Introduction
Football is a game loved by many. There are many types of football fans, and each of them has its own viewpoint on this game. For example, some simply like the game, but do not play football, and others are not only enjoying this sport while watching the matches, but they are also spending hours outside practising it. Still, not all are good at it, and thus they need some advice in order to improve a bit their technique. If you are interested in what you can do in order to play football better, you will find in the following paragraphs tips that may change your style or confirm you that you are doing a great job. Due to the fact that football is a demanding sport, the main pointers refer to training and having a better physical condition.
Step 1
1. Running is a great way of maintaining your condition when you play football. However, if you do not have a proper routine and you run without knowing how, you may not get good results at all, and moreover you could even draw back. For people who play football, running 3 miles per day is almost compulsory. But knowing the distance is not enough. In order to be stronger and fitter, you should run upward as much as possible. After you have run 2 miles, find a steep hill and sprint between 20 and 30 metres; then walk downhill. Repeat this 5 times and you will start to see results. You will be able to play football better than ever.
Step 2
2. Do as many exercises as you can at football play. Start improving your condition by developing your muscles. You can start with sit-ups, crunches, squats and other exercises that will increase your strength. Before you start doing any type of exercise make sure that you have stretched and warmed-up in order to prevent any possible injuries. Once you have decided on a certain way of working out, do not quit it and be self-conscious.
Step 3
3. Learn how to use both feet. Most people who play football are handling the ball better with one foot than the other. It is not a crucial thing, but continuing this way you will not improve your skills. Try to focus more on your weaker foot and do not give up until you are able to control its movements. This will help you be a much better player because no matter what situation you will encounter when you play football, you will manage to front it.
Step 4
4. Try to develop new tricks. In this case you need to use your imagination and create new moves. First, discover what kind of situations put you into a difficult position and after that try to imagine a scheme that may help you deal with that certain instance. If your trick works, then spend at least 10 minutes per day practising.
Step 5
5. Copy the best. This may sound awkward to you, but many do it. Look at the way your favourite sportsman play football and try to imitate him. Of course, your favourite player may not have the same position as you, and in that case you should follow someone who has. Do not be disappointed if you do not manage to do the same moves, but if you really want to be a great football player do your best to improve.
