JOEL JAMIESON'S THOUGHTS ON CONDITIONING


Joel Jamieson's book titled "MMA Conditioning" changed the game for me from a energy systems point of view and how I now go about training it.

Unlike many of the football fitness drills we do this actually explains what each drill does from a physiological stand point rather then doing something, getting knackered and hoping for the best as far as increased endurance is concerned.

Hoping is is not good enough by the way.

I can't find the link for this article right now but here's what I out in my files about this one specifically that might tick the old brain over a bit more then usual:

* There's a difference between fitness and conditioning

* Fitness is being strong, fast etc which sits on the energy output side of things

* Conditioning is a skill set that gives us the ability to utilise and manage our energy effectively and puts out fitness to work/energy expenditure

* For conditioning you need dynamic energy control which is the ability to control your heart rate/output so you need to actually know what you;re limits are and develop a strategy to work around it

*  Recovery/respiration is the ability to breathe better, recover faster and perform better

* Fatigued motor control is the ability to maintain technique under fatigue

Read this again and then think about what caches and players expect in footy.

W e want everyone to end the game totally f%&ked, give 110% and all that bullshit but at what cost - not getting the footy that's what.

Train smart to play smart!
