Personal trainer

When Vardy’s “storm” took place in the Premier League during the 2015-2016 season, many fans asked about his training schedule and nutritional plan. There’s no doubt that even in the off-season, Jamie works very hard and it definitely pays off.

* Training plan

Jamie is known for his explosiveness and short off-the-ball burst sprints. To develop such an athletic ability, there are many segments that an athlete must cover. The most important thing for a soccer player is to prepare his body in the off-season through lots of sprint and conditioning exercises, weightlifting and explosive lifting, and CORE training. This is an excerpt from Jamie’s training program during the summer months.

Sunday

OFF DAY

* Nutrition

Leicester coaches have shown their perfect approach pointing out the importance of following a quality nutrition plan.

However, Jamie wasn’t one of those people who need to rely heavily on their diet, as he relies on an unconventional one. He’s been balancing between healthy eating and junk food for quite a while and it seems like it’s worth it. He credits his approach to nutrition for his great performances so far.

“ Vardy is very different from the others we have. For him, the relaxation bath is more important than a balanced meal full of proteins, carbohydrates and minerals. … We managed to change his approach by explaining the importance of consuming balanced meals consisting of carbohydrates, minerals and proteins before and after each training session. – explained one of Leicester’s personal trainers.
