This year, I’ve been working with Sport Lisboa e Benfica and Bosnia National Football Team 🇧🇦 right-back, Amar Dedic 🦅🇧🇦
We’ve been working hard on recovery & other specifics since January and now, after an intense period, he’s ready for kick-off at the World Cup itself 🏆⚽️
I think it’s fair to say it’s been a unique period in both his career and mine.
The stats:
📊 64 sessions
⏱️ 5,000+ minutes together
🧠 Meetings, testing, analysis & reviews
As part of OMAR NUHIĆ - MD - IFMCP - ABAARM Athlete Upgrade Protocol alongside Coach Alexej , Amar’s consistency and recovery levels have been exceptional 📈
Somehow, between all that, we still found time for beach trips, him consoling me through many, many Tottenham defeats, and even helping me out with some babysitting 👶🤓
The season itself has been brilliant to watch up close, the highlights being three Champions League games vs Real Madrid and, of course, Bosnia’s two massive World Cup qualifier wins against Wales and Italy - which I tried to celebrate silently at home trying not to wake my daughter! 🤫
But the work behind it all is what made this period different for me. I’ve worked with plenty of professional athletes, but never through such a hectic in-season schedule, or with such a specific and constantly evolving plan.
A massive thank you to Amar and our small but mighty for trusting me to be part of it all, and introducing me to Čupavci 🍰 … especially while I’ve somehow been working one-handed since injuring myself back in late March 🦾 🤡
It’s a cliché, but it has genuinely been a pleasure working with such a good guy. I’ll be tuned in for every minute of Bosnia at the World Cup - and ready to go for pre-season and a massive year ahead 💪🚀
