[@Dudleye]

Man, it's so dope to see other professional athletes with a KZbin channel. I'm a basketball player and I really enjoyed this video. During my off season, I often train with soccer teams because, it's different than being on the court all year long and you guys are in PHENOMENAL shape!

[@omalone1169]

05:40 no evidence it works ?

Great video content! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Chiveard Home Schooling Framework (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a smashing exclusive product for improving your soccer skills minus the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my cousin after a lifetime of fighting got cool success with it.

[@damiancasanova3236]

example of a disciplined professional soccer player

Never clicked so fast! Thank you for motivating me!!! (yes it is late after the vid was live but was away. I was here before 50 views... xD)

[@RahulSingh-ck6zd]

Another great video, thx man🙌. Matt, I think you should do a video about how a soccer player should plan his/her gym routine and the vital components of it. It will be much appreciated if you do so. Thanks and goodluck for your trial!

[@charlesgiordano5019]

looking sharp👏🏻👏🏻

[@James-dq9ku]

Good luck with the trial

[@michellefrench2124]

Can you do some videos where you show us your at home stretch routine and foam rolling? Thanks!

[@pratikhosmani3665]

Just wanna see the best for you bro⚽️🙏🏽

[@aaryngabriel515]

This really really helped me! I play for fusion ecnl 06😁I really am passionate with the game

[@YoMyKnee]

Do your plyos before the cardio! They are the most effective when youre 100% fresh since they are meant to be max effort

[@ricreusaurelius4163]

Bro, those kick-up exercises are 🔥

[@akshah7643]

Respect bro what u are doing. Hopefully u will be pro soon.

[@kianmurdin7591]

Good video hope you do good in your trial

[@m2coy]

love that view outside!

[@gmaiaswbellnet]

Great vibes.

[@ajdeleon948]

for cleats if you want to break them in quick, stuff them in with socks and leave em there until you use them, i do that with every pair i buy and when i first wear them they’re like 75% broken in

[@exceedinc]

Crazy fitness !

[@unknown-xm9ue]

Could you make a video on what your eating leading upto trial day

[@Looksordeath]

big man I think it would be the same as every other day, real healthy food with lots of fruit, protein, whole grain carbs and vegetables. Their is no secret!

[@gmaiaswbellnet]

Will do this tomorrow.

[@eirikurornbeck9147]

Im going to try you’re work out it sounds very good so yeah

[@smssyedmohammedshah]

A unique music while juggling today!!!

[@tennis21000]

Matt - If you could have Mimi video you / other players during scrimmages at the trial that would be cool. Not sure if that is authorized though or she'll be available but that would be cool to see some of the game play during. Either way will be cool to hear about the trial.

[@hazardgaming8516]

U are too gooooood man

[@bjornbogigunason1598]

Nice vid bro

[@smssyedmohammedshah]

Can you please show a workout for strengthening these little muscles which most people ignore, for example, the Groin, Iliopsoas, adductor and all

[@JfaJosephR9]

MOHAMMED SHAH Barbell Squats, Bulgarian Split squats hip thrusts and deadlifts on a seperate day all amazing for legs

[@smssyedmohammedshah]

@@JfaJosephR9 Nah bro u didnt get me, Im talking about targeting these small muscles directly, I know they grow strong with these exercises but the leg over all develops with these exercises, I was asking about the exercise like Glute medicine ball Squeezes and all which specifically target these small muscles separately.

[@sahilganie8219]

I had a request to make. If you could make a video on midfielders that would help me a lot

[@user-mi3iy8sb1n]

Hey Sheldon much respect with the work you are putting in to master your craft. I was just wondering if you had any tips when trying out for a team in the US. Im no athlete but a good friend of mine who has had a career playing goalie in the Korean league both 1st and 2nd division has been recently scouted by a team for the ULS?(Im assuming its the 2nd leg of MLS)out in Reno, Nevada. Hes going to be flying out in a couple of weeks for a try out. As far as I know my friend doesnt speak English well so Im thinking theres going to be a slight language barrier but other than that is there anything he might need to know or be prepared for to help him leave a good impression not just inside the pitch with the tryouts but outside as well. Thanks in advance!

[@afnanhisyamhussin2589]

Good luck for your trial

[@BecomeElite]

afnan hisyam hussin Thank you!

[@dansbling]

Great video thank you. Whats the incline for this workout?

[@georgetulman5716]

I love your vids

[@johnnyinez6771]

Looking really sharp Matt! Keep it up , nothing good vibes here.

[@tobiasnyika8935]

3 years and l am still learning from the great 🫡

[@dimitriss3635]

I thought my cardio sucked but I did that John Terry cardio workout and I got through it easily

[@johnferreira885]

I hope it's a team near me so I can watch you play in the season .

[@divyansh6574]

Great video matt, i focus a lot on cardio workouts 😎

[@olavfaren8020]

How many times a week did u do this to improve that good and for how many weeks? Keep it up BOSS!

[@gilzuniga1808]

This is awesome, after turning 28 my body started breaking down because I never focused on smaller, stabilizing muscle groups. I've been out for almost 11 months with a herniated disc, and will try this as soon as I can exercise again. Coming back from this will be very tough mentally, at almost 30 years old I am hopeful to play again, alas not at an elite level.

[@bitcoinmining6361]

I am 40, and come back from 3 torn ligaments in 1 knee. Smoked 26 years, 8 years not playing, lost 20 stone and have got back to fitness to play low spanish league football. So no excuses ;) Good luck

[@alessandromereu2106]

I like your videos bro, I wish to born in usa to get more chance to play pro, anyway, I try the john terry cardio, is work very well, but a question is once you can do up to 20 sprints and you still feel very fresh and good, your suggestion is keep sprinting until you tired, increase the speed,or increase the incline?

[@miguelferreira9190]

How many times per week do you do this cardio session pre preseason

[@a.a5938]

Come to Sweden! I think you could play in the first/second league here!

[@rylandwhitaker2183]

Powerbull King it’s not just the league. It’s also the work visa to get over there.

[@zr1836]

I swear professional clubs overlook the mental health of players, their work ethic and how far they are willing to go to develop and evolve their game. For example, Ousmane Dembele, Mesut Ozil, great players, i like both of them a lot, but they rely mostly on raw talent which is through the roof and elite but still, its just one part of you as a player. You need to work on yourself all the time, physicaly, mentally, tactically.. Matt doesnt have the raw talent of the two, but his strenght is in his will. GOOD LUCK MATT!

[@L3OS27]

Exactly they focuse so much on physical instead of acual Talent and creativity

[@jakegoodman2392]

You’re extremely naive if you think Dembele and Ozil are where they’re at because of their raw talent. You don’t just magically become as good as them withoututting in an extreme amount of hard work. Also, do you know either of them personally? No... So there’s no way for you to know how hard they work

[@jmike1197]

Ahnaf Shahriar lmao

[@zr1836]

@@jakegoodman2392 His weak foot, tactical instability, work rate on the pitch, overall inconsistency and his body language leads me to think that Mesut isnt putting in enough work to keep up with the elite opposition he is facing every couple of days. He was a superstar in Madrid and now he is warming the bench at Arsenal, how is that? He didnt work on his weaknesses enough, he couldnt adapt to a new coach and that's his problem. Dembele has a video game addiction that almost made Barca sell him, he had other psychological problems and I think someone who was paid 100mil $ should concentrate more on his job rather than playing games the whole night prior to a training. And yes, one of my friends played with Mesut in Bremen and knows him really well.

[@theperfectpitch7774]

If you read the f2 freestylers book you would know that during a interview Ozil said from age ten he practiced 8 hrs a day. Stop talking about things you have no idea abt.

[@adwitiyaprakhar3561]

Hey man, a fan from India. I really hope that you pass this trial😘

[@abbashabib4513]

You’re a great footballer Matt

[@christopherhernandez3665]

[@MarkoCurak]

You can buy your old green vapors on ProDirect

[@charlesgiordano5019]

if you need to break in your boots faster, try putting the upper in hot water to soften it

[@fifafunnymoments6736]

My coach wants us to do 35 seconds sprint 35 rest for 15 times. I’ve tried it a few times now and I’m starting to consider if it’s even possible.

[@mikopau5612]

Where do you get all your routines? I don’t ever see personal trainers

[@LNV-by8gw]

[@ahmedfiraol]

Matt at my school football team workouts twice a week. Do you recommend me workout with them or just keep focusing on developing soccer skills every day? I'm 16

[@BrianMasseyRealEstate]

Use the hot-water trick if you have to. Definitely want to make sure you have a solid 2 pairs of boots ready as you already know. Boots aren’t cheap of course in case the hot-water trick isn’t good for the durability of the boots, but if that would be the difference between being successful in the trial versus not, then do it. 💪🏼

[@Kingshal11]

Quick question: Do you feel more comfortable being much more involved in the professional arena with more opportunities than you did a year ago when you were struggling with your injury and in New Zealand? Or is it the same amount of stress?

[@bazzy6070]

Who wants to hear Matt’s playlist

[@simondykman]

Me

[@joegarcia140]

Try the hot water trick for new boots, wear them after you soaked the boots and you will be ready mate. Good luck

Are those plyometrics for older players or can I use them to build muscle and strength for speed
