BUFFALO STATE MEN’S SOCCER SUMMER WORKOUT 2014

Dear 2014 Buffalo State Men’s Soccer Pre‐season invitees,

I hope this finds you all doing well. For those of you in high school, I
congratulate you on your impeding graduation and all of the accomplishments
you have achieved in your high school careers. For those of you returning or
transferring, well done on the completion of another year.

The fall of 2014 will be my second year with the Buffalo State men’s soccer
program and I am excited and anticipate another great year, as long as we are
all prepared for the season both physically and mentally. In this packet is the
summer work‐out program that I expect everyone to follow. Our goal of
taking this program to the next level is attainable. In order to do so, I do not
want to spend all of pre‐season working on fitness. Instead, I would like to
work on things such as our approach tactically to games that cannot be done
individually throughout the summer. We only have a short window of
opportunity to get ready, let’s not waste it!!! The best way to make a great
first impression is to be in the best shape of your life. I CANNOT STRESS
THIS ENOUGH!

I want to first remind everyone who is receiving this packet, that pre‐season is
still a TRY‐OUT period. You are not insured of a starting position and if you do
not pass the fitness testing you may be removed from the roster. Pre-season is a
time to showcase yourselves; your skills on the field, your personality and work
ethic, and the things that you possess that could make you an asset to the
program. You have been given this opportunity because I truly believe that you
have the above traits, but I am looking for the complete package…meaning that
you can be a great player who works hard, but if you come into pre‐season
unfit, or with a bad attitude you WILL be in danger of not making the team.

The summer work‐out program begins the week of May 26th, so make sure you
look over this plan immediately so you know what you are going to be doing!
Make sure to print off a copy of this program so you have it with you, and
record times and workouts so you can track your progress.

You will also be receiving a CD in the mail from me in the near future. The CD
will contain the audio track for the “Beep Test”. Preparation is VITAL!!

Please keep in touch over the summer and let me know how you are doing! Any
questions please let me know! Good luck men!

Coach Howlett
“Failing to plan is planning to fail”

P.S – One suggestion I have is to mark your training days on a calendar,


everyday you complete cross it off, if you do not complete the training that day
don’t cross it off – it works!!!

Men’s Soccer Summer Fitness Testing 2014


Beep Test

Procedure: This test involves continuous running between two lines 20m
apart in time to recorded beeps. Stand behind one of the lines facing the
second line, and begin running when instructed by the cd. The speed at
the start is quite slow. Continue running between the two lines, turning
when signaled by the recorded beeps. After about one minute, a sound
indicates an increase in speed, and the beeps will be closer together. This
continues each minute (level). If the line is not reached in time for each
beep, you must run to the line turn and try to catch up with the pace
within 1 more ‘beep’. Also, if the line is reached before the beep sounds,
you must wait until the beep sounds. The test is stopped if you fail to
reach the line for two consecutive ends.

Target: Level 16

300 Yard Sprit Test

Procedure: Cones are placed 25 yards apart to indicate the sprint


distance. Start with a foot on one line. When instructed by the timer, you
will run to the opposite 25-yard line, touch it with your foot, turn and
run back to the start. This is repeated six times without stopping
(covering 300 yards total). After a rest of 2 minutes, the test is repeated
(3 times total).

Target: Under a combined score of 60 seconds

Push Up Test

Procedure: A standard push up begins with the hands and toes touching
the floor, the body and legs in a straight line, feet slightly apart, the arms
at shoulder width apart, extended and at a right angle to the body.
Keeping the back and knees straight, you lower your body to a
predetermined point, to touch some other object, or until there is a 90-
degree angle at the elbows, then returns back to the starting position
with the arms extended. This action is repeated for 60 seconds.

Target: 65 Push-Ups

 
BUFFALO STATE MEN’S SOCCER SUMMER WORKOUT 2014

Sit Up Test

Procedure: You will lie on a surface with knees flexed and feet
approximately 12 inches from your butt. A partner assists by anchoring
the feet to the ground. The arms are held flat across your chest, with the
hands placed on opposite shoulders. You raise the trunk, keeping the
arms in position, curling up to touch your elbows to thighs and then
lowers back to the floor so that the shoulder blades (upper back) touch
the floor. The maximum number of sit-ups performed in one minute is
recorded.

Target: 70 Sit-Ups

Sprint Test

Procedure: The test involves running a single maximum sprint over 20


yards. The starting position should be standardized, starting from a
stationary position with a foot behind the starting line, with no rocking
movements. You will need to have a partner with a stopwatch to time
you.

Vertical Jump Test

Procedure: the athlete stands side on to a wall and reaches up with the
hand closest to the wall. Keeping the feet flat on the ground, the point of
the fingertips is marked or recorded. This is called the standing reach
height. The athlete then stands away from the wall, and leaps vertically
as high as possible using both arms and legs to assist in projecting the
body upwards. Attempt to touch the wall at the highest point of the
jump. The difference in distance between the standing reach height and
the jump height is the score. The best of three attempts is recorded.
