The fourth week of preparation for Avimecc Volley Modica began with training this morning at “PalaMoak”.
The complete team found itself after the Sunday off and under the orders of the athletic trainer Emanuele Cappello and trained in view of the joint training sessions that from this week will see the blue-and-white team “feel” the physical condition reached on the field.
The first of the joint training sessions is with Tuna Callipo Vibo Valentia who will host the boys of coach Giancarlo D’Amico next Wednesday at the “PalaValentia”. A joint training against a team just relegated from the Super League and built to return immediately which will also serve as an experience for the young Modica roster who in turn wants to be a protagonist in the A3 series championship.
The workloads of these weeks will be decisive, but what matters at the moment is physical strength and awareness of one’s qualities.
“We have started the fourth week of preparation – explains Emanuele Cappello – and my work is still in full swing. We have worked with the boys every day since we started leaving them only on Sundays to rest. Workout in the gym will now begin to decrease to give more space to the court. The whole squad will certainly be weighed down by the amount of work they are doing, but this will be the “fuel” we will need to face the championship. We did an important job from the aerobic point of view – he continues – which, thanks to the collaboration of coach D’Amico and his deputy Distefano, we differentiated with work in the water and on the sand. As for me, there is still room for improvement on explosive strength, as we have worked a lot on maximum strength and injury prevention so far. As usual, after the club completed the roster, I contacted each individual athlete to define a “summer” program to make sure to get to the beginning of the preparation with a group as homogeneous as possible. The team has been renewed for 50% of the components and this means new bets with athletes who are recovering, but they are all guys who want to do and do well. I believe that what we have built is a good group that can give us great satisfaction – concludes the blue-white athletic trainer – and that will do everything to improve what has been done in the past seasons ”.
