Research Fellow @LJMU • HPSA @CASESsocial • CSci @science_council • CSCS, RSCC*D @NSCA
In January 2018, I began my doctoral journey @LJMU with a vision to give rise to new research by blending the evidence-base (the ‘SCIENCE’) and my experiences (the ‘ART’) working as a applied practitioner in the @premierleague for over a decade.

🧠 Carga físico-cognitiva: Además de la carga física, la rehabilitación debe medir el esfuerzo mental. Se propone usar el índice NASA-TLX para monitorear la demanda cognitiva en los ejercicios en campo.
🏋️ Desafío progresivo en la práctica: El CCC actualizado añade el modelo de desafío extendido, donde se equilibran la dificultad de la tarea y la especificidad deportiva. Permite ajustar la exposición progresiva al caos.
🛡️ Organización defensiva: El retorno progresivo al juego incluye fases de defensa: 1️⃣ Proteger el área. 2️⃣ Defender el área. 3️⃣ Defender la mitad de campo. La toma de decisiones en estas fases influye en la recuperación neuromuscular.
⚽ Organización ofensiva: La rehabilitación debe incluir subfases del juego ofensivo: 1️⃣ Construcción. 2️⃣ Creación. 3️⃣ Finalización. Cada fase demanda tareas específicas que deben reflejarse en la progresión del entrenamiento.
🏟️ El modelo de juego como base: El retorno al deporte debe replicar las demandas tácticas y físicas de la competición. Integrar patrones de juego, roles específicos y toma de decisiones mejora la transferencia al deporte.
🧠 ¡Simplemente magistral este artículo de Taberner y colaboradores (2025)! 💪 El modelo Control-Chaos Continuum (CCC) para el proceso de rehabilitación y return to play (desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar) tras una lesión en el fútbol de élite. ¡¡¡Espectacular!!!
