FOOTBALL
Football is an amazing sport to play but nevertheless , it acquires a lot of skill and speed. One of the ways you can increase your running capacity is by doing Dual Exercise.Start off by running back and forth from two points in the range of 8 yards or more. If you can do that for about twenty to thirty times , then your ready for the next step. Use something heavy , like heavy shoes or weights attached to your shoe , and re-run the course.
As a safety precaution , you should start off jogging first then running to avoid muscle aches. Keep on running until you can run at your top speed with the weights. Remember to also eat a lot of protein and carbohydrates as they will help in this exercise.
Once you have accomplished that , then you can start training your skills into becoming a better player.
Skills at optimum can help you a lot and if mastered can make you unstoppable. One of the main skills you should learn is dribbling.
Dribbling can be quite tricky and risky. However it is not impossible to pull off an amazing dribbling skill. The key to dribbling quickly is not to use more power but to make contact more frequently by moving the feet faster. You can start of with a simple dribble like keeping the ball in between your legs and moving your legs front and back following the position of the ball while running frontwards.
Dribbling the ball in between your legs.
After you are able to learn a dribbling skill , you should improve it further before training a new skill. Here are some of the steps I got from wikihow.com on how to improve your dribbling skill / skills :
1. One of the best processes to get good at dribbling is to play soccer with a tennis ball, or other smaller ball.
2. Make sure to use all the surfaces of your foot.
3. Change the pace.
4. Improve your weak foot.
5. Use your body to protect the ball.
Once you have gained a huge power of speed and swift dribbling then you must finally learn to finish it off with a beautiful goal. There are many factors to take in hand and many ways to improve these factors.
Example :
1. Accuracy
- this can help you a lot in scoring a right on target goal. Start off by placing a bottle filled with sand or water at about 5-6 yards away. Stand at the same point and try to hit the bottle down using your right leg first and then the left leg. After you are able to hit the bottle down several times then increase the range and keep hitting the bottle down until you are able to hit it from a whole fields range.
2. Power
- power is a vital priority in scoring a goal from afar. First of all , try striking the wall a few hundred times with your right leg and your left leg alternately. As you go on , increase the range from the wall and time your kicks to reach the wall as fast as 1-5 second. After you are able to beat the hell out of the ball from a small range , then move on until you are able to kick as hard and fast ad possible from a whole fields range.
I hope this review will be able to help young football players out there to one day become a hell of a player.
Good luck to all of you.
