The Conte Thread

[Unionjack 7,531]

Happy about the progress the lads have made and when the rest of the team  start then we can begin doing training properly.

But we are going to get hammered with our back like even with Ola looking like a good prospect. We need to shell out for what we want/need like we paid over for Kante.

That corner yesterday was shocking. The Austrian dude alone in the midst of our box, I wanted to cry.

All good but is this sustainable in the whole season and in the coming season? Especially in the coming season, we shall see if the players are able to accept this.

Think the double training sessions are just for pre-season to get the players back into shape as soon as possible. Doing them after the season starts could result in more injuries.

Its worth mentioning (i think) that Conte has a degree in Sports exercise. 

Anway, the off season is for building the athletic side of the sport and then the actual season is for maintaining that fitness and making sure the recovery is there throughout the campaign. 

Put another way, pre season is for getting fit and improving (if possible) to a new level of fitness and then the season is about maintaining that level.

Most clubs do double training sessions in pre-season to get fitness lvls up, it's nothing new...

This is true. Of course he isn't going to do double training sessions when the team got several matches a week sometimes.

He has however always done double training sessions at pre-season, also with Juve. As the poster above says, this is really not that unusual for any clubs.
