SPF Academy players on their physical fitness test
The physical aspect is getting relevance in the football performance today because this we do a physical fitness test to our academy´s players three times pair season.
Ten general physical skills should be incorporated into every aspect of athletic activity, as well as each of the human energy pathways. A comprehensive fitness program addresses each of these and can be deemed successful only to the degree which if offers improvement, while individuals are considered fit in equal measure to their competency in each of these skills.
These physical skills are: Cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, Stamina, Strength, Power, Speed, Flexibility, Agility, Accuracy, Balance and Coordination
All the players pass the test at the beginning of the football season, in the middle of it and when the football season is ending. The test is managing by our technical staff, focusing on the main important aspects for the football players preparation.
The final goals of the test are:
- Having a metric reference by the coaches and the technical staff to design a bespoke program for each player in order to achieve individual goals.
- Make players aware about their capacities and the good of the collective and individual enforcement.
This is one step forward from SPF Academy to bring foreign players the best conditions for their professional football preparation for the Spanish football leagues.
In words of Ruben Estelles, CEO of Spanish Pro Football Academy; “The continuous demanding of more intensive players by teams, needs a very complete player not only in technical skills as well tactical and physical. These tests bring to the technical staff a better idea of the weakness and strengths of each player doing better follow up of their individual workout program”
