My Story

Since I was a child, I have fallen a real passion for sport and the values it represents. Being already aware of I wanted to make it my profession, over the years I found my desired lifestyle in soccer. Therefore, I began my university studies in Sports Science and from the first years I felt a strong interest for improving the physical performance of the players, leading me to increase my interest about this particular matter. I graduated from bachelor’s degree at University of Granada in 2013 and since then I have been working hard to keep gaining a more in-depth knowledge; studying the MSc of Strength & Conditioning at the University of Granada in 2015, MPhill of Research in Physical Activity and Sport Sciences at the University of Malaga in 2017 and MSc of High Performance in Team Sports at the University of Barcelona during 2015 and 2017, obtaining the qualification of ‘Special Mention’. Obsessed with optimizing the players’ training process to peak performance in competition, within the complex context of constant change and uncertainty that soccer represents, I wanted to go further and undertake my PhD studies based on the contextualized analysis of high-level soccer players’ physical performance monitored through GPS devices from 2018 to 2021, obtaining the qualification of ‘Cum Laude’.

However, my main occupation and from where my passion lies in is working ‘on the field’. Over all these years of academic training, I have also worked as S&C Coach and/or Rehab Therapist for several soccer clubs from Spain and China as well as for individual professional athletes. Nonetheless, in my incessant pursuit of practical application to science, the study and analyses of physical performance along with sharing and disseminating knowledge has aroused great interest for me; Therefore, I started to work in the field of performance analysis and teaching; currently working as lecturer for ISSPF (International Soccer Science & Performance Federation), and so I decided to start my Blog.
