Abstract: While football referees do their physical training or are in competitions, the most important physiological changes occur in their energy supply system. Physical effort in football referees is a mixed aerobic and anaerobic strain, with the aerobic component prevailing over the anaerobic one. The aerobic dominant has a fluctuating dynamic, where aerobic capacity alternates with anaerobic instances that are crucial and decisive in certain situations during a football match, such as match speed and match difficulty. Paradoxically, the specific physical training of referees, which, in our view, is satisfactory, judging by the results of the two tests we have run, the performance of the most valuable 3rd league referees is, with few exceptions, relevant for the overview of the football arbitration in Romania, a fact that also comes to counteract the public perception of a perpetuation of a wrong approach to the training of Romanian referees. Taking account of the considerations above, we are going to run a training experiment on 2nd and 3rd league referees and propose an approach to their physical training through physical training standardization and individualization.
