Training camps.Day eleven. An interview with Andrey Lazu
FC “Sheriff” fitness coach Andrey Lazu talked to the official site of the club:
How is the process of physical culture organized in FC “Sheriff”?
Physical culture is one of the constituents of the whole training process of the team. Football is based on four things: physics, tactics, technics and psychology. The process is organized in a modern way. Taking into account individual actions of each player, we bring him close to maximum load.
What is the physical condition of our players now?
The team is having many loads now, so the physical condition of the players corresponds to the given period of training camps.
Can you say that all players came back from their vacation being functionally prepared?
We don’t have a task to have all players completely ready when they come back from vacation. We gave certain tasks to the players for the period of their vacation. We can see that most of the players followed these tasks. As I have already said, the functional condition of the players corresponds to this period of preparation.
Before coming to the first team you worked with “Sheriff-2”. How different is the level of physical education in the first and in the second team?
Of course, there is a difference. Grown men play in the first team, and young guys play in the second team. Of course, you can feel the difference between a 17-year-old and a 25-year-old man. Nevertheless, we know how to improve the preparation of our young players.
Does the role of speed performance continue to increase in the world of football?
It is no doubt that football becomes more athletic, fast, rough, so the role of speed performance increases every day.
The advance of knowledgeis as important for the fitness coach as for the head coach. How do you improve your knowledge?
I do it with the help of literature, communication with my colleagues, Internet. We get necessary experience, analyze and make programs. Continuous improvement is the growth of each specialist.
They say that titles are taken by fitness coaches and doctors. To how many percent does good work of fitness coach contribute to the team’s success?
I would not divide it into percent. I think if a team achieves a result, then it is a work of the whole club, coaching staff and administration.
