#24 Soccer Training Session

Today we are doing a 30 minute training session focusing on fitness with the ball!

You don't want to solely focus on fitness in your training and forget about ball work. It takes weeks to get fit; it takes years to have a great touch and technique. So whenever possible mix ball work into your fitness sessions. 

Equipment Needed: As many balls and cones as you have. 

0-5 minutes: 

Warm Up. Jog, side shuffle, karoke, stretching, etc. 

5-10 minutes: 

Jogging at a good pace with the ball for 1 minute. Then juggling for 30 seconds. Repeat until 5 minutes is up. You will have a little extra time here in the 5 minute window. Use it to juggle. 

10-15 minutes: 

Suicide sprints with the ball. Do roll overs to each cone, then cut hard and sprint back normal. You are mixing up your dribbling and running here. Working on your touch and getting your heart rate up and down by varying the running styles. Do 5 reps per set, rest and repeat 2 sets. Rest for 15 seconds between each rep. Rest for 1 minute between sets. 

15-20 minutes: 

Ladder Drills with sprint dribbling. Do different ladder exercises, then sprint to a ball 5 yards away from the ladder and dribble it another 10 yards. Light jog back, very light jog back. Repeat 6 times. Rest and then do 3 sets total. 

20-25 minutes: 

5 Minutes jogging with the ball. Solid pace. Get your eyes up during this. Don't stare at the ball the whole time. 

25-30 minutes: 

This your cool down. Finish with 5 minutes of juggling. Feet, thighs, head, you be creative. If you go for your record be sure and update your Online Soccer Academy juggling chart. 

If you want to extend the training session time then add on time to any section you want extra work on. 

Make sure to finish with cool down and stretching. If you are up for it add on a few sit ups and push ups!
