[@richsullivan1950]

Great as always Tony, recovery is so key for any sport to be at your best. Thanks for concentrating on the essentials rather than the flashy stuff

[@thefootballfolk]

Thanks Rich 🧡🧡🧡 It’s the simple stuff that really matters😁

[@orionold]

The quality and effort in your videos deserves so much more than this. Am astonished that you are not one of the best football channels already. Hope the best.

As always really appreciate the videos ❤They are always top-quality and the production value is so much higher than any other footballing KZbin channels (at least, the ones that I know of). I'm really impressed by the effort you put into your cinematography, the angels you choose and all the little editing details. It's an absolute joy to watch! Of course, the content of the videos are also always excellent 😄

This channel, I know I am speaking for myself but, I love it, touches simply all points of the video, the edits are the best... I've really learned and improved in the art of football. Keep this up man! (P.S.: can you do a video explaining how different angles of the ball and our foot affects our shooting/passing accuracy?)

[@thefootballfolk]

Thanks so much mate! I loved reading this comment! I have a bunch of shooting videos that might be helpful. But I’ll add this one to the list too 👍👍

[@JeagerCrew]

Can you make a video on positioning oneself on the field and also dribbling basics and how to improve dribbling while running please?

[@anakbandel00]

Very good stuff

[@NickJagoQPR]

I know that the warm down is really important, and I’m always the one in my team that insists on a few gentle laps and stretches after the game. But we are also over 35s, with kids and jobs, which makes it a real tough proposition to dedicate the time to it. So most of us just down a can of beer (cold) and have a curry (hot) as our version of this routine 😂. Also really enjoy the way this channel looks at things - in depth, easy to understand, always with the game in mind. Have recommended to the U9 team I’m coaching because they are representative level and some stand a chance of making it - they can really benefit from this advice in the long run (and not become inflexible slow plodders like I am now 😅)

[@thefootballfolk]

Thanks Nick!! 😂 So true! Luckily for me I don’t have those same commitments atm 😳 Having said that, I’ve heard that a beer or 2 replaces the need to stretch and stuff, so I think you’re on to something 😉👍

[@LikaMatt988]

I always just assumed that in recovery days, you would try to spare your legs as much as possible from any movement to "save" them for the next game😅 I've only recently found out about active recovery. Great video! Very informative, and I will surely apply these tips!

[@thefootballfolk]

Love it mate! We’ve all been there 😂

[@Bryan-cm4um]

Amazing as always Tony. As a comment on a video of yours once said, I feel like I’m improving in just a few hours watching your videos. I’ve been playing football for a bit and one weakness that I have is 1v1. I was wondering if you could do a video on 1v1 please 🙏. I hope it could be a video that’s on your list one day. In the meantime, are there any tips you can give to improve? Thanks in advance 🙏

[@thefootballfolk]

Thanks so much Bryan, this is awesome to hear 🧡 It’s on the list for sure. In the mean time, I’d recommend slowing the ball down on approach, getting somewhat close, and changing the pace and direction of the ball when they lunge in. Bit more too it than that, but give it a crack 😁

[@gentrexha7]

Love the vid! Appreciate the insights! I'd love your thoughts on my current situation: Team Practice on Wednesdays, 4v4 futsal for fun/improving on Tuesdays and league matches on Saturday/Sunday. I'm trying to fit in at least 2-3x week strength trainings, 1x week stamina/up-hill runs training, 1-2x week solo practice, and 1x week foam rolling/core training into my week but don't know the optimal routine/setup for that. Or, if it's too much and I should de-prioritize anything. Any suggestions? Thanks!

[@thefootballfolk]

I love the dedication mate! That’s awesome! It sounds like a very balanced week to be fair. I would maybe look to add more stretching and foam rolling to your schedule 👍 But that’s it really

[@gentrexha7]

Thanks! Unfortunately I’m having a hard time fitting everything in without injury. Therefore, I was curious if you’d think it’s too much or what would be least worth doing?

[@unstoppablegaming7347]

Thanks mate. If it’s your eyes, it might be worth getting them checked. If it’s registering what’s going on.. it’s just down to practice really

[@amazighrif-qw1bd]

Hello, I am 8 years old and I really like your channel. Can you tell me which training courses are most important for me so that I can become very good? The key points that I need to train to become very good because there are so many videos on KZbin but I'm confused, maybe you have a whole training with the key points, thank you very much

[@thefootballfolk]

Glad to have you here mate! I recently launched a training program that focuses on the fundamentals (mastering the basics) - you can check out the details on my website, here: www.footballfolk.com Alternatively a lot of the videos I have on this channel will support with your development - just keep up the focus and practice, and you’ll progress 🧡

[@JonHoba-n5p]

Stretching id bad for your muscles resd into it

[@j4n.066]

What should I do If I have team training the day after the game?

[@j4n.066]

In addition to that, I have heard that if you stretch after a exhausting game that this increases your time needed to recover your body. Is this true or not?

[@thefootballfolk]

I’d focus on your evening recovery, take it easy, and ease into your training session. Hopefully your coach is aware of the recovery needed? I’ve not experienced the increased time in recovery tbh. I’ve tried both, many times, and I always feel so much better after I’ve stretched. Clients do too. I hope that helps

[@j4n.066]

Thank you for your answer, yes that helps! I think my coach is aware of the recovery but maybe not quite as much as he should be. We sometimes do some stretching and/or recovery with a black role in the team training the day after the game. But I‘ll just try to train as hard as my body feels comfortable with and try to listen to my body, then it will surely work.

Is this the lawn bowls you’re referring to? If so, it’s a dynamic calf and hamstring stretch. Important to tilt your hips back & keep your back as straight as possible for the full effect

I can guarantee not a single high level player goes running laps after the match,just go home eat sleep and that should be 99 percent of your recovery,the streches and cold showers help,but u should overanalyze your recovery,just focus on sleep and good nutrition.

[@thefootballfolk]

I agree. Probably not a good idea to run laps. But decompressing, stretching and preparing your body for the off day is absolutely essential!
