RESISTANCE TRAINING PROGRAM
PURPOSE: Increase player’s injury resistance and resilience while increasing the player’s ability
to perform via development of athleticism and movement.
METHODOLOGY: Strength and flexibility will be developed in a coordinated manner via

emphasis of coordination, balance, core stability and ultimately soccer-specificity.
PRIMARY MOVEMENT COMPONENTS/COACHING POINTS:

 Standing movements: An athletic stance should be taken for all lifting movements. Bend
the knees slightly and drop back at the hips, keep the trunk upright and activate the
muscles of the core. As you perform the exercise think in terms of sinking your body into
the ground to create as stable of a position as possible; essentially ground yourself, so if
someone was going to come and try and push you over you could resist, i.e. hold a player
off while protecting the ball.
 Swiss Ball movements: A key factor in the movements incorporating the swiss ball is
stabilization of the hips. This is achieved both by activating the core and hip muscles
(gluteus maximus, and medius) to ensure that the hips do not rotate, or tilt but are in a
neutral position. In all of these movements keep the head in neutral as this affects the tilt
of the hips up and down. Any tilt that occurs side-to-side is likely the result of a lack of
activation, strength, or fatigue in the hip muscles.
 Core Stabilization: The muscles that play the largest part in stabilization of the back and
trunk are the deep muscle (tranvsverse abdominus), and lateral/oblique muscles. In the
vast majority of movements these muscles should be active.
 Squatting movements: All squat movements should be initiated by moving backwards at
the hips as if you were going to sit down in a chair. In response to this, the trunk will
move forward – this is expected, and ensures that the hip muscles and hamstrings are the
primary muscles involved in the movement.
 Foam roller: The goal of the roller is to release adhesions that occur between the muscle
and the over-lying fascia that occur. To effectively use the roller weight must be
controlled by the position of the body and directly by how much pressure you place on
the area that is in contact with the roller. The roller should be moved slowly over the
muscle being worked, such that when you feel a sensitive area you should hold on that
area. At the sensitive spot you should stop and hold until you feel a release in the amount
of pressure of the roller (aka: pain) then continue to move on.

Flexibility training:
 Foam roller should be performed a minimum of twice weekly following strength training, plus
one additional day during the week. As this will aid in recovery from matches it is advisable to
perform on the day following a match or even a difficult training session.
 Static flexibility should be performed following the foam roller work and target at least those
muscles stretched on the foam roller
 Dependent on the intensity of the session that day the time that a static stretch is held as well as
the number of repetitions will vary. Use the following guidelines to perform you static stretching:
o Post high-intensity: 3 sets of 5s static flexibility stretching for respective muscle groups.
o Post moderate-intensity: 2 sets of 15s static flexibility stretching for respective muscle
groups.
