Recovery should not be overlooked. It should actively be a part of any training program. In this video series, director of sports performance at Villanova, Kevin Miller, will provide recovery exercises and routines that you can add to your training program. These routines can be performed on your off days as a recovery session but can also be performed as pre-workout warm ups. Kevin will also focus on mobility in these videos. Mobility is important to all sports but is significant in soccer as players need to be able to constantly change direction, stretch, jump, tackle, accelerate, decelerate... etc. Mobility exercises will help reduce the risk of injury and will make you a more well-rounded athlete.
