Barca players to undergo speed and strength tests on first day

Barca's fitness trainers have sent the players their tasks for the first day, After the COVID-19 tests, which came back negative for everyone, the players will be back training this Friday.

The first player to return to training at the Joan Gamper complex will arrive at 9.30am. Tests on the player's speed and strength will be done to see how fit they are.

'AS' reports that the footballers will undergo a test of their aerobic and anaerobic metabolism to analyse how well they can recover from doing exercisxe. 

The second part of the training session will consist of max speed and sprinting exercises. All that will work the players' muscles. 

But that is not all. In the gym, their strength will be examined and it will be seen how much muscle mass they have lost. 

This is what will happen in the first few days of training to determine what physical state the players are in after the lockdown which has affected the whole of Spain for nearly two months.

That said, the players are not 100% happy with some of the measures imposed by the club. For example, they are not allowed to be visited by anyone who does not live with them.
