The GKT method
Three decisions before taking an exercise onto the pitch.
Measure the load
Connect duration with dive volume (how many times the goalkeeper dives per set) to understand the position-specific cost of the exercise.
volume and a ceiling per microcycle day
Confirm the intention
Connect the choice to a source and to the session’s concrete objective.
an explicit reason behind every choice
The proof
This is a GKT exercise.
Not a loose idea. A card with the diagram and the five axes that decide whether it fits today.

From card to session
Blocks add up into a week, with load always in view.
Group exercises into blocks, watch dive volume add up, and check each day lines up with the microcycle (the training week, counted in days until the next match) — the load controls itself.

- Breakaway from a narrow angle4 × 3 = 12
Within the day’s ceiling, with 14 to spare.
The evidence
51 ± 11
dives per session — the ceiling is measured, not guessed
Every choice has a source.
Ecological dynamics and the constraints-led approach (designing the exercise so the decision emerges from the rules of the game, not verbal instructions): every load ceiling has a reference behind it, down to the smallest warning. Defensible to your technical director.
