In the second post, I would like to emphasize fitness management role in success. How many times a player sucks and you think you play with 10 men against 11? How many times a really good player, can’t give his best because he is really tired or he lacks match practice? All those have to do with fitness management.
But what is fitness management? It is the way you treat your players in order to get the most out of them. It is a combination of squad rotation, training routine and rest. You don’t have to guess how your players adapt. In game, there are key factors, showing how your players respond.
Condition is one of the most basic things the player should look. It indicates your player’s current fitness levels. With the right management you can keep your players fresh, by regulating the decrease of their condition levels efficiently.
Another important aspect is match practice. A player with lack of games are more prone to have low morale and this results in poor performance. You have to share the time to all your players. A good strategy is to use reserve match to help injured or less used players to stay fit.
Using your best players again and again can cause fatigue. Too many competitive matches or too physical training may cause fatigue. A good, pre-season training and rotation make your players resistant to fatigue. When a player needs holiday, don’t hesitate. Let him charge his batteries again!
I am looking forward to reading your comments.
