This experimental study investigated the effects of isolated and combined training methodologies on the cardiovascular endurance of 120 inter-collegiate soccer players. Participants were randomly assigned to a Multimedia Training group, a Traditional Training group, a Combined Training group, or a Control group for a standardized six-week intervention. Cardiovascular endurance was assessed via a standardized test. Results demonstrated that all experimental groups achieved significant improvements, with the Combined Training group exhibiting superior gains compared to both isolated training groups. The Multimedia Training group showed significant improvement, though it was less effective than the Combined approach. The Traditional Training group also improved but to a lesser extent than the Combined group. The Control group showed no significant change. The findings indicate that an integrated approach, which synergistically develops physiological capacity through traditional methods and enhances perceptual engagement through multimedia, is the most effective method for enhancing soccer-specific cardiovascular endurance.
