I also tested him on the 12 minute run around a football pitch and Kasim got 11 laps which is just a bit below the average of a footballer.
I also tested kasim on the shuttle run and he just achieved average level .
He was also put through his paces on the agility test and he managed to complete the circuit in 15.5 seconds.
This is an table of his results;-
This is what I told kasim to do;-
As the table shows there is a slight improvement in Kasim’s performances. There is only a small differences but I didn’t expect there to be a huge change. This gives me the impression that if Kasim kept on following my training programme for a longer time there would be a bigger change.
My second player is Thayyab Siddique and he is a pacy centre forward but I will be trying to improve his muscular strength. His age is 28. I will make him do a series of fitness tests to see what level he is on now and after the two weeks he will do them again and then I will compare the results and see weather there is an improvement. I know that the improvement will not be huge because the time limit is very short but my aim is to have some effect.
These are his previous results;-
This is what I told thayyab to do during the two weeks ;-
After following this regime for 2 weeks it is clear that there is a slight improvement in Thayyab’s strength and that shows that if he carried on then there would be a bigger improvement. I must also ensure that Thayyab has suitable gaps to regain his energy and that’s the reason why I have gave him Sunday off from any training. Everyday Thayyab should feel muscle fatigue due to the hard schedule he will be undertaking.
