Physical training is a key part of preparing to play soccer
(football) at any level, but organising a genuinely effective
training programme requires both an understanding the physiological
principles involved and a practical knowledge of the demands of the
game. In response to the lack of in-depth and up-to-date material
focussing on this area, the book provides clear guidelines, an
evidence base and a theoretical framework for proven effective
soccer training. It includes: planning seasonal training to peak at
the right time; training for strength, speed, aerobic and anaerobic
fitness; designing appropriate sessions for training and
rehabilitation; best methods for recovery from exercise and
reducing injury risk; preparation for play in different
environmental conditions; evaluating the effectiveness of training
programmes; and diet, sleep, lifestyle, young players and long-term
development. Clear explanations of the physiological concepts and
sport science research evidence are given throughout, and the book
contains many examples to illustrate the training principles in
practice. for coaches, physical trainers and sport scientists
working in soccer (football). Thomas Reilly is Professor of Sports
Science and Director of the Research Institute for Sport and
Exercise Sciences at Liverpool John Moores University. He is
President of the World Commission of Science and Sports, and chairs
the International Steering Group on Science and Football.
