lake district canary 4,531 Posted April 19, 2017 That''s bonkers. The way players are monitored to the nth degree and molycoddled is one of the reasons they look so casual half the time imo. There''s plenty of monitoring, plenty of strength/balance/speed of reaction work, but where are the routines to build up stamina? Each little exercise regime is all well and good, but if there is not enough stamina work.............or don''t they do that anymore? Cosy set up with all the technology and gizmos, but it''s no Mousehold....[:O] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex_ncfc 662 Posted April 20, 2017 ALL of this stuff happens in training, every single day?? Never seen anything like it. It can''t be that long ago that players used to just turn up, warm up and then train. All those gadgets and super expensive technology and for what? Are there actually any benefits? Judging by how we''ve performed this season, probably not!It''s an interesting insight to be honest, as I thought players went in early and had the day to themselves after about 10AM. But all seems a bit over the top to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,671 Posted April 20, 2017 I may be p*ssing in the wind here LDC, but I have this vague feeling that the sports scientists, coaches etc at the club might have a slightly better idea on what to do than you do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 1,557 Posted April 20, 2017 I didn''t realise you had all your Coaching badges LDC.I''m sure you know better than all the coaches at the major clubs around the world who train in a similar way to Norwich City. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted April 20, 2017 What a shambles this club is. Wasting all these resources and salaries on qualified coaches, physios and sports scientists when they could have just got Lakey in instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellowhammer 86 Posted April 20, 2017 A load of old tosh ,nothing beats running up and down mousehold heath piggy back or running on the Sandy beach with Ron Saunders ,they were the fastest fittest team in the league at the time .Ron did give them pep pills as well but no messing about just hard training and confidence building .
