Don't just do a couple of laps and a few stretches to warm-up
Don’t just jog a couple laps and do random stretches. A real pre-pitch routine is intentional: you raise your temperature, activate the right muscles, and progressively build to game speed—so your first hard sprint, cut, or tackle isn’t your warm-up.
Don't just do a couple of laps and a few stretches to warm-up
The importance of Pre-Pitch routines
Pre-pitch routines matter because they prepare your body and brain for match-speed before the first sprint, cut, or contact. - Injury prevention: They raise body temperature, “wake up” key stabilizers (ankles, hips, trunk), and expose tissues to gradual intensity—so you’re not going from cold → max speed in one play. - Performance optimization: You switch on the nervous system for faster reactions, sharper first steps, better coordination, and cleaner mechanics in sprinting, jumping, and changing direction. - Consistency: A repeatable routine creates rhythm and confidence—so you start games ready, not searching for the feeling. Simple line: The warm-up is your insurance policy and your performance switch.

Deceleration training
Deceleration training matters because football isn’t just sprinting—it’s stopping, cutting, and re-accelerating hundreds of times. - Performance: The fastest players aren’t only quick… they can slam on the brakes under control and change direction without losing balance. Better decel = sharper cuts, quicker transitions, cleaner first step after the stop. - Injury reduction: Most non-contact injuries happen during hard stops and direction changes. Strong deceleration (especially eccentric strength) helps protect the knee, groin, hamstring, and ankle when forces spike. - Efficiency & endurance: If you brake well, you waste less energy “slipping” and can repeat high-intensity actions longer. Simple way to say it: Speed is the gas—deceleration is the brakes. Great footballers have both.
