4 workouts to level up your soccer training plan

To reach for the big kicks in soccer, it’s super important that your hip flexors are strong and mobile, and your glutes have the power to follow through.

This workout with Centr expert Sylvia Roberts will help you target those muscles, and build functional strength. Pilates in general is a great addition to your routine for mobility, precision and maintaining an injury-free body.

Surging down the field, kicking (or saving) a penalty, making a challenge for the ball – it all requires serious propulsive power from your glutes.

Grab your dumbbells to zoom in on your lower body with Ingrid Clay’s targeted strength moves. She’s also invited some guest trainers so you can dial down or up the difficulty.

Quick direction changes and powerful defense require a strong center of gravity. Hit the mat with Maricris Lapaix to build up your stability and balance – so the next time an opponent attempts to steal the ball, there’s no way they’ll be breaking through your rock-solid wall.

Soccer demands staying power. The average professional will run 7-10 miles in a game, so having solid breathing techniques in your arsenal could definitely give your performance a boost.

Tahl’s hybrid yoga style (which also incorporates functional, strength and cardio work) will amp up your breathing power and flexibility. If you’re new to yoga, follow the modifications and give the mindfulness practice at the end a go – so you can bring your mental best to the pitch, too.
