What are some good training methods for soccer without the ball?

Posted by The Soccer Blogger as Soccer Training & Skills

Just want to know what are good things to train that will help me with soccer. Like running and sit-ups. Thing that don't involve getting more technique with the ball but just getting physically ready to play, so training without the use of a soccer ball. Thanks for answering! (If you do!)

For soccer your training will deal how fast you are with and with out the ball. You would also need the ball to get more technique because repetition is important for most of the sports concept. Also running sprints(100 meters with a 30 second rest break in between and due 10 and then runn 200 meters with a minute break in between and do 10) long distance more than a mile but if you can't run a mile then runn 1/2 4 times with a 2 minute break in between, but if you can run past a mile run a mile with a 1 minute break 2 times. If you run with the ball when you do any of these you will become faster with the ball on you foot. You could hit the weight room and do about 50% of your max. Bench 8 to 12 reps 3 times with 30 rest perios. Squat 8 to 12 3 times and a 4th time till you ca't do any more. Leg press 8 to 12 3 times.(for the work out you should do upper body one day then lower body the next with a rest day after lower body) If you want to see the results you should eat right.

like you said yourself running, that in my opinion is THE best thing to get you ready for a match(without a ball) even instead of running go for jogs over long distances to build up stamina(that's what I do) and I think it's one of the most important things!
hope that helps(sorry if it doesn't) :o)

pretty much the obvious
you can do field suicides going to every line (6yd box,18yd box, etc.)
you can also do sets 3 full field sprints, 4 lengths each set, and try to make it under 15 seconds each time
another thing for fitness is to lie down on your back and raise your feet together six inches of the ground
also do push ups and stay down and hold it for about 30 seconds
timing your mile works to, you should aim for, at the most, six and a half minutes

Whilst fitness is one side of the answer to this question I think there is a more important side - how to practice what to do when your team doesn’t have the ball. After all your team probably doesn’t have the ball 50% of the time.
