More information

What your footballer fitness testing session measures

This session uses football-relevant tests to give you a reliable snapshot of where you are now, and what to improve next.

  • Quick readiness check and a structured warm-up so results are consistent
  • Acceleration and sprint speed measures (for example short split times)
  • Change of direction and agility testing to reflect match movement demands
  • Lower-body power testing (for example a jump-based measure)
  • Aerobic or intermittent endurance testing linked to repeat efforts in football
  • Brief movement observations to flag areas that may affect speed, efficiency or injury risk
  • A clear results summary with training actions you can start straight away

Useful if you want numbers behind your pre-season, in-season, or return-to-play work

  • Pre-season baseline before increasing training load
  • Mid-season check to see whether your fitness is holding up
  • Trial, academy or selection prep where you want evidence of pace and engine
  • Returning after time off and you want a sensible benchmark to rebuild from
  • Comparing progress after a block of speed, conditioning or strength training

How the 60 Minute Footballer Fitness Testing runs

You will start with a quick chat about your playing level, recent training, knocks, and what you want to learn from the test. After a warm-up, you will complete the tests in a logical order to reduce fatigue affecting the results, then finish with a short cooldown. The session ends with a debrief so you understand your scores and the next steps.

After your test: results you can use in training

You will get your key scores explained in plain language, along with priority areas to work on first. If you are tracking progress, you can book a retest after a focused training block, often around 6 to 8 weeks, to see what has moved and what needs a new approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be an advanced player to book footballer fitness testing?
No. The tests are suitable for committed players at most levels, as long as you can run comfortably and have been training recently. If you are completely new to exercise, a gentler assessment may be more appropriate.
What should I wear or bring to the fitness testing session?
Wear football or gym kit you can sprint and change direction in, plus supportive trainers. Bring water and, if you use them, any braces or supports you train in.
Can I do the test if I have had an injury recently?
If you are in pain, have swelling, or have been told not to run, postpone the test. If you are returning to training, the session can be used as a benchmark, but you should be honest about any limits on sprinting or cutting.
Will I get my results on the day?
You will be talked through the main scores and what they suggest during the debrief. If a written summary is included, you will receive it afterwards with your key numbers and training priorities.
How often should a footballer retest their fitness?
Retesting is most useful after a consistent training block so changes are meaningful. Many players retest every 6 to 8 weeks in pre-season, then less often in-season to monitor maintenance.
