Started Indoor Soccer

[slammedsl1]

I knew I was out of shape, at least the skills haven't faded too much haha

What sort of training can I do to get my cardio back up? I play mid or forward, I'm still pretty quick, but I tire after like 2 short sprints and I get a nagging cramp in my right side all the time...

Any input is appreciated as usual

I am looking to start training for a January indoor team. I was looking into the same thing last week and came across the Fartlek training. It is recommended to do this training for soccer because of the short sprints and regular jogging that is required through the course of a game. Hope this can at least point you in the right direction.

Apart from getting off the court as much as possible (possible with a big squad).

If your cramping too much you might want to stretch a bit before the game. It maybe useful to drink (water or whatever) when you get off the court.

As KingXgeorge stated fartek would be good. You might also want to train your short spirnts (length of your indoor court) over and over with limited rest between reps.
