Professional Periodisation 

"A meaningfully inspiring football book for any coach"

What is Microciclo Estructurado? In English speaking countries, the work of tactical-periodisation has often dominated the talk on modern approaches to periodisation. However, Microciclo Estructurado is an approach that has been used to great success by coaches such as Guardiola and clubs such as Barça. The book looks to compare the model of tactical-periodisation to the model of microciclo estructurado and look to understand the differences and the pros and cons for coaches looking to adopt one of these models.

The book is not just theoretical information. What is unique in this approach, is we will look to explain the theory of each model, then provide session examples as to what a session will look like once it has been adapted to either of the models.

The session is both transferable to your own game, allowing you to use one of these sessions to develop different game model principles in your own coaching. Or it can help you to adapt your own sessions to the model, by using the data, information and guide to ensure your sessions can be adapted to suit either model."
