Episode description

This months questions:

  1. We're back training football now 3 times a week plus maybe a challenge the weekend. I'm training hard but don't feel like I'm getting any fitter/I don't have energy during some football sessions. Should I be keeping carbs high on all days or only days of training/games? And what kind of carbs on rest days?
  2. How do I stay disciplined with the nutritional plan or find one that suits me. I fall off the wagon regularly?
  3. During the shortened season how would you recommend improving explosive power (corner back/forward initial 5m dart) during this period? Also would I better trying to improve reaction times and if so how?
