stamina

[Andys]

basicly, i'm 13, quite skinny, reasonably fast but i can't seem to run for very long at all.
i get tired off running about the length of an 11 a-side pitch?

as i'm only 13 i'm quite worried - is this normal?

[Minstrels]

IMO that is unfit... Where do you play though.

[DieselShaq]

Running or sprinting? If you do mean running, then that is unfit...

However it depends where he plays, don't make say it's unfit when you don't know where he plays. Midfield, it's unfit. Keeper? It's fit. Defender? It's fit. Striker? Fit.

In my opinion, it doesn't really matter what position he plays. That is unfit in general terms.

I'd say that was pretty unfit.

Playing football every night doesnt mean you are fit, as you could be running short distances and not training your stamina.

To train your stamina you should start jogging, and gradually keep getting further and further, so you can handle longer distances.

Then speed up the jogging, until you reach a sprinting pace.
