Explosive specific force trough small sided games and few players?: part 5.

Hope you have had a really nice and loving Christmas day.
Not planned like this, but as a gift of Santa, today it arrives the moment of visualize the acceleration data demonstrated by professional soccer players of a Spanish first division team. This data was recollected during a season (2007-2008) in all sessions where the same tasks where performed (in this case are small sided soccer games with 1 versus 1, 2 v 2, 3 v 3, and 4 v 4, all played with goalkeepers and standard goals.
The variable analyzed are basically two: the average of all the accelerations over 1 m/s/s demonstrated by each player participating in the task, and the average for all players of just the maximum acceleration demonstrated during the task (so just one maximum acceleration for each player for each task).
Also we include the average number of "maximal" accelerations per minute of play (during the task) per player. This is another important issue to understand: maximal absolute value of acceleration depends on the initial velocity ... we will deepen in it in the future. But at this moment you must know that we have applied this important aspect in the calculation of this variable.

Enjoy, and stay tuned!!!
