muscle building for soccer is basically legs and core isn't it (im not sure i dont play soccer) so squats with dumbells and planks (both normal and side) would be a good start, and at this age (im also 14) we need to watch how heavy the weights are, like my pe teacher cant lift heavy things with his fingers because he used to much weight or something like that, so dont go crazy with the weights
 
I'm not sure about what you are saying about your PE teacher but you are right on about the legs and core.

12345 look into a fullbody workout 3 times a week, lots of running and eatting more calories and protein. Maybe 150 grams of protein a day or more.

Read the stickies in the weights forum and nutrition.
 
i played soccer my whole life and i was average sized kid. my workouts just like J SoLO said were 3 time a week mon-wed-fri or sat depending on games. full body workouts get those legs strong leg presses, squats, quad expensions, work your calfs for sure and hammies to. do some kid of calf curl and ham curl. best is do sucidies and sprinting exercies. but make sure you do more core and upperbody too. yes protein portein portein

thanks for your reply....... what important exercises can u explain to me that will help my legs and what upper body workouts would help me for soccer to be able to not get pushed off of the ball?
 
Muscle weight is what you need. Compound movements. These are exercises that work multiple muscles at once.

Bench press
Over head press
Row
Pull-up
Deadlift
squat

Google stronglifts 5x5
 
hey thanks gribbs for the response i can see u no what im tryiing to explain.... by the way a couple more questions.......what important exercises can u explain to me that will help my legs and what upper body workouts would help me for soccer to be able to not get pushed off of the ball?
 
well its going to be kinda hard for you since your are fairly small but as long as you try youll be gettin somewhere. if you want that i would deffinetly do some squats, leg presses, maybe a couple other iso-legs like quad extenstion and one other, upper body get these into your routine. bench press, military press, clean and press, rows and you can do 1 or 2 minor exercises for each body part. you want to work on your BALANCE though this is whats going to help you the most. i know people half my size that if i ran into them they wouldn't fall down becuase of their balance. like i said before tho do wind sprints/ regular sprints, run stairs, and do SUICIDES.

oh yeah do some hack squats every other leg day, and pull ups or chin ups.

PROTEIN PROTEIN GOTTA EAT MORE TO GAIN MORE

Click to expand...

Dont get too hung up on building upper body strength for soccer,remember the other guys on your team and esp your opponents are the same age as you but soccer is not a sport where muscular strength is hugely beneficial.

Your legs are what will get you through a game so I'd throw a few sets of squats into the mix if you want to continue your present regime.

oh and as for getting pushed off the ball (which would be a foul but I know what you mean) learn to shield the ball.youre still young but experience will come with age:cool:


now where's my walking stick??
 
suicides are what i have come to belive the best... then if you have a track or some where you can sprint do intrevel training. sprint for 20 seconds walk for 45 sprint for 20 walk for 45, do that for 5 min maybe 6... then next time you do these a couple days later sprint 30 walk 50 sprint 30 walk 50. one day do the 20 next time do 30 then back to 20 and so on. jump rope, and do a stairs climber for like 8-12 on a medium intensity the most you can handle for that amount of time

what poition do you play maybe i can give you some more tips for your postions.

oh yeah practice with a ball when you are home juggling, and ball control for about 30 min high intensity so you sweat. good for ball handeling, and heart rate
 
just try everything i said and see where you get from there if you have any other questions just post back on this post
