I think you’ve said it quite eloquently.
Having a good routine is probably the most important factor in maintaining a successful training program.
It is crucial that you challenge yourself by dedicating each training session to one particular skill or weakness (as you have already done).
Otherwise, practice will easily become dull.
Training four hours per day is great - you are probably progressing quite rapidly.
If you stick to your plan, succeeding in the game will only be a matter of time for you.
Visualization is an effective way of supplementing your individual training.
Besides sharpening your skills, you should work towards expanding your view of the game.
Watch quality soccer from diverse leagues and look for parallels. Closely observe top players and figure out what makes them so effective.
At scrimmages or pickup games, experiment by playing at different positions including in goal.
Learn as much as possible about the game. You should seriously consider buying some books. This website does not cover in enough detail many aspects of the game especially psychology, nutrition and conditioning. by Expert 13:24:00 Tuesday 10 August 2004 |
