Integrated Power Training Mode in Soccer: Merging Complex Training with Cluster Set

Abstract

Power is one of the most important physical components to excel in modern soccer. Hence, finding the most efficient mode of power training is vital. This article aim is therefore, to propose an idea about a power training mode that might resulted with better power performance in soccer. Traditionally, resistance training and plyometrics will be the choice to be used by the trainers to improve power qualities. However, recent studies on power training had proven that complex training; a combination of resistance training and plyometrics, is a beneficial power training mode. In this article, discussion on power training modes is ultimately resumed by an unexplored research gap; cluster set (CS) application during a complex training. By utilizing the cluster set (CS) during a complex training, a better results of power training might occur.
