The winter break in the Slovenian national championship began for the Dragons after the match of the 18th round of the Telemach First League, on December 7th. Until the return to joint training, which is planned with a joint dinner on January 9th, Federico Bessone’s players have been training daily according to an individual program since Saturday, December 20th. <\/p>\n
More about the work during the break was explained by the Dragons’ conditioning coach Ivan Zori\u0107, who is entering his sixth winter preparation with the current national champions: \u201cIn professional sports, daily care for the body is crucial. With the development of technology, we have reached a point where athletes have access to adequate professional support practically everywhere. We also follow this at Olimpija, as we use special digital platforms for remote monitoring of physical loads and the ongoing preparation of training content.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOlimpija’s players are preparing for the winter part of the preparations in three parts. First, they had a ten-day passive break, which allowed the body to regenerate sufficiently after half the season. This was followed by a five-day active break, which included a club program with work from home. The third and most intensive part is represented by running exercises with a high rhythm, to which strength exercises are gradually added. These will provide the players with a good base before returning to Ljubljana, when the introductory measurements will be taken. All completed activities are regularly recorded by the players and are accessible to the professional staff.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe goal of the individual program is to allow players enough time to adapt to the greatest efforts and at the same time prevent and reduce the risk of possible injuries. The shorter winter preparation cycle in January does not allow much time for individual work, so Olimpija also uses free days during the competitive break for this purpose,\u201d concluded Zori\u0107.<\/p>\n
After the introductory week in Ljubljana, the main part of NK Olimpija’s winter preparations will take place in Spain, where Federico Bessone’s players will spend ten days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
