Summary

The aim of the present study was to compare the effects of six weeks of velocity-based (VBT) and traditional percentage-based (TRD) strength training on 20m sprint, vertical jump, and aerobic capacity in elite young football players. The main questios it aims to answer is: Does VBT have higher positive effects than TRD on the above-mentioned markers.

Researchers compared VBT to TRD to see if VBT works to enhannce better 20m sprint, vertical jump, and aerobic capacity in elite young football players.

Participants:

* Performed VBT used squat training or VBT used squat plus bench press training or TRD used squat training
* Take VBTs or TRD 3day/week for 6 weeks Visit the lab for measurements annd tests bbbefore annd after 6 weeks trainninng programme
