Another Spanish sports daily published similar before-and-after photos and argued that the star has “lost his explosiveness and velocity” and is “worn out”。 The cause, according to the news paper, is his poor physical fitness.
However, the player’s coach, frank Rijkaard, insists that he’s satisfied with Ronaldinho’s form and fitness. And after Barcelona’s victory over Atheltic Bibao on Sunday, Ronaldinho challenged photographers to take pictures of him when he took off his shirt.
“I don’t have anything to hide,”he said.
Fellow Brazilian Ronaldo, 30, of Real Madrid, faced similar criticism before the 2006 World Cup. But the criticism didn’t come from a bunch of sports reporters: it came from the president of Brazil.
“So, what is it?”Brazil’s President Luiz Inacio Lula Silva asked the national soccer team’s coach in his office last June, according to the Assiciated Press. “Is he (Ronaldo)fat or not?”
“He is very strong, president,” Carlos Alberto Parreira reportedly said at the time. “He is not that boy anymore. His body type has changed.”
The game of football demands (要求)that players put as much emphasis on(重视) fitness(身体健康) as they can do(替代put emphasis) on dribbling(运球), passing(传球) or shooting(射门)。
During a proper(适当的,专门的) training(训练) regimen(常规训练) , football players normally(通常) follow(遵循, 跟随,理解) a load(运动量, 负荷)-fatigue(疲劳)-recovery(恢复) pattern(模式)。 They push their body toward a higher mark of fitness and experience a slight and brief drop in performance. Then they begin the recovery process, which will ideally carry their performance to an even higher plane.
However, sometimes non-physical factors can influence a player’s poor fitness. in Ronaldinho’s case, for instance, people – often unnamed – have blamed everything from the pressure of contract negotiations to personal problems and too many advertising commitment. (381 words)
