EFFECTS OF VIRTUAL REALITY TRAINING ON ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE IN PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYERS (VR - FOOTBALL)
ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE IN VIRTUAL REALITY: THE USE OF VIRTUAL REALITY FOR TRAINING IN PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYERS
This study aimed to investigate the effects of virtual reality (VR)-assisted training compared with traditional training and routine practice on physical and neurophysiological performance in young professional football players. Thirty-nine male football players aged 18-19 were randomly assigned to VR training, traditional training, and control groups. The intervention lasted for several weeks and included structured training sessions integrated into regular team practice.
Physical performance was assessed using balance, 30-meter sprint, and muscle strength tests, while neurophysiological outcomes were evaluated using electroencephalography (EEG). Measurements were conducted before and after the intervention period. The VR group performed immersive exercise-based training using VR applications designed to improve coordination, strength, endurance, and cognitive-motor interaction, while the traditional group performed the same exercises without VR support.
The study hypothesized that VR-assisted training would lead to greater improvements in both physical performance and brain activity compared to traditional and control conditions.

Eksperymentalny: Virtual Reality Training Group
Participants in this group received virtual reality (VR)-based training sessions using immersive applications such as Head Football, Rezzil Player, FitXR, and similar platforms.
The training was performed after regular team practice and included structured exercise protocols designed to improve balance, strength, endurance, coordination, and cognitive-motor integration.
Sessions were conducted using a VR headset in a controlled environment with defined work-rest intervals.

Aktywny komparator: Traditional Training Group
Participants in this group performed the same exercise content as the VR group under coach supervision without the use of virtual reality technology.
The training focused on improving balance, strength, endurance, and coordination using conventional football training methods.
Sessions were conducted after regular team practice with structured exercise sets and rest intervals similar to the VR group.

EEG Spectral Power (Theta, Alpha, Beta Bands - Anterior Region)
Ramy czasowe: Baseline (Week 0) and Post-intervention (Week 8)
|
EEG was recorded using a 32-channel system (BrainAccess Extended+).
Power spectral density was calculated using the Welch method, and absolute power values (µV²) were derived for theta (4-8 Hz), alpha (8-12 Hz), and beta (12-30 Hz) frequency bands.
Analyses were performed by averaging electrodes in the anterior region.

EEG Functional Connectivity (Anterior-Central Coherence)
Ramy czasowe: Baseline (Week 0) and Post-intervention (Week 8)
|
Functional connectivity was assessed using coherence analysis between anterior and central brain regions.
Coherence values were calculated for theta (4-8 Hz) and alpha (8-12 Hz) frequency bands using Welch-based methods.

Dynamic Balance (Togu Challenge Disc Test)
Ramy czasowe: Baseline (Week 0) and Post-intervention (Week 8)
|
Balance performance was assessed using the Togu Challenge Disc.
Participants performed double-leg and single-leg balance tasks (dominant and non-dominant), and the best score based on the device's standardized scoring system (1-5 scale) was recorded.
