How to Measure the Peak Height Velocity of a Football Player Doing Football

leave a comment »

You can measure the peak height velocity of a football player by taking the football player’s height measurement each month. By seeing how this changes over time, you will be able to identify when they hit their peak growth spurt. This is an indicator that their training needs to be adapted to accommodate their growth, and once the growth spurt is finished their body is ready for different types of training.

Try This: I recommend using a Free Football Training-Log to track your football workouts.
