How to pack the perfect bag for winter

Icy roads in the morning and even the first signs of snow at football training. Make no mistake, winter is upon us and you need to be prepared if you don’t want your training sessions to feel worse than a Roberto Carlos free kick to the face. Find out how to pack your bag for the winter weather here.

If you want the ultimate football packing list, so you know you're not missing anything that would make your training session better, then read along or watch the video below here to get the full overview of all the gear we recommend using during winter. Wearing the right gear is incredibly important if you want to get the most out of your work, because if you’re cold and don’t feel good on the pitch, then you can’t hope to perform your best physically.

In the video above you’ll see the key winter essentials you should always pack in your football bag. A proper base layer keeps your body warm and your muscles ready, while compression shorts add extra warmth without restricting movement.

A warm long sleeve training top helps trap heat during cold sessions, and gloves together with a snug neck warmer are must-haves when the temperature drops. These simple additions will help you stay comfortable and focused throughout winter training. Remember, winning in spring starts with training in winter.
