Talking about warm-up before the official match, we need to be warning about what we said, for the importance of this moment for research the optimal conditions both phisical and psichological to meet the match. In my opinion the warm-up could be guide by the atletic trainer or, in absence of him , by the coach, and could be subdivided in this way:
- A first free part where players can make everything they want, with or without ball, for a duration of 2-3’ (serves to the mental preparation for the game)
- A second part guided by the atletic trainer with joint mobility exercise, increasing gradually the intensity, for a duration of 5-6’
- Another free parte with the players that make passes in pairs for 3-4’
- A part that I defined “cognitive”, because needs also an attentive effort by the players, like a mini-game in the nine-meters area with the players divided into two teams (5-6’)
- A phase composed by exercise of high intensity but with a very short duration like gaits of quickness for feet or brief sprints (2-3’)
- Shoots for the warm-up of the goalkeeper and shoots from the individual positions (7-8’)
The total duration of the warm-up could be about of 25’ and this could be composed by already knonw exercise and place without interruptions.
This is my opinion, but now I propose to you a concrete example of the warm-up of two teams of the world elite like Barcellona and Chambery Savoie; this two movie were give to me by my friend Simone Lugli that had personally make the shooting…and for this I thank him very much!
After have seen these two warm-up I thought and I have made some reflections. First of all, thuogh they represent the best of our sport I have to criticize some parts of these two warm-up:
- Both teams make a initial warm-up totally free and I think that, despite of the experience of these professional athlet, thay need an expert of “human motion” guide.
- Both teams makes some stretching before the phase with the ball, and I think that this is a waste of time usable in a different way, also for the fact that don’t exist scientific evidences to support the stretching in th warm-up both for an optimization of performance and prevention of injury; it is important train the flexibility and muscle elasticity during the week and the season, but the warm-up before the game is not the right time
- Missing totally a phase that stimulate the attention of the players that, in my pinion, is fundamental in the pre-match; even for few minutes, it is very important stimulate players with exercise that aren’t monotone but that includes unexpected and the needs of take decisions in a brief period (like in the match)
After this analysis I have to underlined however that is very difficult modify the habits of experienced players and overall in an importan moment like the pre-match, but I think that is our duty inform players about the right methods of warm-up with the aim of optimize the performance during the match.
I am wating for your opinions
