Hey, boys. How are you??
Recently, I have been surprised at the youngsters in my team who are improving incredibly fast!! As you know, a mental strength for each player counts so big in football. Of course the higher you play in, the more it counts. And also how do you strength build it up?? The only one way to do that is to get as much experience of playing a official game as you can.
It's all depends on the coach who you work with, but the coach in my team likes to give young players a chance to play. Lately, I've seen them play in the same field, and they obviously make some big impacts to us game by game. It's pretty impressive and stimulating to me.
Because of their age, they could jump up to the next level much easier than I do as I can see their quick improvements with full of confidence between a game and the next game. That's what they have reminded me of recently.
On another note, I've been suffering an accumlated fatigue. It doen't really matter to me now cuz the season is nearly over, but I mean my recovery speed from the fatique like a muscle pain on my legs after every game is getting slower and slower as I get older. I know it naturally happens to everyone, but I will have to find a good way for recovery to shorten the time to back up. I do stretching at least twice a day, and go for a job to make my whole body supple. However, it's not enough. I need to take in more technical method based on advices of a physical profession.
I'm wondering how I address myself to this serions concern. Any advises??
最近になって色々と気づくことが多い。それは若い選手の成長速度の速さと、粗さ。監督は積極的にユース上がりの選手を使っているけど、シーズン始めは2軍の試合でも自信なさげにプレーしていたのが、何かのきっかけで自信を得てプレーが飛躍的に良くなること。若手を使い続けるというのは監督にとって我慢が必要だろうけど、一度波に乗ればどこまでも成長していく。
年齢を重ねると、一つ階段を上るのに時間をすごく必要とするけど、十代の選手は1週間で1段も2段も上がっていける。そういう成長を見ているのはすごく楽しいね。自分も負けれられない。
もう一つは、疲労がやっぱり取れにくくなってきているということ。まだ筋肉系のトラブルは起こっていないけど、これから調整法を全く変えないでいると、肉離れや大きな怪我につながるかもっていう危機感を最近抱いてる。試合前も、今年の後半から試合2日前から極端に練習量を落としてる。試合当日にどれだけフレッシュな状態でっていうのを考えてのことだけど、最初は練習量を落とすのに、かなり勇気がいったし、運動量が落ちるんじゃないかと不安だったけど、試合日に疲れを全く残さない方が返って限界まで走れるということに気づけたのはよかった。あとは試合後の疲労をどうやっていかに早く落とすか。何か良い方法はないだろうか。
最近は生き残るためにDFに力を入れたり、でもやっぱり前目の方がやりやすかったりと色々試行錯誤しているけど、今年は色々と良い経験ができてると前向きに捉えてるし、来季に向けてしっかり準備していきたい。
