Description

Dr Marcos Agostinho (@MarcMedMD) asks Professor Peter Krustrup (http://ow.ly/9slg30koLv1) about the history of football fitness. What is it? Does it involve games/competition? Who are the main beneficiaries? And what of ‘walking football’ – what does that entail? This short podcast is a celebration of the health benefits of football and it provides powerful practical examples of what can be done. Kudos!

The 2nd International Football and Medicine Conference will be held in Odense, Denmark, on 25-26th January 2019.
