 Hey, what's going on guys? Here's a training session I did by myself the other day and if you want a full Outline of this training session. I'll post it at the end of this video So you're gonna be warming up Technically and physically, but it's so important that you're warming up mentally or at least getting in the right state of mind Right now nothing else matters. All I want you to focus on is playing football and Improving yourself. So put everything else aside. Don't think about what you're doing after Don't think about what you were doing before just think about Training think about the game that you love and think about becoming better enjoying the process So important that you're doing a physical warm-up taking care of your body Here's just a few simple stretches. I was doing obviously I did a little bit more than this and as I go through my session I stop and do a little bit of stretches as I'm resting and just listen to my body if you're tight in certain areas Just take the time to stretch as always you should be doing dynamic stretching not static stretching You'll do static stretching at the end of your workout The first thing I did was ball control and you guys don't need 20 balls to do these drills You can use cones and in reality, you don't even need cones. You don't even need markers What's important is when you're doing these drills, you're just challenging yourself You're pushing the speed you're trying to go faster You're trying to get yourself out of breath and you're just making the training Realistic now to start it was just casual as just walking with the ball But this is better than just juggling on the spot This is going to force you to have more directional control and it just makes it a little more realistic So I just warmed up with the walking juggling and then I went more into running with the ball or moving with the ball quickly So this is much more realistic These are touches that you're probably going to have in the game at some point when you're controlling the ball out of The air so just try to keep the ball off the ground and move quickly fluidly with the ball Yes I'm trying to go in and out of these cones or in this case the balls as the markers are set up there I'm just running. I'm just having fun with it But I am using these balls as obstacles to go around Next I went into dribbling and this is where I really want you guys to start pushing yourself So you're doing these drills to start I'm just going to focus on my right foot then I'll move to my left foot and then I'll use both feet But when you're doing these it's so important that you're pushing the pace If you're not losing the ball every once in a while if you're not running into cones and losing control Then you're probably not going fast enough. So yes, this is great for improving your dribbling and your touch But it's also going to be a great form of fitness So when I'm doing these drills I'm just going as hard as I can as quickly as I can while keeping good control for about 30 seconds Then I'll stop and I'll rest. I might just get a quick sip of water might do a little stretching Or just juggle the ball on the spot and focus on my breathing as I recover And then I'll get ready to go again for another 30 seconds You should be out of breath. You should be losing control that ball. It should be difficult If you make your training difficult, then the game is going to become easy Using the same markers I put the ball away and I just focused on doing a little bit of fitness and some speed and agility work So I'm just running at any ball and I'm focusing on quick cuts and changes of direction Sometimes I'll get around them. Sometimes I'll just get away from them with a quick cut Just make sure that when you are changing direction You're really focusing on bending your knees and being explosive with that first step out of the change of direction The last thing I did was some shooting and here I'm just dribbling at a cone and I'm cutting away at the last second and getting my shot off So the reason I want you guys to practice shooting in something similar to this fashion is because it's more realistic You're dribbling you're cutting away from the defender and then you're Adjusting your body your footwork to finally get your shot on net if you're just practicing dead balls or you're practicing Running in a straight line and shooting. That's great, but the truth is it's not realistic It's not what you actually do in the game So think about dribbling with speed making a sharp cut getting away from the defender at the last second Adjusting your body focusing on your technique and getting your shots on net after you hit that shot You can jog back to your ball and just go to the next one and get a little fitness out of the process as well Now if you only have one ball, it's gonna be a lot of running. So I suggest you start building up a little collection I've just built up a collection of balls over the years and honestly the more balls you have the better It is for your shooting training.
