A typical soccer game involves running 5-7 miles with frequent sprints, direction changes, and explosive movements. The constant movement keeps heart rate elevated throughout the match. Playing soccer regularly improves cardiovascular health, builds lean leg muscle, and enhances balance and spatial awareness.
