e-Book / Balancing Physical & Tactical Load in Soccer: A Holistic Approach
After having worked together, remotely, for so long on one of the most important publications of our respective careers, I ,along with my friend and collaborator Francesco Farioli, am proud to announce that “Balancing Physical & Tactical Load in Soccer: A Holistic Approach” is available as an e-book.
We put in numerous hours and days of work to condense our experience and beliefs into a single book.
This publication's aim is to inseparably merge tactical needs and physical aspects, so that the sum of its comprising parts functions as a fundamental resource to soccer professionals.
A brief description of the publication:
How to achieve and manage the balance between physical and tactical training? Where does a fitness coach’s work end and where does the work of the football coach start? How can we make our training sessions more effective? How can we prepare our players for any given scenario they might face in a game? Simple but fundamental questions that all of us, who work in soccer, have (or had). The current manual written by Efthymios Kyprianou and Franscesco Farioli provides all the answers to the above questions, based on theory and practice, supported with detailed graphs and videos.
