Footballers’ injury prevention doesn’t start with structured training and conditioning alone, unlike what many people believe. No matter how physically strong a football player becomes, they are still exposed to injury in different ways. This is an important point we need to understand. Sharpness, breathwork, and the ability to read and anticipate how opposition players behave—especially when going into tackles—along with knowing how to use one’s own body effectively, form the first stage of injury prevention. Structured training and conditioning come second. If strength and conditioning alone were enough, there wouldn’t be so many injuries occurring, more than what is necessary. Therefore, a football player must first develop sharpness and maintain control of their breath and mental state, no matter how heated the game becomes. I can help you in this area as a yoga teacher.
