Soccer Juggling Drills
Conditioning for soccer season?
My soccer season beings in about six weeks and I need to start conditioning. I have an idea of what I want to do for it here is my idea:
Monday – Running
Tuesday – Weight lifting
Wednesday – Running
Thursday – Rest
Friday – Technique (dribbling, juggling, shooting, etc.)
Saturday – Rest
Sunday – Rest
I actually have dance classes on Monday and Friday for an hour and a half but I’d still do soccer workouts, too. But does that seem like a proper conditioning workout or should I add/take away some? Also, are there an drills or exercises you do that seem to work rather well? Thanks in advanced for your help.
In my opinion, It seems fine more or less but don’t let your weekends go to waste just being lazy. I would Sunday for some more work on your technique. Even if it’s just basic dribbling in the back yard. Just do it for 30 minutes and keep it light and short.
