The purpose of this study was to investigate physiological responses to various intermittent and continuous small-sided games (SSGs) - including 2-a-side, 3-a-side, and 4-a-side games - in young soccer players. Twenty soccer players (average age 16.6±0.5 years; mean body height 176.2±4.6 cm; mean body mass 65.9±5.6 kg) voluntarily participated in this study. The subjects underwent anthropometric measurements followed by the YoYo intermittent recovery test. Then, they played intermittent (SSGint) and continuous (SSGcon) 2-a-side, 3-a-side, and 4-a-side soccer-specific SSGs in random order at 2-day intervals. Paired t-tests were used to assess differences between the training regimens (intermittent and continuous) in terms of heart rate (HR), percentage of maximum HR (%HRmax), and blood lactate concentration (LA). The differences in LA, HR and %HRmax between the 2-a-side, 3-a-side and 4-a-side SSGint or the 2-a-side, 3-a-side and 4-a-side SSGcon were identified using a one-way analysis of variance with repeated measures. The results demonstrated that the 3-a-side SSGint and SSGcon measurements were significantly higher than the 2-a-side and 4-a-side games in terms of HR and %HRmax, whereas the 2-a-side SSGint and SSGcon resulted in higher LA responses compared to other SSG types. The study results also demonstrated that SSGint and SSGcon are similar in terms of physiological responses except for 2-a-side game LA responses. The results of this study suggest that both SSGint and SSGcon could be used for the physiological adaptations required for soccer specific aerobic endurance.
本研究旨在探讨不同间歇性和连续性小场比赛（SSG）——包括 2 对 2、3 对 3 和 4 对 4 比赛——对年轻足球运动员的生理反应。20 名足球运动员（平均年龄 16.6±0.5 岁；平均身高 176.2±4.6cm；平均体重 65.9±5.6kg）自愿参加了这项研究。受试者进行了人体测量学测量，然后进行了 YoYo 间歇性恢复测试。然后，他们以 2 天为间隔，以随机顺序进行间歇性（SSGint）和连续性（SSGcon）2 对 2、3 对 3 和 4 对 4 足球专项 SSG。采用配对 t 检验评估训练方案（间歇性和连续性）之间的心率（HR）、最大 HR 的百分比（%HRmax）和血乳酸浓度（LA）的差异。使用重复测量的单向方差分析确定 SSGint 或 SSGcon 的 2 对 2、3 对 3 和 4 对 4 之间的 LA、HR 和 %HRmax 的差异。结果表明，3 对 3 SSGint 和 SSGcon 在 HR 和 %HRmax 方面明显高于 2 对 2 和 4 对 4 比赛，而 2 对 2 SSGint 和 SSGcon 的 LA 反应高于其他 SSG 类型。研究结果还表明，SSGint 和 SSGcon 在生理反应方面相似，除了 2 对 2 比赛的 LA 反应。本研究结果表明，SSGint 和 SSGcon 均可用于足球专项有氧耐力所需的生理适应。
