SoccerX is an 8-week off-season program designed to give soccer players the X-factor—that extra edge that sets them apart on the field. With a dynamic, results-driven approach, SoccerX focuses on all aspects of performance training to elevate athletes to the next level.
This program includes 4 weight room sessions per week—2 focused on upper body strength and 2 on lower body strength. In addition, athletes will complete 3-4 conditioning sessions per week, with a focus on building a strong aerobic base. The program also prepares athletes for the YoYo IRTL1, one of the most widely used fitness tests in soccer, ensuring they’re ready for the demands of the game.
