Penalties
Experiments 1:
I used this session 2 times a day, 5 days a week, and filled the rest of the program with "Rest". Training after match day=yes.
Experimental results:
Heading:
13 players were improved, 14 points of improvement in total.
Set Pieces:
10 players were improved, 11 points of improvement in total.
Penalty taking:
09 players were improved, 10 points of improvement in total.
Crossing:
07 players were improved, 09 points of improvement in total.
Experiments 2:
I used this session 3 times a day, 5 days a week, and filled the rest of the program with "Rest". Training after match day=no.
Experimental results:
Set Pieces:
14 players were improved, 21 points of improvement in total.
Heading:
14 players were improved, 18 points of improvement in total.
Penalty taking:
13 players were improved, 15 points of improvement in total.
Crossing:
11 players were improved, 14 points of improvement in total.
Conclusions:
This is weird... It makes sense that Penalty Taking and Set Pieces are improved, but it makes no sense at all that Heading and Crossing are also improved.
I think I know what 's going on.. SI has connected Penalty Taking and Set Pieces, so that a training regime that improves one of them improves the other one too (since Penalty Taking is a subgroup of Set Pieces). They have also connected Set Pieces with Heading and Crossing, since these attributes are very important when a cross comes in from a corner or a free kick. But they forget that no matter how good I am at shooting penalty kicks, I will never know how to head the ball correctly.

Heading
Experiments 1:
I used this session 2 times a day, 5 days a week, and filled the rest of the program with "Rest". Training after match day=no.
Experimental results:
Nothing improves.
Experiments 2:
I used this session 3 times a day, 5 days a week, and filled the rest of the program with "Rest". Training after match day=no.
Experimental results:
Technique:
12 players were improved, 16 points of improvement in total.
Dribbling:
10 players were improved, 14 points of improvement in total.
Passing:
10 players were improved, 13 points of improvement in total.
Agility:
08 players were improved, 14 points of improvement in total.
Balance:
07 players were improved, 11 points of improvement in total.
Conclusions
α) The attribute "heading" does not improve here.
β) It makes sense that technique and passing improve, since many passes are made by headers.
γ) It makes sense that agility improves. This must have something to do with what the description of the session says, that the neck muscles strengthen. The same goes for balance.
δ) It 's easier to dribble when you have strong muscles ...in the neck!!
