Abstract:
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the Aerobic endurance training as
indicators of physiological training status among male soccer players. A total of 138 well-trained first
division soccer players under 18 years were tested. Testing was based on the Cooper test as a one of
simple tests to estimate VO2max. BMI and BFP as valued anthropometric measurements to control
body change relative to maximal oxygen consumption during dynamic exercise with large muscle
groups benefit training time soccer training experience. Performance in this experience was based on
the subjection that 60 ml/kg/min of VO2max is the minimum fitness requirement for male soccer
players to play at the elite level. Admit in this study as a protocol to categorise our sample into two
groups (up and under the range VO2max ± 60 ml/kg/min) and it was based on statistics applied and the
design used. Our results highlighted the importance of aerobic performance up to 60 ml/kg/min as the
minimum fitness requirement to enhance the players' aerobic capacity allied to maximal heart rate
relative to BFP levels as a better parameter in comparison with BMI for the prediction of low VO2max
concomitant to the physiological training status as requests soccer performance demand.
