For those who say Antonio Conte has no heart, it seems the Italian is human just like me and you after all.
Antonio Conte has admitted he is worried about his heart as the clubs form fluctuates this season.
Can anyone blame him though? the Blues have been up and down this season
With a loss to Liverpool and Arsenal and a 2-2 draw against Swansea City and losing to West Ham in the EFL Cup fourth round midweek, Smashing United 4-0, it certainly has been a trying time for the newly appointed Chelsea Boss.
Conte in a press conference joked about using a heart monitor.
“I am worried about this [heart],” Conte said.
“For this season I try to do my own training sessions to maintain good physical form.“I know I risk a bit, but I might consider putting a GPS system on myself to monitor my heart-rate during a game.”
The 47-year-old Italian added: “Whenever I have time, I run. For 30, 40 minutes. I change the routes.
“When we finish training, if I’m not tired, I have my period of fitness. We have four pitches here and I run around them. Sometimes I try to involve my staff.”
“At the start of my career, I would eat very well and I felt the benefit of it. So when I became a coach, I wanted to have the same idea,” he continued.
“You don’t ban anything. You just aim for the right balance between protein, carbohydrates and fat. It’s important in preventing injuries and in recovery. You are fresh mentally, too. I have tried it on myself.”
