If you want your football talent to be noticed, you need to find something that will distinguish you from hundreds of other players at first glance and so much so that when the scout sees you again, immediately associate you with this skill.
A good example of such a situation is Ngolo Kante, who, after his transfer to Leicester City FC, when the coach saw him, immediately caught his eye not what his football skills are, but the aspect of how the French is well prepared physically, how hard he works at the pitch, how many runs with maximum intensity from the first to the last minute, both during training and a match.
Kante was already a good player at that time, but his physical preparation compared to other players was almost unrealistic because he was absolutely not tired and after training and the match he looked exactly the same as at the beginning.
And today we have 4 tips for you on what to do so you can play so that your game, no matter what minute of the match, is always at its highest intensity.
It will cost you a lot of hard work, in club training and, above all, individual training.
However, if you follow these tips, such preparation, combined with good football skills 100 percent, will allow you to stand out and receive offers from better teams.
1) RIGHT DIET.
If we want our body to be able to train at high speed throughout the match and reduce the feeling of exhaustion, we should provide it with high-quality fuel, which in the context of endurance and good physical preparation means a diet rich in carbohydrates, adequate hydration, eating meals rich in macro and microelements. If you lack knowledge of sports nutrition, you should seek advice from a dietitian, and if you cannot afford it, look for information on this topic individually in books and on the Internet.
2) REGULAR INTERVAL TRAINING
The specificity of a footballer's effort differs significantly from that of a standard runner. Football is characterized by short, repeated accelerations and changes in running direction. In order to faithfully reproduce this during endurance training, instead of classic running at one pace for long distances, we should use intervals, i.e. short sprints / runs at 80/90% for relatively short distances with a small interval between repetitions.
At the end of the article, we will post a video with sample training sets.
3) IMPROVING RUNNING TECHNIQUE.
A very important element of improving endurance is the economy of running, which is nothing else than reducing energy losses while moving on the pitch by, for example, improving the technique of running or lowering muscle tension. It is worth consulting our running technique with a trainer for motor preparation. This inconspicuous activity is able to significantly reduce energy losses, thus improving endurance.
This element is very difficult to correct yourself, so I recommend consulting a trainer who will help you with this!
4) GOOD SUPPLEMENTATION OF THE BODY
To support our body even more during a significant effort, we can use all kinds of supplements that have a whole range of substances that help us perform long-term / intense exercise. One example is beetroot juice, which I mentioned in one of the previous articles, and if you haven't read it, use the search engine on our site and catch up.
The process of developing in this aspect will take a long time, but I assure you that it is worth making this effort because the effects you can achieve will be amazing and may be decisive whether you will be able to enter the professional level or be just an amateur forever.
