Seeing that of April 30th, Essendon have a personal injury list of 15 deep. Of the 15 accidental injuries 7 are outlined as "hamstring". fitness supplement pulled a hammy excuse" heard in many a country football club change rooms is certainly a case of truth for the Bombers right now. There has been a substantial amount of publicity on this topic, mainly because they hired a new strength and conditioning coach Dean Robinson who offers has past achievement with the Geelong premiership teams. The man obviously knows his shit however the query remains, why all the injuries and may they have been avoided? Now from where I stand, when you have your greatest players from the park, you're a chance to win every video game. As a strength and condoning coach and an individual trainer, my #1 1 goal isn't injure your client for 2 reasons. This puts my #1 1 priority squarely on preventing injuries before they occur.


The big talk has been about how exactly Essendon and in particular coach James Hird and Dean Robinson, have continued to train at a high volume from the pre time of year right through to today where other teams may provide some extra time off early in the season to combat game soreness and playing period loads so as not peak too early or have players do more work they are capable of at this time of their fitness. Overtraining is normally term used much too very much in sport and schooling of all kinds. Only professional sportsmen will even possess a sniff of a potential for overtraining, everyone else under recovers through normal nutritional and sleeping practices. Do you really think those 10 cans of beer no dinner after a game on a Saturday is helping your recovery? So here are some idea's on what I think might be the cause of this, considering I've no idea what their teaching regime was, is usually or will be. There has also been a whole lot of chat of the larger bodies putting more strain on the players bodies thus causing these injuries.


I don't trust this fully because they would have been jogging while they were putting on the added fat and for that reason their bodies would have adjusted to the added mass, and learnt to "work with it". Why wasn't there many accidental injuries during the pre season, when running volume is at it's highest? Players from all teams put on weight during the off season and prevent injuries so this isn't a definitive excuse. I gained 7 or 8kgs one off season which at the time was a 10 - 15% fat gain. Granted I was stick at a great elevation of 168cms but relatively, it is actually more then these Esseond players. As observed above overtraining is quite real, but only for elite sports athletes and I class AFL players in the elite of the elite. There is simply no various other activity on the planet that covers as much strength and fitness parts as AFL.


Professionals train everyday, hard, everyday. Their body steadily condition themselves to take care of the extra stress that's put on them. If you have previously lifted 100kgs on the deadlift, then the body will "arranged itself" at an increased level in case you try to lift a heavier pounds. Basically it can this through increased nervous program activation and coordination aswell increasing muscle cross sectional area to handle the heavier loads positioned on them in the future. With the common age of AFL groups being about 22 years old, which means players are getting thrown into the rigours of AFL soccer at 18 and expected to become at their peak, or at least close to in 4 years. Right now I am not really convinced that Essendon have overtrained their players in the true sense because if you are truly overtrained you should actually get sick, lose motivation which would be more then obvious in virtually any training sessions you would do before the game. Teams are actually spending up more then ever to analyse player training and playing volume to be sure that they can recover to 100% the moment they can.
