Endurance Training for Full-Game Performance

Football matches demand high levels of endurance, as players often run several kilometers during a game. Interval training is an excellent way to build stamina. Alternate between sprinting for 30 seconds and jogging for 90 seconds over 10-15 minutes. This mimics the alternating intensity of football gameplay.

Include longer runs, such as 5-10 kilometers at a steady pace, to build aerobic capacity. Combine these runs with exercises like shuttle sprints, which involve sprinting to different points on the field. Over time, increase the number of repetitions and reduce recovery times to push your limits.
