Now, this is an interesting one. After years of Lactate testing and 6MRT time trials under Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot, respectively, Andoni Iraola is doing things differently during pre-season testing at Liverpool. Normally, most clubs use tests like the Yo-Yo, a 1600m continuous run, the 2K Test, a... show more

How do you know what Slot/Klopp did during training? Did they give you proprietary player data or are you just making stuff up for engagement and free marketing. Let's see if @LFC are happy with doing this...

Interesting approach. The test seems connected to how the team wants to play, not fitness alone. For a high-intensity team, it can show how players handle repeated runs, direction changes and recovery. The key is how coaches use the results for each player.

Trey has bulked up 💪

Do the 30 second intervals the coach mentions not just refer to the fact that the 2nd player goes 30 seconds after the 1st player, and so on? Or are you getting the 30 second time limit per quarter from somewhere else?

Nope, because later in the video, you can hear the coaches counting down the 30 seconds as the players approach the end point of the final interval

I can’t hear that mate - can hear a shout of “5 seconds left” at one point, but other than that I just hear the coach saying at the beginning “go at 30 second intervals”. But will take your word for it.

Longer video on the club’s YouTube channel

Got you. I assumed you were getting that info from somewhere else as I couldn’t see it in the video you posted. Could prob work out the rough distance they need to cover in the 2 mins at some point, but considering the shuttling/turning etc that seems pretty quick.

What’s the rest time between runs

It seems to be one continuous run where- the 4 intervals have to be completed in 30 seconds.

Very interesting

I would be curious how you see this activity measures testing the players' aerobic power, agility, change of direction, running economy, and recovery from repeated changes in pace as the video doesn’t demonstrate that

Surely the way to go.
