Technical Practices to Maximise Performance: 50 Practices - Youth to Pro - Training Week - Football Periodization
Technical Practices to Maximise Performance
50 Practices | Youth to Pro | Training Week | Football Periodization
Technical Practices from a World Leading High Performance Expert to Maximise the Performance of Your Players and Team
Following the success of his best-selling book, "Football Periodization to Maximise Performance", and first volume of this series “Warm Ups to Maximise Performance”, Adam Owen PhD (High Performance Expert and UEFA Pro & A License Educator) has now utilised his unparalleled expertise in football science and performance coaching to focus on optimising technical training for coaches at all levels.
Key Benefits of this Book for Coaches:
- Small and Large Spaces: Learn how to effectively implement intensive (small spaces) and extensive (larger spaces) technical practices to develop players’ skills and physical abilities.
- Game-Specific Actions: Prepare players for short, sharp passes and longer technical executions relevant to match situations.
- Complete Readiness: Promote technical, physical, and mental readiness for training and competition.
- Progressive Practices: Explore varied practices suitable for Pro, Semi-Pro, Academy, and Youth levels.
If the daily training content is not expertly planned, insufficient conditioning and higher rates of injury can occur, radically reducing the performances of the players and the team. Using his vast knowledge of football science and performance coaching, Adam’s football periodization methodology provides the answers for coaches at all levels.
The Importance of Technical Practices:
Technical practices are essential for player development. With this book, you will learn how to implement technical practices that bridge the warm up phase (previous book in this series) to the main part of the session, preparing players physically, mentally, and tactically for training and matches:- Seamless Transition: Improve player/team performance and create a smooth transition into the main session.
- Progressive Practices: Develop key technical skills through structured, progressive practices.
- Session Objectives: Align technical practices with session objectives to maximise effectiveness and performance.
- Varied Practices: Incorporate intensive and extensive technical practices for varied physical and tactical demands.
The Football Periodization Methodology:
This warm up book is an invaluable tool, but is one piece of a larger methodology fully outlined in the "Football Periodization to Maximise Performance" book, so we highly recommend adding it to your library to learn from the full training program.
"Adam provides an outstanding mixture of applied research, practical application and tremendous experience in the world of high-performance football."
