I find it you maintain a decent fitness throughout winter then straight into sprints. Its sickening but no point being aboe to run all day if you can beat a man to a ball. I have been running 5/10km each week just to keep ticking over along with some (small amount) of gym work. dstuction (Donegal) - Posts: 1209 - 08/01/2013 12:29:48 1315167 Link 0 |
it amazes me the levels club sides go to to get fit then when it comes to a match they cant kick a ball over the bar from 30 yards or strike a point from 50 yards or rise a sideline of the ground. Brianmac78 (Dublin) - Posts: 1168 - 08/01/2013 13:20:56 1315218 Link 0 |

Your training should be tailored to your position, your strengths and weaknesses as a player firmly in consideration. GetOverTheBar (Tyrone) - Posts: 1388 - 08/01/2013 19:29:15 1315540 Link 0 |

Training like a 800-1500m athlete might not be such a bad idea if your a mobile half back/forward. Although you will get injured if you don't practice these runs on a pitch, twisting and turning off each side with it. Treadmills are the devil for GAA/Soccer players - excellent for building up aerobic base sure, just be aware its a forced motion and your muscles will be under much more pressure when you do hit the grass because grass 'twitches' muscle more than a treadmill.

400m runs on a track x 6 once a week in between 2 nights running 5 - 10 km also.. Start steady but keep up the 400m runs, i did them before and it was the fittest i ever was... get a few with you for alternating taking the lead.. 81DLSAM (Donegal) - Posts: 281 - 09/01/2013 20:30:08 1316062 Link 0 |

ormond, sorry for slow reply.. we were doing the runs at about 90 to 100%. if i remember correctly we were hitting upper 80 seconds per lap of track and worked into upper 70s per lap after a gud few weeks. its tough and u need to push yourselves, hence why i suggest you take a couple others and alternate leaders to take the pace. you need a good walk and few minutes inbetween runs.. if training is mainly ball work it is a great way of opening up the legs midweek also but difficult to work with tuesday thursday sessions.. hope this helps 81DLSAM (Donegal) - Posts: 281 - 12/01/2013 09:22:30 1317191 Link 0 |
