    Related to weight lifting? General?
    Squats, calf raises, Jumping rope,Sprints, Run Hills...etc.
    You can increase your leg strength all day long, but as far a speed and explosiveness, my money's on sprints. What position are you playing?

    You can try some plyometrics ;like jump squats etc.

    Also if you are playing soccer it may benefit you greatly to do mutliplaner lunges to strengthen your flexebility, strength and agility in all three planes of motion.

    There are drills for running faster, usually for distance, but sprinters have drills too.

    A good program...assuming you have a strong base, 20-25 miles per week or more for at least 6 months, would include runs with "Fartlek work" (speed play), like a 2-4 mile run, but with 100% bursts of speed in between two landmarks, say telephone poles or something....6-12 times during the run.... hill repeats build strength, 6-8 short to moderate hills, 50-200 yards, ......sprints, stride-outs, intervals, high kicking/butt kicking stride drills...etc It's a combination of training.

    Best to maybe research a program that improves both sprinting and endurance

    Good Luck

    So, would that be a Defender or a Fullback in the UK? Best of luck to your friend! By the way......all of the recommended excercises should be done with the ball.
