  • Summary

  • In this episode, I analyze with Derby goalkeeper Josh Vickers the importance of sleep for recovery and optimal performance, including the effects of match results, game timings, training loads, and arousal levels on sleep patterns. We also cover current guidelines and research on sleep duration, quality, and the potential benefits of napping in reducing fatigue and enhancing physical and cognitive performance.

    Furthermore, we delve into the typical training week for a professional footballer, including the preparation and processes undertaken by clubs leading up to games, such as opponent and match analysis for tactical advantage. Additionally, we explore the individual training and conditioning routines specific to goalkeepers.
