This review provides a definition for multidirectional speed (MDS) and evaluates its technical
and mechanical underpinnings. This review explores each component of MDS while …

Multidirectional speed (MDS) can be defined as‟ the competency and capacity to
accelerate, decelerate, change direction, and maintain speed in multiple directions and …

Speed and agility are central to success in a wide range of sports. Training for Sports Speed
and Agility is the first evidence-based study of all those aspects of athletic preparation that …

The study was undertaken to investigate the relationships between linear speed, change of
direction, and explosive power in the lower limbs of young soccer players. We aimed to …

Abstract Jonathan, N, Russell, M, Shearer, D, Cook, CJ, and Kilduff, LP. Predictors of linear
and multidirectional acceleration in elite soccer players. J Strength Cond Res 33 (2): 514 …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a repeated sprint training with multi-
directional change-of-direction (COD) movements (RSmulti) compared to repeated shuttle …

Abstract SPEED AND AGILITY ARE HIGHLY PRIZED COMMODITIES IN SOCCER, BUT IT
CAN BE ARGUED THAT WHAT IS CRUCIAL IS NOT SPEED AND AGILITY PER SE, BUT …

High-speed actions are known to impact soccer performance and can be categorized into
actions requiring maximal speed, acceleration, or agility. Contradictory findings have been …

The aim of the present study was to examine, in highly trained young soccer players, the
mechanical horizontal determinants of acceleration (Acc) and maximal sprinting speed …
