The biggest difference between physical fitness coaches and physical fitness coaches is that they are often very simple and crude.
If you disagree, roll up your sleeves and do it yourself!
Just like Manchester United's Mike Clegg, this is a fitness fanatic who can't even convince Cristiano Ronaldo.
This makes the players very embarrassed.
When faced with ordinary physical fitness coaches, if the training intensity is too high, they can complain and say: You can do it, go ahead!
But for physical fitness coaches, they generally don’t dare to say that.
Because they can really do it!
…
In the first training session after the winter break at Fort Volturno, Pintus made everyone in Gao Shen and Naples feel his simple and rough style.
He came to Naples early. After fully understanding the physical condition of the Naples players, he divided the players into multiple different groups based on their positions, roles, and tasks, and formulated different training tasks for each group.
.
After coming to Naples, Pintus was also very impressed by the professionalism of the Naples coaching staff, especially the player data and information provided to him, which was so detailed that he could not believe it.
"I have experienced so many teams and have never seen such professional and detailed player data and reports. In Italy, I am afraid that even the Milan laboratory may not be able to do this because they have been cutting budgets over the years.
"
With the support of these data and reports, Pintus was able to formulate plans with ease.
The training tasks of each group are different, but they all have a common characteristic, that is, they are very intense.
How big is it?
Pellet's physical fitness is considered very good, and his running is considered very good among Serie A centers. However, in Pintus' devilish training, he only lasted 20 minutes and died.
Since he was a compatriot, Pellet complained very much to Pintus, saying that the training intensity was too intense and he was afraid that he would be injured.
The results of it?
Pintus took off his jacket immediately, as if he was transformed into a sparkling man with his own BGM. He went to the training ground and started working directly, completing all the players' training items without touching the ground.
The 45-year-old middle-aged man also pointed at Pellet and said: "From today on, I will follow you as much as you do!"
Everyone is stupid!
Is this a forty-five year old man?
Gao Shen, Carlo, Zidane and others stood on the sidelines, all dumbfounded.
"Was he this strong before when he was at Juventus?" Gao Shen curiously gossiped.
Zidane thought about what he was like when he was playing for Juventus, shook his head and said: "At that time, he was just an assistant and often played in person, but he was not so fierce."
Gao Shen understands.
However, the advantage is that even a forty-five-year-old man can do it. Let me ask, what reasons and excuses does a professional player in his early twenties have for saying that he can't do it?
…
After fully grasping the data and physical condition of Naples players, especially after two or three days of training, Pintus also basically grasped the actual situation of the players, combined with the training of Buenaventura and other coaching staff members.
Training plan, the Italian bald coach adjusted his training plan.
He originally wanted to conduct special winter training for ten days, but now he feels it is necessary to increase it to two weeks.
The two-week special training period will be more complete, the team's physical fitness will be more guaranteed, and the state can last longer.
But this will inevitably affect the competition after the winter break.
In the eighteenth round, Naples will challenge AC Milan away from home, followed by the Coppa Italia home game against Lazio.
The most important thing is the last scene.
In the first round, Naples lost to Lazio 1-2 in an away game. If they cannot reverse at home, promotion will become an empty talk.
After high-intensity training, it takes a period of time to recover, usually about two weeks. After returning to form, it takes a period of adjustment to allow the team's overall condition to reach its peak.
Pintus has extended the special training period, so naturally, the recovery period will also be extended and the adjustment period will also be affected.
Preliminary estimates are that the team will not reach its peak until the end of February.
"From then on, all we need to do is fine-tune, and I am confident that the entire team's condition will be maintained at a high level." Pintus promised confidently.
It is impossible to stay at the top for a long time. As long as you can stay at a high level, it is already very difficult.
The training system created by Mourinho in Porto is most famous for maintaining player condition.
Gao Shen now listens to Pintus' tone and coupled with Buenaventura's plan, he feels that after Naples adjusts, the overall situation will be better than Porto.
But during this period of laying the foundation, you will definitely have to go through labor pains.
Gao Shen understands that the ups and downs of a player's status are objective and cannot be changed.
Just like Inter Milan in the first half of the season, didn't it also have ups and downs, but after November, it completely ushered in an explosion, and with the help of a wave of winning streak, it directly widened the score gap?
Ferguson's Manchester United often staged big comebacks in the second half because he adjusted Manchester United's state to that period every time. During the previous period, the most important thing was to bite the opponent in the standings.
So the key is that Naples must maintain the pressure on Inter Milan during this period of pain and not be widened, while maintaining its advantage over Roma and Juventus.
But it's also very difficult.
Naples is adjusting, teams such as Inter Milan, Roma and Juventus are also adjusting, and other teams in Serie A are also adjusting. This is a dynamic and very competitive environment.
It can be said that Gao Shen's choice will directly affect Naples' next trend.
He can seek stability and continue the momentum of the first half. After Pintus joins, Naples' situation will definitely improve, but whether it can reverse Inter Milan is a question.
He can also take risks and take a chance. The risks are high, but the benefits are also high.
Are there ways to reduce the risk?
Yes, that means you are strong enough.
Strength includes players, including head coaches.
Just like Inter Milan, if the lineup is strong enough, even if they are in poor condition, they can still defeat their opponents. What are they afraid of?
This is the biggest difference between a wealthy team and other teams.
"Lorenzo, Antonio."
Gao Shen looked at Buenaventura and Pintus, "I'll just follow the plan you made. I'll give you half a month. I hope you won't let me down!"
Buenaventura and Pintus looked at each other, feeling a deep sense of trust.
Gao Shen trusted them and shouldered all the pressure.
Everyone knows that when results are poor, the first to suffer is the head coach.
"I'll take care of the other things, just go ahead and do it!"
Gao Shen issued an eviction order.
He also needs to have necessary communication with Marino and De Laurentiis.
…
Zidane stayed in Naples for a week and witnessed the special training of Buenaventura and Pintus. He was speechless.
Before leaving, he told Gao Shen that he was glad that he retired early and deeply sympathized with the Naples players.
During this week, he helped Gao Shen train Cavani, Pelle and other players on their personal skills, not only in handling the details of the ball, but more importantly in shooting skills.
Gao Shen worked hard to convince De Laurentiis and Marino to let them try to use Sampdoria's right back Macho during the winter break. This was what he wanted to introduce last summer, but was rejected by Sampdoria at the time.
Ya refused.
This time, Maggio was very interested in Naples, but Sampdoria once again rejected Naples' inquiry.
Sampdoria is currently ranked tenth in Serie A, and the gap with Naples is still relatively obvious, but they are not willing to let him go during the winter break.
Gao Shen also considered other targets, but Naples currently has limited financial resources and did not dare to consider players whose prices were too high. Gao Shen was not satisfied with players whose prices were suitable, so they finally shelved them.

In mid-January, Serie A reignited its gains.
But after the winter break, Serie A teams are generally in poor shape.
Juventus faces Catania away from home.
As a result, Juventus fell behind by one goal in the first fifteen minutes. After that, no matter how hard the Bianconeri bombed, they were still unable to break through Catania's goal.
Just when everyone thought that Juventus was going to lose to Catania in an upset away game, in stoppage time, the referee suddenly blew the whistle, signaling a defensive foul by the Catania defender, and awarded Juventus a penalty.
Penalty kick.
Del Piero scored in one stroke and equalized the score for Juventus.
This game also caused fierce controversy after the game.
…
Roma will challenge Atalanta away from home.
Very similar to Juventus, they also conceded a goal and fell behind in the first ten minutes. However, before the end of the first half, Roma launched a wave of attacks. With the goals of Totti and Mancini, they reversed the score 2-1.
defeated Atlanta and scored three points.
…
Inter Milan faces Siena away from home.
With Ibrahimovic's two goals and Cambiasso's goal, although Siena equalized the score twice after taking the lead twice, Inter Milan still narrowly defeated its opponent 3-2 in the end.
, scored three points again.
…
Naples' away game against AC Milan is the finale of this round.
This resulted in Naples falling behind Inter Milan by ten points in the real-time standings, being overtaken by Roma, with the same points as Juventus, and falling to third place in Serie A.
AC Milan signed the Brazilian genius Pato last summer for a sky-high price of 22 million euros. However, because he was under the age of 18, he was not transferred until the winter break.
Former Real Madrid star Ronaldo has been injured after moving to AC Milan and has not been able to get a chance to play so far this season. This time he will also play for AC Milan, plus Kaká.
The media broke out early that Ancelotti will line up the Brazilian trident of Pato, Ronaldo and Kaká at home.
The good news for Naples is that AC Milan's midfielder Gattuso will miss this game due to accumulation of yellow cards, which will inevitably make AC Milan's midfield weak.
Everyone is looking forward to this, which is likely to be a wonderful offensive battle.
Especially the reunion between Gao Shen and Ronaldo's master and apprentice.
