It’s Leg Day  - Love it or hate it, but regardless of your feelings we hope you do the right thing and don't just skip it. Low load glute activation drills during the general warm-up have become increasingly popular in strength & conditioning, and they’re heavily used in the physical therapy setting as well. 

To really develop and maintain your fitness level as a female soccer player requires a combination of anaerobic and aerobic training. Think about it: you need the power to jump for a header or sprint 10 yards to a ball and recover quickly—and to last the full 90 minutes of a regulation game.
