Soccer is an intermittent sport characterized by periods of high intensity interspersed with varying levels of recovery. During the game, soccer players are required to perform numerous determinant actions, such as accelerations, decelerations, pace and directional changes, jumps, and strikes, which demand high levels of strength, speed, endurance, and mobility. This review aims to examine the current scientific evidence on velocity-based training (VBT) in order to assess its role in optimizing key actions in soccer players and to provide practical applications for its implementation. A narrative review of the scientific literature was conducted, focusing on velocity-based resistance training and its application in soccer, identifying relevant studies on its effectiveness in improving specific physical capacities and sports performance. Velocity-based resistance training is an effective strategy for enhancing key skills such as linear sprints, vertical jumps, and direction changes. Additionally, this methodology allows for the real-time adjustment of training loads, optimizing outcomes and minimizing muscle fatigue. Velocity-based resistance training represents an innovative and practical tool for soccer coaches and strength and conditioning professionals. Its application can contribute to optimizing physical performance, reducing injury risks, and improving sport-specific capabilities.
