Same for me brother, it’s like we know them a lot and always nice to see where they are playing. A lot of diversity and the guy who was playing in Europe in sneakers is really good😂💪⚽️
What an inspiration, Matt! You have the career most of us dream about and you share your knowledge with all of us young footballers. AND on top of all the training you still manage to post 20+ minute videos 3 times a week. That’s why you’re a real influencer, not like those TikTok “dancers” 😂⚽️💪🧠
He is the real deal. Who would have said when he quit school when he was junior in college that all that would happened. Many thought he was crazy but today, he actually made the right choice💪🙌

Yes brother it does. However, it is hard to see them doing quality sessions and us all in lockdown not able to do the same. We need to remain positive as covid is not forever💪⚽️

Johnny Reynolds is a player, can see he's got quality. Shows the levels in Spain and Holland hence Europe. Balling out in trainers too lol... Not just him though there was quality all round. Quality session Matt. Also your crosses are absolute class Matt, so aesthetically pleasing too. Can see the benefits of you constantly working on it during this offseason, take advantage of that next season. Currently injured so thank you for these videos as they're helping me go through my injury.
Good question mate! two things: 1) analyse you performance 2) ask your coaches or your teammates! And then be strong enough to grind and improve that weakness!! hope this helps bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
i would say that if you feel that if you feel confortable with the ball in your feet and it feels natural, than one of your strengths could be dribbling or ball control.
Great advice on not relying too much on your strengths man, I myself do it all the time and i really have to constantly remind myself to work on my weaknesses too.
Tarik Conteh he has good technique, I just feel like he can improve his athleticism. He looks like he can lose a bit of weight and improve his speed, then he can definitely play at a higher level
Hard work beats talent... We all followed Matt Sheldons channel and saw how much he’s accomplished. Let’s give him more support and see how much he’ll accomplish this year. #Defense wins games. #BecomeElite #Matt Sheldon. 🔥 🔥 🔥

Matt I got a question, what was the hardest part of becoming a pro soccer player in North America without being in a mls or usl academy? Btw I’m canadien so it would be different.
The prices for academies in the OPDL and OASL are expensive, other than that though they have the faculties the coaching liscenes are most of the time guaranteed.
Hey bro, I am also Canadian and I would say that it is harder because you don’t get as much as quality sessions with experience coaches that knows a lot about the game. Often, it is the coach that can bring you to the next level with the football knowledge that he has. However, you can still make it without being in academies but you need a lot of consistency in your work.
do what alphonso davies did. try to improve your game non stop and find every possible way to be watched by a canadian team . find a way to be one of the best in your team and youll be transferred here to europe
haha i agree! If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
I have just started really watching your videos and focusing and paying attention to what say and advice you give about going pro and the obstacles that are on the way 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
wow im surprised how much anthony's biggest regret relates to me. I tend to train between 5-6 days a week, couple hours each day and i focus on things like ball mastery, dribbling, tight space stuff, etc., and i dont really pay attention to doing exercise (although i've always been very fit) or being fast (the only times i focus on running is when i am improving my endurance, but i never focus on speed). I think i'm going to start paying attention to those weaknesses more now.
yeh thats the right mindset bro! focusing on improving your weaknesses is literally the key to becoming successful in anything! Good luck bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
A lot of people only focus on their technical aspect of the game but it is also really physical. You need to find the right balance in your workouts, so you are great technically and physically⚽️🙌
yeh i agree!! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
Really appreciate these videos Matt. Ive been recovering from a bad injury for the last 3+ months and these give me a massive amount inspiration and motivation. Always watch these while I do my rehab exercises. Love how informative they are and it’s really awesome seeing the simple everyday behind the scenes training of high level players.
Mate that is so great to hear! I'm not sure how many people will see your comment but i would like to encourage you to keep up your insane mindset! The people who have mastered their mindset are the ones who will actually make it! Keep it up bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

Nice bro, really important that you start slow and progress depending on how you feel with your injury. Respect and take care of your body, you only have one!:)

I definitely still see him in the game and a mentor to younger players. He is great in nutrition also, so I wouldn’t be surprised that Matt will become like a manager or owner of his own soccer company. He is even a better person entrepreneur than soccer player. His brand and TH-cam channel are both his main revenue and of course his USL contract but I don’t think it is as much as the other two revenues🙌
yeh it was class! Also if you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
Quality players = Quality rondos. I love the speed of play, so the people in the middle really have to work hard to recover the ball. Rondos are simply the nicest and useful drills for football.
Q&A: As a young player, is it better to improve your strengths, or remove your weaknesses. e.g should a player with brilliant passing and very poor shooting, try to focus more on shooting, more on passing or an equal amount on both?
I would suggest analysing you game, figuring out what your strengths are, what your weaknesses are and focus at least 60% of your individual training sessions on improving your weaknesses and the rest on making your strengths into "super strengths". However there is one thing all player can improve and that is their mentality, learning to maximise your confidence, or staying positive.

17:10 I have the same regret as Anthony. I relied too much on my technical ability. I can spray even 15-yard passes accurately because since the age of 8(now19) I played a lot of 5a side games. but I am slow AF my fitness is poor and I look like a stick
yeh i understand bro! Keep your head up because with the correct mindset you can genuinely transform your body! and you have to remember that football is about the technical side of the game so if you've nailed that then find ways to compensate for your lack of speed and fitness! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
You are still young bro, I am also 19 and you can definitely improve those aspects of your game. Try to do a lot of weights and agility drills and running technique. I know you can make it.
great mentality bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!

Have a great USL season on his individual aspect but also make the playoff and go further since last year they were eliminated pretty quick. Continue to grow his TH-cam channel with quality content and spend nice time with Mimi especially and his family. It will be the same until he retires for sure and then he will start new goals and achievement.
Q and A. How do you deal with injuries? I've been getting injured for the past couple of weeks, and it is killing me. It's not those serious injuries like ACL tears; it's the minor groin strains and calf strains. I know you have to rest and build up slowly, but what is your mindset when injured? I tend to get frustrated and annoyed, wishing I can be out on the field to get better. How can I change that? Thanks.

Don't skip bro, his videos are great and very motivational. He wasn't the most talented guy and look where he is now. Pro player with a great TH-cam channel and clothing brand. He is also a great entrepreneur.
QnA : how to deal with season getting cancelled while it is ongoing then it is uncertain when it will resume? Like do you train just maintain fitness or do you try to gain more muscle etc. Also 2nd part is what of you get covid how to get back to fitness? (if possible cna you ask some teammates who experience this) 2:14 xhedan shaqiri in the house lmao

Q & A: As a younger player (12, 13, 14), do you think I should be training by using drills (cone drills, passing drills) or should I be working on going out and just playing in mini games and getting as many touches on the ball as I can. I am asking this because I see that the kids in foreign countries are excelling by getting out in the streets and getting as many touches as they can, improving their decisiveness, and learning as raw as they can.
honeslty bro i would focus on playing as much as you can because when i was your age i did thousands of drills and now have gotabove average technical ability, but do struggle with the deciosn making element of the game! The best way to improve your game, is to play so go for it bro! hope this helps! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

Q&A : hi Matt I wanted to ask what advise you would give a 12 year old who is training hard to make it as a pro footballer. What tips would you give a twelve year old. Thanks

Just have fun brother, don’t put too much pressure on your shoulders as it is only a game at the end of the day. Enjoy life and if you have to make it, you will make it. Work hard and keep grinding but don’t forget that school is really important and can also create more opportunities for you at soccer.
its a fairly smooth transistion but you just need to make sure you give yourself time to adapt!

The game was faster and physically more demanding for sure. It simply gets harder and is not difficult to see and analyze. Great question but also easy to respond:)
Q&A: what goals do you have for yourself down the line when you can’t play professional soccer. Are you interested in coach at all or opening up a soccer facility? Love the content!

Do y’all know any tips on how to eat less? If been trying to lose weight and tomorrow marks the day where I’ve been consistently working out for a month but I’m not seeing any changes. Am I just being impatient? I’m also not doing to good mentally.... I haven’t gone to a soccer field in months and I sure am missing it :(
It is good to eat less but you also have to combine it with trainings that you sweat a lot. Good start for the eating routine, now just add workouts brother.
Matt, what do you think is the better path to pro, do you think it’s easier to go straight from academy to first team of a pro club, or it’s better to break off, go to college and then come back
good question Jason! The college route will help you with your education but other than that i think the academy route is a bit smoother!with that being said though, lots of players have progressed through both pathways! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

Q&A When doing ball mastery drills should you look down at the ball or away? Or is it a combination of both? I’ve seen a lot of people say you should look up and I’ve seen people say you should look down

Messi looks at the ball a lot. But he also sees more of the field than most players. He has trained himself to see the ball from the edge of his eyes when looking around and to see the situation around him when looking at the ball. It takes a lot of practice.
Q&A: Matt, what are your thoughts on the best ways to get noticed by college coaches? Like, would you say that playing soccer for your high school team or for your club team year-round will give you a better shot at being scouted?

Make great highlights videos, send many emails to College coaches as it is easy to find their emails on internet. Have good grades to get the biggest scholarship.

Q & A:How to show coach that I deserve at least chance to play so I can show what I can? Because I think that he don't pay attention on me when we have training
Most coaches notice effort. If you are giving 100% from the start of practice, your coach will see that. And I don't just mean physical effort. Mental focus is also critical.

I believe that with his journey, it was more difficult to reach out the pro level because he tried abroad in 7 different places and was not kept. He really had to work hard and remain positive because he was denied a lot. However, now he is set in the USL and really earned his spot in the great full back of the league:)

I would say that the increasing of the visibly and level of the MLS has a big impact on the academy players of the MLS academy. They are in better hands than before with staff, facilities and knowledge of the game. There are much more talents in the US today than 4-5 years ago.

Watch Matt's video on all the crazy moves in the FA Cup final. It is a few years old, but a great message. You don't train moves to use in games. You train moves to develop ball mastery. If you are thinking about the move, you are already too slow.

Johnny Reynolds is a player, can see he's got quality. Shows the levels in Spain and Holland hence Europe. Balling out in trainers too lol... Not just him though there was quality all round. Quality session Matt. Also your crosses are absolute class Matt, so aesthetically pleasing too. Can see the benefits of you constantly working on it during this offseason, take advantage of that next season. Currently injured so thank you for these videos as they're helping me go through my injury.
They all have qualities and a ton of potential💪⚽️
im really interessted where he plays now? i couldn't find anything
Q&A: How do you identify between your strengths and weaknesses? How can you tell if there is any improvement?
Good question mate! two things: 1) analyse you performance
2) ask your coaches or your teammates! And then be strong enough to grind and improve that weakness!! hope this helps bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
i would say that if you feel that if you feel confortable with the ball in your feet and it feels natural, than one of your strengths could be dribbling or ball control.
From watching your performances and highlights.
Ask yourself some questions. Is my left foot as good as my right foot? Do I feel like I have mastered the ball or not as confident. E.c.t
You know when you feel the level you are playing is easy. That’s when you know you need more competition and higher level.
9:47 okay that was SICK.
player that, pulled up with no training gear u know he's gonna be cheeky
True
He comes from Spain so Yk he has to have learned something
Great advice on not relying too much on your strengths man, I myself do it all the time and i really have to constantly remind myself to work on my weaknesses too.
Johnny (grey hoodie) is a good player. Just like Chase I reckon playing in Europe influences their style because they both play very tidy football!
Tarik Conteh I agree, he's skilful and has flair which you don't see many American players have.
Yeah I guess playing in Spain alone teaches you to improve those attributes because of the style of play!
Tarik Conteh and Netherlands, as they focus a lot on technique there
Tarik Conteh he has good technique, I just feel like he can improve his athleticism. He looks like he can lose a bit of weight and improve his speed, then he can definitely play at a higher level
@@McFlashh he is not is even that big but he is very good and the fact he was at a team in the 1st division of Netherlands shows he is class
The guy wearing running shoes was a baller
At first, I thought he was gonna be bad because he had no cleats, but he definitely proved me wrong💪
Hard work beats talent... We all followed Matt Sheldons channel and saw how much he’s accomplished. Let’s give him more support and see how much he’ll accomplish this year.

Matt
I got a question, what was the hardest part of becoming a pro soccer player in North America without being in a mls or usl academy?
Btw I’m canadien so it would be different.
The prices for academies in the OPDL and OASL are expensive, other than that though they have the faculties the coaching liscenes are most of the time guaranteed.
Hey bro, I am also Canadian and I would say that it is harder because you don’t get as much as quality sessions with experience coaches that knows a lot about the game. Often, it is the coach that can bring you to the next level with the football knowledge that he has. However, you can still make it without being in academies but you need a lot of consistency in your work.
do what alphonso davies did. try to improve your game non stop and find every possible way to be watched by a canadian team . find a way to be one of the best in your team and youll be transferred here to europe
It’s very satisfying that the video is 22 minutes and 22 second long

I have just started really watching your videos and focusing and paying attention to what say and advice you give about going pro and the obstacles that are on the way 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Been a while since I tuned in to a video! Glad to see you’re still grinding
wow im surprised how much anthony's biggest regret relates to me. I tend to train between 5-6 days a week, couple hours each day and i focus on things like ball mastery, dribbling, tight space stuff, etc., and i dont really pay attention to doing exercise (although i've always been very fit) or being fast (the only times i focus on running is when i am improving my endurance, but i never focus on speed). I think i'm going to start paying attention to those weaknesses more now.
yeh thats the right mindset bro! focusing on improving your weaknesses is literally the key to becoming successful in anything! Good luck bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
A lot of people only focus on their technical aspect of the game but it is also really physical. You need to find the right balance in your workouts, so you are great technically and physically⚽️🙌

Really appreciate these videos Matt. Ive been recovering from a bad injury for the last 3+ months and these give me a massive amount inspiration and motivation.
Always watch these while I do my rehab exercises.
Love how informative they are and it’s really awesome seeing the simple everyday behind the scenes training of high level players.

Matt is great. He always post banger!
Q&A: Have you thought about what you will do for a career once your playing days are over?
I definitely still see him in the game and a mentor to younger players. He is great in nutrition also, so I wouldn’t be surprised that Matt will become like a manager or owner of his own soccer company. He is even a better person entrepreneur than soccer player. His brand and TH-cam channel are both his main revenue and of course his USL contract but I don’t think it is as much as the other two revenues🙌
Loved the video

Quality players = Quality rondos. I love the speed of play, so the people in the middle really have to work hard to recover the ball. Rondos are simply the nicest and useful drills for football.
Q&A: As a young player, is it better to improve your strengths, or remove your weaknesses. e.g should a player with brilliant passing and very poor shooting, try to focus more on shooting, more on passing or an equal amount on both?
I would suggest analysing you game, figuring out what your strengths are, what your weaknesses are and focus at least 60% of your individual training sessions on improving your weaknesses and the rest on making your strengths into "super strengths". However there is one thing all player can improve and that is their mentality, learning to maximise your confidence, or staying positive. If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
How can you be a good passer and a bad shooter? They are the same mechanics.
It was just an example, plus you could easily be a good short passer, and unable to strike the ball cleanly
I have a tip for everyone if you don’t wanna play in college and want to be pro as soon as you can stay in school try the play varsity get clips from all your varsity seasons and make a highlight reel to show coaches

Great video⚽👍
Would u ever do a training session in Miami. I would love to train with you.
If he goes there, it is more for vacation😂
17:10 I have the same regret as Anthony. I relied too much on my technical ability. I can spray even 15-yard passes accurately because since the age of 8(now19) I played a lot of 5a side games. but I am slow AF my fitness is poor and I look like a stick
yeh i understand bro! Keep your head up because with the correct mindset you can genuinely transform your body! and you have to remember that football is about the technical side of the game so if you've nailed that then find ways to compensate for your lack of speed and fitness! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
You are still young bro, I am also 19 and you can definitely improve those aspects of your game. Try to do a lot of weights and agility drills and running technique. I know you can make it.
Watching this right before I go train
great mentality bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!

Have a great USL season on his individual aspect but also make the playoff and go further since last year they were eliminated pretty quick. Continue to grow his TH-cam channel with quality content and spend nice time with Mimi especially and his family. It will be the same until he retires for sure and then he will start new goals and achievement.
Q and A. How do you deal with injuries? I've been getting injured for the past couple of weeks, and it is killing me. It's not those serious injuries like ACL tears; it's the minor groin strains and calf strains. I know you have to rest and build up slowly, but what is your mindset when injured? I tend to get frustrated and annoyed, wishing I can be out on the field to get better. How can I change that? Thanks.
I bet Matt is only posting daily because Anthony is with him😆

Q&A. How important do you think it is to also have a lift on the side and enjoy time with family and friends and have that balance
yeh its so important for you r mental health and mindset because you cant obvisouly train 100% all day and you will have lots of time off, so spend it with those you love because in the end, they are the ones that matter! i know its hard to do sometimes, because personally i struggle with it as well! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

QnA : how to deal with season getting cancelled while it is ongoing then it is uncertain when it will resume?

Q & A: As a younger player (12, 13, 14), do you think I should be training by using drills (cone drills, passing drills) or should I be working on going out and just playing in mini games and getting as many touches on the ball as I can. I am asking this because I see that the kids in foreign countries are excelling by getting out in the streets and getting as many touches as they can, improving their decisiveness, and learning as raw as they can.
honeslty bro i would focus on playing as much as you can because when i was your age i did thousands of drills and now have gotabove average technical ability, but do struggle with the deciosn making element of the game! The best way to improve your game, is to play so go for it bro! hope this helps! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

Just have fun brother, don’t put too much pressure on your shoulders as it is only a game at the end of the day. Enjoy life and if you have to make it, you will make it.

Am I just being impatient? I’m also not doing to good mentally.... I haven’t gone to a soccer field in months and I sure am missing it :(
It is good to eat less but you also have to combine it with trainings that you sweat a lot. Good start for the eating routine, now just add workouts brother.
Matt, what do you think is the better path to pro, do you think it’s easier to go straight from academy to first team of a pro club, or it’s better to break off, go to college and then come back

Q&A When doing ball mastery drills should you look down at the ball or away? Or is it a combination of both? I’ve seen a lot of people say you should look up and I’ve seen people say you should look down

Messi looks at the ball a lot. But he also sees more of the field than most players. He has trained himself to see the ball from the edge of his eyes when looking around and to see the situation around him when looking at the ball. It takes a lot of practice.
Q&A: Matt, what are your thoughts on the best ways to get noticed by college coaches? Like, would you say that playing soccer for your high school team or for your club team year-round will give you a better shot at being scouted?

I love the dynamic duo. I wish Anthony would have stayed longer. He is already leaving is less than a week now. Canada is in lockdown and it is really snowy. He should definitely stay 2-3 weeks more haha.
as a fullback should i do things such as crossing and defending everyday it train or space them out ?
I would focus on your weakneses for 60% of yoursession and the rest focus on your strengths so if your weakness is crossing then focus on that! Hope that helps bro! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

Q & A:How to show coach that I deserve at least chance to play so I can show what I can? Because I think that he don't pay attention on me when we have training
Most coaches notice effort. If you are giving 100% from the start of practice, your coach will see that. And I don't just mean physical effort. Mental focus is also critical.
train hard and make sure to communicate with the coach if you can! Also if you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
What’s the best advice you could give me (16 year old ) semi pro player looking for a first team call up / a pro contract at with a team in another country, like what would you say I would have to do to improve and get to the next level of my career
HI mate, it is important to remember that every player is different and an improvement point that may help one person won't necicerily help another one. I would suggest analysing you game, figuring out what your strengths are, what your weaknesses are and focus at least 60% of your individual training sessions on improving your weaknesses and the rest on making your strengths into "super strengths". However there is one thing all player can improve and that is their mentality, learning to maximise your confidence, or staying positive.

If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
@@The1Percent thank you mate this helps !
Q&A was it harder for you getting to the pro level, or maintaining the level you are on
he has said it before that it is harder staying as a pro! its all about mentality though! Also if you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
I believe that with his journey, it was more difficult to reach out the pro level because he tried abroad in 7 different places and was not kept. He really had to work hard and remain positive because he was denied a lot. However, now he is set in the USL and really earned his spot in the great full back of the league:)
Tercera is fourth division btw. Segunda B is 3rd. just surprised u didn’t know that
yeh thanks bro i wasnt to sure as well! Also if you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
Ummm i have a question, what are the benefits of weighing urself in the morning?
Q:A We see recently that usa is producing much more top quality talents like pulisic, Reyna, mckennie etc. Obviously thats a big step going forward for Soccer in the states . So, in your opinion what 's the most important factor on the improvement of the level of football in usa?
I would say that the increasing of the visibly and level of the MLS has a big impact on the academy players of the MLS academy. They are in better hands than before with staff, facilities and knowledge of the game. There are much more talents in the US today than 4-5 years ago.
How do you do rondos by yourself or with a partner tho? What do you recommend for small sessions?
Q/A
hi mage, yeh it is hard to perform these kind of drills with less players! I would suggest doing wall passing combinations as well as one v ones to help get that match realism in your sessions! hope this helps gabe! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!

Q & A: How did you balance you’re realationship with you’re wife/ family and football/soccer?
Great question i hop eh answers that because i think a oot of people struggle with that! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!
He’s been pretty good at it since he finds the right balance in a day. He spend time with Mimi when she is there, works hard, and eat and watch series with his parents. Every week, he has at least one day where it is more chilling and enjoying time with the people that he loves the most🙌
I am training 1v1 attacking alone but cannot do those skills in game , what can be my problem?
Watch Matt's video on all the crazy moves in the FA Cup final. It is a few years old, but a great message. You don't train moves to use in games. You train moves to develop ball mastery. If you are thinking about the move, you are already too slow.
Thanks
yeh and also you need to develop confidence! If you are interested in developing your confidence and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think! If not, don't worry, I understand and hope you have a great day!

Matt has talked about this a lot. He used to do more heavy lifts and now he spends more time on balance, prehab, and mobility.
He have done many many weights session and fitness. He is a certified nutrition coach because has a great knowledge of what to do to be better physically to improve his results on and off the field. Good question btw bro, I would love to see Matt answers since we are not him and cannot talk for him.

Keep working bro and try to contact him if you are close to where he lives. If you have qualities, I am sure that you can train with him. He always looks to have many players at training because you can do more variety of drills with a bigger number.
Q&A : Is not going to the gym until 17 okay?, with 2 hours training on fields and home (please put a sign on your video that you answered me in to let me notice you replied)
everyone is different bro so if you are relly naturally strong then it will be fine, but if you struggle with strength then if you can you may want to start going to the gym a bit earlier! but if it isn't possible to go to the gym before 17, start off with bodyweight exercises! also If you are interested in developing and improving your mentality, I would be so grateful if you could check us out and see what you think!
