FV slope, force-velocity slope; V0, theoretical maximal velocity; F0, theoretical maximal force; Pmax, theoretical maximal power; FV deficit, percent difference respect to the optimal FV profile; Training experience: years of specific soccer training; Body size: product of body mass and stature residuals (individual values minus the mean); R2 = Pearson’s multivariate coefficient of determination; B = unstandardized beta (regression) coefficient; SE B = standard error of B; β = standardized beta (regression) coefficient. * p < 0.05, p < 0.01, § p < 0.001.
