This book is the first volume of a three-volume work that focuses on the programming of football training during the competitive season. This work follows up on the book "Preparation in Professional Football," which was published in 2016.

A complete daily training plan for the first 12 weeks of the competitive season is provided. For each day, an overview of the training program for the entire team is presented (for both players with high energy expenditure and those with low energy expenditure or who are behind in physical condition).

For each exercise integrated into the program, there is a detailed description and a color diagram so that the reader-coach can fully understand and implement it immediately.

The structure of the annual plan follows the competitive schedule that professional football teams adhere to in the Super League, Football League, and National Third Division, allowing coaches and fitness coordinators (trainers) to apply the training plan proposed by the book with the appropriate adjustments.

The training plan can also be applied to amateur teams, adapted to the needs and training of teams participating in local leagues. It is important to emphasize that the plan and the exercise program provided is not a “theoretical exercise” but the result of long-term experience on the benches of professional football teams, as well as extensive study of the methods and programs followed by football clubs in Europe.
