Endurance Capacity
4. Aerobic Endurance Power.(High Intensity)
During aerobic training the lactic producing energy
system may also be highly stimulated for short periods of
time which means the training overlaps anaerobic speed
endurance training.
Anaerobic Endurance
1. Generalities
No oxygen is required
Lactic acid is produced
2. Development of anaerobic endurance
interval training
3. Effort during training
To increase the anaerobic endurance
To multiply the efforts
Application to football
The higher the level of football, the more high speed
running is performed.
This can be achieved through speed endurance training.
Principles
Speed endurance training can be divided into production
training and maintenance training. The purpose of
production training is to improve the ability to perform
maximally for a relatively short period of time, whereas the
aim of maintenance training is to increase the ability to
sustain exercise at a high intensity.
The exercise intensity during speed endurance training should be
almost maximal
In the production training the duration of the exercise bouts should be
relatively short(20-40sec) and the rest periods between the exercise
bouts should be comparatively long(2-4min)
In the maintenance training the exercise periods should be 30-
120 seconds and the duration of the rest periods should
approximately equal the exercise period.
If the exercise periods during speed endurance training last for 1
minute or more the heart rate measurement may be used
.
The heart rate should be close to maximum.
STRENGTH ENDURANCE
Is training to develop an athletes to apply force in the clim
ate of lactic anaerobiosis.
“Quality” demands are replaced by the task of completing
a training unit.
However, these sessions help the athlete to keep going w
hen lactate is high.
Power endurance
Players cover approximately 3000yds at speed in a game.
This is anaerobic running.
60% of the running(1800yds) covers distance of up to
25yds…activities of a power endurance nature should be
of 5-25yds.
PLAYERS WITH HIGH VALUES OF MUSCULAR
STRENGTH TEND TO ENDURE RIGOURS OF A HARD-
COMPETITIVE SEASON BETTER THAN WEAKER
COUNTERPARTS.
WHERE EXCESSIVELY HARD-TRAINING IS COMBINED
WITH FREQUENT MATCH PLAY OVER A SUSTAINED
PERIOD, THEN OVER-TRAINING IS A RISK.
