Just wondered how long players generally had off after Poyet's tweet

Diego Poyet ‏@diegopoyet7 10m
Gym time. Getting ready for pre season

or is it just that Poyet is a true pro that he is already going back to the gym

    after a brief rest week, they have a full training schedule during their break to which they have to adhere to

    I would have thought a professional sportsman would be in the gym anyway

    They have personalised fitness programmes to undertake during the close season. Often they have to report back on a weekly basis so that readings such as pulse and weight etc can be taken.

    a couple of weeks off i imagine, probably less. They're professional athletes so i wouldn't be surprised if they don't have much "time off" for excercise.

    Half a day five days a week for 46 weeks of the year, good work if you can get it :-)

    I also Couldn't be a footballer as I go to watch football on most Saturdays.

    After a fashion.

    Most teams will be back by 1st July but some managers will have them back in mid June. What you do in that time is up to you but if you care about fitness you'll keep it up during your break.

    Winston Bogarde had a four-year break at Chelsea.
    While Kieron Dyer had pretty much his whole career as a vacation.
