| Training for football. Hi guys, some of you have alot of knowledge about training etc so I thought I would ask your advice.
I've got football trials in mid September and I would like to give it my best shot. I will not be technically the best, or the worst, but I'm wanting to get myself noticed via stamina, speed and strength. I went to the trials last year and felt I was within my ability however I didn't last long to impress enough.
My strength is good, never been a problem.
My speed is also good but I can't sprint/stop/sprint alot before dieing
I really need to improve my endurance during a football game, which really lets my game down.
Do you have any training regimes I could follow over the next few months to help me with this.
I wasn't sure what to do in regards to changing my weight training, keep it 3 times a week or change? Currcently:
Monday - Chest Triceps
Wednesday - Back Biceps
Friday - Legs
I do a quick ab session after each training, sometimes do morning cardio and go for a run/walk after weights.
How often should I run, how far / fast, should I do interval training, how often?
To sum up, I would like to get as fit as possible,while maintaining my size and possibly increasing my strength. (not asking alot eh)
My diet is decent, I eat about 4 / 5 meals a day, one of these is generally protein and fruit the rest, chicken, eggs, beef, tuna, salmon. My carb sauces are wholemeal bread, pasta, rice (brown and white) potatoes, sometimes oats. I eat lots of fruit and try to get veg in at least once a day. I get my fats from eggs, peanut butter and other fats in the meals I eat
Thanks for advice.
