Historic Performance Podcast #11 - Manuel Lapuente Sagarra
Category: Sports & Recreation

Description:    

In the eleventh episode of the Historic Performance Podcast, I interview Manuel Lapuente Sagarra.  Currently, Manuel is a professional soccer conditioning coach and sport scientist that works at Complex Esportiu Futbol Salou in Salou, Tarragona, Spain.  He is well-respected throughout Spain and has worked in soccer during the past 16 years.  His career has taken him throughout the world including Spain, Switzerland, Russia, Greece, & United Arab Emirates.  

I was introduced to Manuel by Hugo Langton, who owns an opposition scouting & soccer coaching company in England.  In May of 2014, Hugo hosted a seminar in London, which featured Manuel & Miquel Gomila. During that seminar, both of them discussed the theory behind tactical periodization.

In this episode, Manuel focuses on the theory of tactical periodization & how physical periodization has to be intertwined with the tactical model employed by the team manager.  Despite English not being his native language, I feel that Manuel does a splendid job of "peeling back the layers" of this complex topic.
