Modular tables on the Spanish newspaper "Marca"

 The modular tables for high intensity training were created with the intention of answering in practice situations to the growing need to submit players to maximum effort intensities.

The Portuguese coach has introduced a new training method, using our modular tables for high intensity, to improve the ability to make decisions under pressure. 


The Mourinho's playground

Mourinho continues to work to optimize the performance of the team, both individually and collectively. One objective of coaching is to improve the execution speed of the players, ie, improve mental speed.
Do not play faster the one that runs more, but the first to make the right decision.

It was for this reason that the Portuguese moved to Valdebebas a working method that already is used in the lower categories of the Spanish national team at Las Rozas. This is an enclosed area on the four sides and only with the size of a large area in which Mourinho wants to keep the players.

The coach has worked in confined spaces, but the fact of closing the field definitely increases the intensity of play and forces players to multiply in the decision-making. José Mourinho believes the player decide based on habits, not random, but repetitive in game situations.

The modular tables for high intensity, can also be used to exercise pressure working with a small group of players, or improve a second move, ie, to anticipate the opponent after recovery.

Mourinho always work thinking on the next game. Wouldn't be strange that the coach would undertake some form of exercise in this area with a view to Sunday's match against Sevilla.

Mourinho used the ball in all their years to escape the monotony, and discarded when the physical work without the ball. The Portuguese coach opted for a comprehensive training covering all facets of the game, as it aims to encourage the players through different methods and tactics.

The purpose of Mourinho is that his players are able to tackle a problem that arises during the game, thanks to a high level of concentration. With this modular tables, players raise the intensity, not because of physical, but an obligation that requires the mental level. Indeed, Mourinho's methods are measured by this last parameter, not the miles or exercises that can make the player during the 90-minute session.

The Portuguese have Rui Faria, as the right arm, to develop methodology and implement the various exercises.

Since the coach started working with his players in Los Angeles, they highlighted the diversity of training and intensity. What is very grateful for the players is to never neglect the ball.
