The goalkeeper’s key role in the team and the importance of specialized training
The goalkeeper occupies a unique position in the team and requires specific training. His decisions and reactions have a decisive influence on the outcome of the game. Targeted and varied goalkeeper training is therefore essential.
The TOGU Jumper: essential equipment for goalkeeper training
The TOGU Jumper is a key component for effective goalkeeper training. Its unique instability forces goalkeepers to perfect their balance and body control, which is crucial for authentic play on the field. In addition, the Jumper allows for a variety of exercises that target specific muscle groups, ensuring comprehensive training that cannot be achieved through conventional methods alone. Goalkeeping Development regularly integrates the TOGU Jumper to ensure variety and innovation. Even the founder Michael Rechner, goalkeeping coach for the professionals at TSG Hoffenheim, regularly uses the Jumper in professional training.
Three effective exercises for goalkeepers with the TOGU Jumper
Exercise 1: Upper body strengthening and basic techniques
The goalkeeper sits on the TOGU Jumper and trains his abdominal muscles. At the same time, he receives balls for one-handed or two-handed kicking or catching. The automatic balancing movements of the upper body make this an ideal exercise for strengthening the core muscles. In addition to the jumper from the starting position, he then trains catching, the basket or falling.
Exercise 2: Strengthening the back and basic techniques while seated
The goalkeeper lies on the TOGU Jumper, receives balls thrown by the trainer to catch and strengthens his back muscles in the process. He then trains catching, basket or falling next to the jumper from a sitting or kneeling position.
Exercise 3: Leg strengthening and flank movement
The goalkeeper stands with one leg on the TOGU Jumper and receives balls kicked by the trainer to catch. This strengthens the leg muscles and trains balance. He then pushes himself up over the TOGU Jumper and trains the push-off and movement sequence when catching a cross.
