About this listen
Are you a skilled soccer player who can't make it big? Is it because of your lack of physical and mental fitness? This guide is your answer.
This guide provides an excellent way to help with soccer fitness for players and coaches. It looks at fitness for soccer and considers how this reflects and differs from general fitness. It offers examples of ways in which players can enhance their endurance for playing soccer.
It also looks at the kind of fitness specifically needed for playing soccer at the highest level our ability allows and considers the science behind the practice. Soccer Fitness considers the different aspects of getting fit for soccer.
It looks at ways to develop upper body strength. There is practical guidance offered with regards to plyometrics - specific training programs to develop explosiveness of movement and subsequent speed. Pace is needed in soccer, although it is a sprint-and-jog sport. This guide offers practical ways to develop the much needed attribute of stamina as well.
It is not just physical fitness that is required to be a good soccer player; mental awareness is vital. Positioning, selecting passes, making runs, and concentration are all about developing good mental fitness to help make the best decisions in a fast developing situation. This guide offers ways to enhance this.
We look at the kind of discipline needed to become fit enough to play soccer at the highest level we can and how diet can aid with achieving this specific fitness for playing soccer. We hope that this guide will offer insights to help you achieve what you want in your sporting joys, whether playing at a fun amateur level at local league standard to a semi-professional level or even for those who dream of playing professionally.

Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

Story
When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

On the playing field, natural talent isn’t enough—there’s a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.

Story
Many poker players can make good decisions at the table with a reasonable frequency. Nevertheless, there are numerous situations where even very experienced players behave in predictable ways. These deeply-ingrained habits lead them to make mistakes. The problem is that these situations won't often arise at the table by chance - you have to make them happen. Exploitative Play in Live Poker is a ground-breaking work that teaches you how to create the circumstances where your opponents will be likely to blunder and how to exploit them when they do.

Good Audio Book, Covers A Lot!
This book is a good book to learn to be a better soccer player. It gives you exercise ideas and suggestions, it is a bit odd because there can not be pictures but they are described well. This book also separates kid and teen players from professionals. I think that is very important because a lot of times I think kids and teens hear about professional players and they want to be like them. The problem with younger people trying to follow advice for professionals is that their bodies are not ready for the same amount of work. I found this book relaxing to listen to and I used it with my kids who like to play soccer. I received a free copy of this audio book in exchange for an honest unbiased review. This has not influenced my opinions on the product. I have written honestly about my thoughts and opinions on the product.

Great Book for Soccer Tips and Drills
My son is starting his u9 academy season this fall and we have been using this all summer to get him in better shape for the coming season and just keep him alert. The book is super easy to follow and understand, and we really have seen an improvement to his attention and skill throughout the summer.

Fun read
I used to play soccer in school and I thought this book would be interesting to read. I wondered if there was anything I could still do today and if any fitness changed. I found out that there are many things that can not only improve your soccer fitness but also your overall fitness. Overall this was a very interesting read.

Great ideas
I really liked this audio book, I thought it gave some great workout routines and strategies. The 2 things that I was a little disappointed in was 1) I couldn't understand some of the things the reader was saying because of his accent. 2) I didn't like that he said soccer and then changed it to football and then back to soccer. Overall it was GREAT and well worth the time to listen to it. https://www.audible.com/?ipRedirectFrom=AU&ref=Adbl_ip_rdr_from_AU
