038 - Preseason conditioning shouldn’t just build lungs, it should build resilience! This RCT compared two 10-week programs in elite U19 female soccer players: → Neuromuscular Training (NMT) → Endurance Conditioning (END). The winner? Not even close. NMT boosted jump height, sprint speed, agility, and aerobic power. NMT reduced injury rates. END barely moved the needle—except on fatigue. Power beats mileage when it comes to readiness.
