The skill in managing the ball is a skill that must be possessed by every football player, but if the player has a low VO2Max, then the player will not be able to compete at the international level. Therefore, we need a training method to improve VO2Max soccer players, in order to sustain the skills that they have. The purpose of this study is to look at the differences between the two training methods aimed at improving VO2Max soccer players. This research is a quantitative quasi-experimental research with post-test control group design. With a total of 76 participants, which are divided into two groups, namely the experimental group who are trained using basic techniques of efficient football and the control group using conventional training. All data obtained are searched for mean, min, max, and standard deviation and the difference between the two methods using independent sample t-test. There are differences between the two training methods in improving VO2Max players. It was found that using effective soccer training methods had a difference of 12,963 to conventional training in improving VO2Max players.
