Manchester United players and be recognised as the

most consistently successful Club in the Premier

League

Objective

To Create an environment that promotes total quality,

attention to detail and a winning mentality in every

single facet of athletic Performance.

Page 4: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

• Understand the Performance environment – What is it?

– The way we do things round here

• Results driven – “Quick Wins”

• Performance sport is about risk management

• Training environment

• Evidence based practice & methodology

• Elite athletes are about being different – exceptions to the rule

• Implementation based on knowledge / experience / insight – art & science

Performance Culture

Page 5: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

• Understand the coaching process.

• Understand the training process.

• Attention to Detail.

• Resources – manpower.

• Focus on what really makes a difference.

• Be Individual in Approach.

• Look for trends – potential for effect.

• Feedback Driven – empower athlete with knowledge.

By analytics we mean the extensive use of data, statistical and quantitative

analysis, explanatory and predictive models, and fact based

management to drive decisions and actions. The analytics may be input

for human decisions or may drive fully automated decisions. Analytics

are a subset of what has come to be called Performance Intelligence –

a set of technologies and processes that use data to understand and

analyse team performance.

Performance Intelligence and Analytics

Page 15: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

Analysis of Performance

• Performance expressed in terms of result, time, score, position etc.

• Performance has a number of component parts;

– Technique, physical, tactical, strategic, event related, psychological

– Equipment, medical, social

• Coaches ensure explanations for performance couched in stable controllable

factors (tactics, fitness) rather than unstable factors (opposition tactics,

physical condition.

• Integral to coaching process.

• Doubled amount of high intensity runs

• Sprint distance increased by 60%

• Top speed achieved up to 9.7 m/s

ProZone – Premier League

Physical performance continues to speed up

Analysis of Performance

Page 18: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

• The competition framework determined by success in cup competitions and

is therefore difficult to predict.

• Competition scheduling very significant on planning and periodising the

yearly programme.

• Preparation for competition programme involves a full range of activities;

– Recovery

– Strategy discussions

– Individual preparation

– Rehearsal

– Training

• Obtain physiological measures during match-play and

Training.

• Determine the physical capacity of elite players.

• Determine readiness to perform (freshness).

• Integration of sophisticated technology:

– Heart Rate Telemetry

– Prozone Analysis.

– Global Positioning Satellite.

– Accelerometers.

– Power Output.

– SmartSpeed.

Quantifying Work Loads (G.P.S.)

• Global Positioning Satellite (GPS).

• Small device worn on athlete’s back.

• Searches for satellites to determine position.

• Records position, time, body movements, impacts and heart rate continuously.

• Cutting edge technology for work loads.

• Identify performance trends, over or under training or stagnation.

Page 26: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

Physical Loading – Elite Sport Issues

• Too much volume / too little intensity / insufficient recovery.

• Heart rate response is not total picture of sport/game

requirements.

• Load isn’t just cardiovascular.

• Mechanical - Muscular

– Concentric

– Eccentric

• Neurological

Page 27: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes
Page 28: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

Technology Solution

• Objective Quantification Workload:

• Body Load

– G-Forces

– Daily/weekly totals

– Recovery time / load volumes.

• Impact Load

– Number of contacts

– Impacts/min

Page 29: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

• Marked in injuries

• Junior athletes - performance output logged for comparison with senior players.

• Reflection of how advanced the junior player is compared to senior counterpart

• Recent suggestion that the best indicator of future senior football success maybe performance output during match-play with testing being much less indicative

Physical Loading

Page 30: Physical Preparation of Elite Athletes

• Using this to measure total loading results in a much better planning of future training loads and intensities

• Coach is better able to periodise an athletes training programme for physical and skill related activities

• Des Hasler (Manly Sea Eagles Rugby League)

• % Loading to each session

– 25% Neurological

– 55% Cardiovascular

– 20% Musculoskeletal

Individualisation

• Understanding the demands of match-play.

• Developing player profiles to understand injury risks.

• Managing risks on a team and individual basis using pro-active monitoring and

intervention.

• Implementation of preventative strategies:

• Manipulating the demands of training, playing load and individualising recovery

• Specific practices to decrease likelihood of injury:

• Functional Movement Assessment

• S & C Impact Model – Identification of physical strengths & weaknesses and

individualised off-field conditioning approach.

• Activation / Warm-Up
