What does PocketAthlete actually do?

You log each morning: sleep, soreness and fatigue. It scores your readiness, adjusts that day's session, and builds four-week training blocks around your sport, your position and the equipment you have.

Is it only for footballers?

No. It covers football, rugby, basketball, running, weightlifting and general gym training, with position-specific work for the team sports.

No. Tell it what you have and it programs around it. Many of the technical drills need nothing but a ball and a wall.

Can it work around an injury?

It works around soreness you log and avoids body parts you tell it to leave alone. It is general training information, not medical advice — see a physiotherapist for a diagnosis.

What it works

Legs, Core, Shoulders

How to do it

1With servers delivering from both wings, call early and loudly, attack the ball at its highest point, and take off from one foot with the lead knee up to protect yourself in a crowd.
2Catch when you can, punch decisively with two fists when you can't.
3Dominating your box kills crosses before they ever become chances, and a keeper who commands their area lifts the whole back line.

Cues that matter

›Loud, early call — command your area
›Attack the ball at its highest point
›Lead knee up to protect yourself
