It's the first week of pre-season and that means just one thing: get those legs moving. But don't worry we're not going to make you run laps of your local park. We’ve got something far more fun (but equally gruelling) in store.
With the help of technical skill specialists Coerver Coaching and their sports science guru Luke Cheyne we’ve devised a six week programme that will develop your ball mastery and fitness in tandem.
When the going gets tough you can turn to the diet tips and recipes of nutritionist Liam Holmes who has put together a plan to ensure you’re eating for energy and intensity.
