What is the Epic Soccer Training?
Epic Soccer Training is a resource
put together by former Adidas All American Player Matt Smith. This
soccer training program is designed for players that are striving to
improve their personal ball skills and ultimately become a better
all-round player of the game.
This Epic soccer training content
consists of a PDF format workbook and 4 modules (each module consisting
of between 21 and 10 videos). Unlike many other programs out there that
are targeted at giving coaches the information to teach a team of
players the skills, this course is targeted at individuals that wish to
improve their own skills outside of the traditional team training
environment. This is quite important distinguishing factor if you do
intend on coaching yourself, as many products out there for example
Coerver coaching DVD programs are very difficult to implement when the
course and drills have been designed around a team training environment.
When reviewing the skills based videos
of the epic soccer training program it is worth noting 90% of drills
and skill exercises are demonstrated can be performed with no partner
assistance. This is very helpful when engage in a training program in
your own time, as the problem of finding a partner to train with that is
reliable and as motivated as yourself can be one of the largest
challenges.
My First impression of Epic Soccer Traininig
Honestly when presented with the sales page of this product I was a little bit skeptical, as I am more than aware of the hundreds of products for sale out there.I am particularly skeptical when a product promoter states that “I was just like you until I learnt this new miracle training technique” this isn’t explicitly stated in the video on the sales page, but I did get that vibe. Obviously this was not the case given the star rating i gave epic soccer training.
Un-boxing Epic Soccer Training
Once you have gone through the sales procedure you will receive an email
with your user name and email, this will allow you to log in to start
viewing the course page named “MY PRODUCTS”. Once logged in, you will be
greeted with a main menu page that has not only the “Epic soccer
training course”, but also Matts other courses (Epic Soccer 1000 Club,
Epic speed training and a few others), this is quite handy if you had
purchase any other add on products as you can access them all in the one
place (obviously if you try to view any products you have not purchased
you will not get access). Once you have clicked on the “Epic soccer
training” access button, you will enter a page giving you the options
of; Workbook & Modules 1, 2, 3 & 4. This is where the fun
begins!
As tempting as it was to jump in and start watching the video clips I
decided to download and print the work book , at 77 pages it is an in
depth workbook that I recommend downloading straight away before
jumping into the videos, i also recommend printing a hard copy if you
have access to a printer.
Now to module 1 video clips, this is broken up into 19 individual
topics. These clips are only short (between 1minute 14seconds with the
longest at 12minutes 14seconds), but they do give you all the
information that you need on the given topic, this is aided by a
paragraph of text below the video when it is opened. Although each clip
is short, module one video clips totaling 1Hour 3 Minutes, it is a
substantial about of video demonstration. Modules 2, 3, and 4 follow
the same structure as module 1 with module total times as follows;- Module 1 – 1hour 3Mins
- Module 2 – 1hour 19Mins
- Module 3 – 1hour 50Mins
- Module 4 – 26Mins
My Opinion
Many soccer training videos I have seen in the past have a senior
coach explain the technique, but when the technique is demonstrated it
is done by a younger, inexperienced player. This is not the case with
Epic Soccer Training, as all techniques are demonstrated by Matt. I
found that they were executed much clearer and cleaner because that are
done by a skilled senior player.
In the workbook there is a training program that has been set out to get you started, this references the video clips for demonstrations and is a great added bonus as a lot of time can be wasted trying to write out a program that is comprehensive but not over the top.
I believe that all aspects of skills training is covered within the program, Everything you need to know to become a excellent player is covered in depth.
Although no fitness based topics are covered (You have to get Epic speed training for the fitness component) the program is really a one stop product from the individual wanting to improve their skills. The power of self-training is often underestimated in the soccer industry, but there are many studies that support the idea that players that have taken responsibility for their own skills development have a much higher chance of one day becoming a pro player.
The Breakdown
Pros- Skills are demonstrated by a former pro soccer player
- Quality of Video/audio
- Complete course for individual player training
- 100% money back guarantee
- Video content cannot be downloaded onto your computer and must be watched online
- Not suited to a coach that wants to learn to coach a team
My Conclusion
This program will give you the information to train more effective and get there as quick as possible .This product does not have any “secrets”, but it does have every techniques to become a great player demonstrated very well, with great innovative methods to use to improve your skills fast are well documented.
