The training process of football raises questions about the methods we follow to achieve maximum performance. What happens to a football player's body when they train or compete? What energy do they expend during training or in a match? How should they be nourished and in what way to achieve peak performance?

How do I assess the condition of the player? When do I determine that the footballer is tired and what do I recommend they follow? How can I make the training attractive yet meaningful for the team I coach?

All of the above is found in this specific manual that analyzes the latest data based on research, presenting tables and diagrams for better understanding. In a straightforward and concise manner, it allows the reader to grasp the training methodology and connect the elements of technical training – tactical behavior combined with the improvement of physical fitness.
