Rated by buyers -
The book takes a technical view of fitness training. Unfortuantely, the authors self-important tone takes away from the message.
It discusses the benefits of aerobic vs. anaerobic exercise and sprints vs. distance. The book debunks some popular myths relating to fitness training vs. skills training and long distance endurance vs. soccer endurance.
The most useful information provided is the differences between soccer fitness and general endurance. Many of the points seem self evident after you read them, but they are rarely addressed at youth level. Soccer Fitness brings a scientific approach to training and evaluation with instruction designed to fill specific player needs.
