How should footballers actually strength train during the season?
Most players either do too much, get sore all week, feel heavy on matchday… or stop lifting completely and lose strength.
In this episode, I break down exactly how to train in-season so you can stay strong, explosive, fresh, and performing at a high level all season long.
We cover:
How many times per week footballers should lift in-season
The best gym split for your schedule
Which exercises to prioritize (and which to stop wasting time on)
How to combine strength work with speed and conditioning
Whether strength and plyometrics should be on separate days
Whether to lift before or after football training
