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

Whole body

How to do it

1From close range with a rebounder or a rapid server, take six to ten quick serves with your hands ready at hip height and your body big.
2React to the ball itself, not the server's arm.
3Critically, recover to your feet immediately after every save to deal with the second ball — the rebound is where most close-range goals actually come from.
4Take full rest between sets so quality stays high.

Cues that matter

›React to the ball, not the server
›Stay big — hands ready at hip height
›Recover to your feet fast for the second ball
