Kilian Jacquet is a 16 year old Belgian footballer. A good one. And, according to him, training Nike Football has a lot to do with it. See what a potent mixture of serious commitment and pro level conditioning can achieve. In his own words.
“I did the Nike Football training drills at home, in the garden. When I didn't have the time to do it at home - because of school, or the 4-5 training sessions a week with my club - I did the drills after the training sessions.
There were a few drills that I really liked - "High Gears", "Star Run" and "Rebound." I downloaded the PDFs of the drills and printed all of them and i just took them to the pitch in my pocket.
I can still remember very well the ‘Star Run’ effect... I got a transfer to a better club! They said that they were positively surprised by my movement without the ball, and a big reason for that is the ‘Star-Run-drill!
My volley got a lot better too. I scored a lot of goals last season, because I'm an attacking midfielder and when the ball gets headed back by an opponent, I can take the ball immediately on the volley, because I practiced it so often in the drill.
Last season I played with FC Dender, U19. I started at the U16, and when I started to train, my game went to such a high level, that they "upgraded" me to the U19, first U17, and then U19...so thanks a lot again! And next year -as I mentioned earlier in - I'll play with Zulte-Waregem.”
Good luck in the upcoming season, Kilian. But with focus like that, you won’t need much luck. The SPARQ pro-conditioning programme starts on the Nike Football Facebook page on August 17th.
Try it. It might just change your game.
