Check out the new A.F.P.P. update on the A.F.P.P. link.
Hydrotherapy For Quick Recovery
Getting all bubbly with hydrotherapy is a great way to relax sore muscles and increase recovery times for all levels of sports. Teams such as the Philadelphia Eagles to the San Antonio Spurs have utilised hydrotherapy to reduce injury and help promote recovery.
Respiratory Muscle Training: Increase Respiratory Performance For Competitive Goalkeepers
Get huge muscles! Respiratory muscles that is. Increasing the oxidative capacity of the lungs can really help boost performance in competitive athletes.
Psyche It Up: Sports Physcology For A Mental Goalkeeper Edge
Nothing is more important than the mind. Some may vouch for the heart in being the big winner when it comes to great sports performance, but to truly excel in any field, the noggin has to be on right! Mental cues and visualisation are just a few of the many techniques that a sports psychologist can administer to help you get out of the sporting rut.
Release The Chi, For Better Goalkeeping Performance
Now grasshopper, if you can snatch the pebble from my hand...I love Chinese medicine, its martial arts and its food! Now acupuncture has been around for around 5000 years and the World Health Organization has recognized its benefits in treating over 43 different illnesses including healing sports injuries.

Goalkeeper Fitness: Pump It Up In The Privacy Of Your Own Home, PART I.
y partner and I have been moving into a new place over the weekend, so excuse me for the delay in posts, it has been a hectic week. Starting a new job a few months ago, I felt that it was about time to hit a gym and do my own thing to help me recuperate from injury. What else could I want, a world renowned gym with all the latest facilities, that was around the corner from work. But I've found that it is not really all that it is cracked up to be.
RPE: Intensity Measurements For Active Goalkeepers
It's a taxing thing being a goalkeeper. Has your goalkeeper trainer ever asked you about your Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE)? No. Well, using RPE could well help trainers understand what level of intensity a goalkeeper is training at, and also help curb fatigue and overtraining.
Nano Technology for Super Goalkeepers?
Nano particles are super tiny and extremely efficient biological and biomedical tools. What implications would nano technology have on weight loss or repairing joints in injured goalkeepers or athletes?
Bad Knee Day: Understanding Goalkeeper Recovery & Active Rest
It was definitely one of those days today, the type where you think nothing will go right, and then you find out that the Gods conspired against you. My knee had swollen a little too much for my liking and this is because I've been limping to and fro trying to get things done with the little one on the way, and work commitments to boot. Not a good idea! But not all is in vain.
Take a Deep Breath: Oxygen Supplements Boosting Goalkeeping Performance
Breathing in the fresh air is not some meditative fad, it is important for life itself. The body can go without food, and in some cases water for some time, but cut off the air and you can kiss your goalkeeper gloves goodbye! The oxidative capacity of athletes determines their level of performance.
Eat As The Eskimos Do, For Healthier Hearts and Better Goalkeeping Performance
That double beef burger sounds like a great alternative for a lunch time rendezvous. You'll burn it off at training you say, and you'll get a lot of great protein to boot. Good attitude to have? Not really.
Golakeepers Win With Great Desire & Mental Attitude
o you have a dream? Is it just in your mind? Or do you speak about it day and night? Does it speak to you? Or do you shut it out? Great goalkeepers (or any great athlete for that matter) can attest that without great passion, great desire and a powerful attitude, all the supplements you can shove down your gullet, all the hard training that you can muster, anything that you put into your life, cannot be achieved.
COQ10: Powering Up The Goalkeepers Energy Stores
Last night I was reading through some of my favorite books in regards to nutrition and stumbled across Coenzyme Q10. Just the name of it seemed otherworldly. What fascinated me was that Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin, and it has the ability to power up mitochondria (power stores found in your muscles).
Super Slow For Greater Goalkeeper Gains!
Sometimes taking it slow and steady can help you win the proverbial race. Goalkeepers are dynamic, and their training approach should be dynamic, right? Not necessarily. What I mean by using a super slow method of strength training, will probably differ to how you would envision it. But the name says it all.
GATTACA & Goalkeeping Don't Mix
Gene doping is fast becoming one of those double edged swords that scientists are speculating as being the new wave of performance enhancement.
