Abstract

During the transition period, some coaches are content only to give verbal instructions encouraging the players to do sporting activities or, sometimes, to ask them to carry out voluntary training, often unplanned, in order to avoid a drop in their condition physical. However, a total cessation or virtual absence of training stimuli could have negative repercussions on the physical condition of players and the performance forged by training (Mujika and Padilla, 2000) (Koundourakis & al., 2014) . Indeed, several studies have concluded that a period of cessation, as well as a reduction in training frequencies cause alterations in body composition and physiological functions, which can lead to a partial or total loss of certain adaptations induced by training (Buchheit & al., 2015; Stergios & al., 2018) The aim of this study is to examine the effect of a running program, carried out through the POLAR system, on the body composition of affected soccer players during the transition period.
