TESTIMONIAL
"I played professionally for a number of years both in the U.S. and abroad. I currently coach at St. Joseph's College in Indiana and have used TSF as a guideline to develop a fitness manuel for the program.
Last year was my first season there and both teams had no previous training program and were clearly unfit. I like how TSF very clearly lays out the various stages of the year round fitness program, and explains the signifigance of each step.
With my experience as a player and as a fitness nut I found more truth in TSF than any other fitness manual."

TESTIMONIAL
"I bought Total soccer Fitness for my 16 year old son who is desperate to play professionally. He is very enthusiastic and took on board the principles in the book. He trains most days, either on his own or with his team and I know he is making great progress.
We don't know if he'll ever realize his dream of playing at the top level but this resource gives him the best chance!"

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is Total Soccer Fitness suitable for children?
There are now two versions of Total Soccer Fitness -- a high performance version which is suitable for physically mature players typically aged 17 - 18 and over, and a junior version which is suitable for players aged 8 - 18.
Q. I'm 17 years old. Is the junior version or high performance version more suitable for me?
Chronological age is only a guideline. Two 17 year olds can differ in their physcial developement by 2 or maybe 3 years depending on whether they were an early or late developer. The high performance version of Total Soccer Fitness is suitable for players who's bones have stopped growing. This happens when growth plates at either end of the bone ossify (meaning the cartilage turns into bone). This ossification process is not fully complete until after puberty and in some individuals it may not occur until age 18 or older. A 17 year old who is an early developer may have stopped growing but even if they have, some of the strength training routines in the high performance version are too demanding for a player of this age. If you have not completed any strength training before, the junior version is more suitable for you (just stick to the 16-18 age group recommendations). If you do have an extensive and properly planned strength training back ground you can opt for the high performance version but avoid the maximal strength training and plyometrics programs and stick to the foundational strength routines.
Q. I am a coach working with players both over and under 18 years of age. Should I get both the high performance and junior version of Total Soccer Fitness?
That's entirely up to you. They are very different and there is very little cross over in the training principles and sample sessions. We have an offer were you can buy both books for $39 rather than the $58 it would cost to buy them seperately. Simply click to order any one of the books and before you are asked to complete your order you'll be asked if you want to add the extra book for just $10 more.
Q. Who wrote the book, what are their qualifications and experience?
Phil Davies is the author of both Total Soccer Fitness and Total soccer Fitness For Juniors. You can see his profile by clicking here or send him a specific question by clicking here.
Q. Can I buy Total Soccer Nutrition on its own?
Unfortunately not. Total Soccer Nutrition is only available with either Total Soccer Fitness or with Total Soccer Fitness for Juniors
Q. Do you design personlized training plans for players and teams?
Not at this time. It's something Phil does offline with clients in his own country but not through this website.
Q. I can't get my books to open. It's saying the file is corrupted.
First delete the corrupted file and try downloading again. this almost always solves the problem. Before you download again make sure you are running the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader available free of charge from www.adobe.com.
Q. What is an e-book, how does an e-book work on my computer, and why don't you have a hard copy book?
At the moment Total Soccer Fitness is NOT available in any bookstores and it is available only in e-book format from www.total-soccer-fitness.com. Why is it only available as an e-book?
First, the e-book has allowed world-wide distribution in an incredibly short period of time. It can be downloaded instantly. This could NEVER happen with printed material.
E-books are more economical too. There are no shipping charges and printing the all those exercises and drills in full color would put the cost of the book well above $29.
Some people prefer hard copy books and the good news is this e-book is fully printable because it is in adobe pdf format. Simply put the pages in a 3-ring binder. This is much more user friendly than a hard bound book anyway, especially as it's the kind of resource you'll use again and again.
You can burn a copy onto a CD or save it on a zip disc for your own personal use. You can also download pdf e-books into most hand held portable devices to read on the bus, plane, train, or wherever.
Q. How are the books actually delivered to me after I pay?
Immediately after you order, you will be forwarded to the order confirmation page where you will get a receipt number, and then you can go straight to the download page to get your e-book. You will also get an order confirmation by e-mail containing your receipt number after you order.
From the download page, all it takes is a couple of mouse clicks to download the e-book and bonus reports to your computer.
This e-book is published in adobe pdf format, which means you can open and read it with any MAC or PC. The only restriction is for Web TV users (sorry, Web TV users can't open a pdf ebook). Your download takes just seconds with a high speed connection and it's just a matter of minutes with a regular (dial up) internet connection.
You do NOT have to log onto the Internet each time you want to read your e-book. Once you've downloaded it, you just save it on your computer hard drive and read it directly from your computer screen.
And thats it! You don't have to be a computer whiz. Even if you're a self-confessed computer dummy, downloading, reading and printing your e-book is as easy as one, two, three!
