I always tell you to have a “why” for everything you do, so I certainly must back that up and have a “why” for everything I do….
I developed this app because I want to give you everything that I have learned (on my own and from great mentors and coaches) over 23 years of playing this beautiful game.
I didn’t start working and developing my “technical base” and “comfort with the ball” until I went to Europe at age 19. It wasn’t “too late,” but I wish I had started earlier.
This is an app that I wish that I had when I was 6 years old.
I believe 1-on-1 Technical Training coaches are very valuable, but you also have to do some work on your own outside of team training and those 1-on-1 sessions, plus they can get expensive! This app is much, much, much less expensive than having to pay for a 1-on-1 private coach every single session.
One month with this app is most likely cheaper than 1 individual session with any coach around the globe.
You can get full-access to your coach Eric Friedlander and you can ask him any questions you want.
“The game of soccer requires you to be confident and comfortable on the ball and is more than just playing 90 minutes and requires the whole body to be engaged. RicFit helps prepare players technique and first touch as well as their bodies to prevent potential injuries and help them to perform at their best!”
“Mastering the basic ball work that Ric provides will lead to better ball control, confidence with the ball, and overall better performance on the field! Ric will provide you with sessions that will make your body feel good and well recovered and will change your career!”
“Ric‘s ballwork program has helped me become a much better technical player and more comfortable on the ball. His advice on nutrition, training and recovery have helped me succeed as a professional player. Ric helped change my future so I could be where I am and for that I thank him so much!”
“The work that Ric provides is really extraordinary. Nowadays there is a lot of information out there, but Ric has a special way of connecting with footballers.”
“If you want to get to the next level, Ric is definitely your man. The amount of detail that he puts into everything he does is second to none. If you’re a younger footballer; I highly advise you to work with him!”
“Ric’s programs are amazing; so much detail and thought goes into it. Most importantly, he’s a top guy and so knowledgeable about nutrition, training and football.”
“Ric’s training made me feel so much more confident on the pitch and in life. I have gotten stronger, more consistent and become a better footballer. He has put me in a position to succeed in life and chase my dreams as a footballer.”
“Eric understands this whole process fully as he’s done it himself. His programming is very purposeful and intentional. I highly recommend Ric to anyone who really wants to push to the next level in their game and mind.”
“This is not just Eric’s job, it is his lifestyle. He is constantly thinking and learning about the game and the body, and most importantly, how to help people reach their full potential.”
“Eric has helped me so much with things on & off the pitch to get me to the level I’m at right now. I have been taking big strides on the pitch & a lot of it has to do with his guidance and mentorship.”
“I saw a lot of improvement in many aspects of my game. Ric also helped me improve my diet & psychology, helping me through some difficult times.”

When you install the app on Apple or Android, yes you can listen to music or podcast while using the app. BUT I would take a second to consider whether you should or not. Hear me out…
It has been shown in the science that when you try to multitask and concentrate on too many things at once, quality goes down.
Cal Newport (an author who specializes in focus and deep work) has said that “the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task will most help you achieve excellence in everything that you do and enjoy the deep sense of fulfillment that comes from reaching a level of true craftsmanship,” which is our goal within the app.
I have seen it for myself first-hand. When I train with just with the timer and headphones in my ears, and I just focus on the ball and every single rep (and my beautiful voice ;)), my training quality is so much higher.
I like to call it moving meditation because that’s basically what it is. You are focusing on your breath and the ball and no external stimuli.
Absolutely. At 28 years old, it’s still what I do :). I don’t believe I am too good to train on concrete, a track or a basketball court. Obviously, it would be much better for my body (joints & bones) to train on a real pitch (grass or turf), but sometimes circumstances don’t allow it..
Nowadays, a lot of pitches’ are only pay to play, they are locked or they are in use. So, your goal is to always make the most of your situation and what you have. If you don’t have access to a pitch, find space somewhere else to get your reps in.
As I always say, SOMETHING IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN NOTHING!
I still do and will always stick to my word. The QUALITY of your training is much more important than the QUANTITY (how much) you train. As you will hear within the voice recordings of each exercise, I always talk about focusing on each and every rep at a time.
The “quantity’ part and the reason we are “calculating your time” is because it serves as an excellent motivator. Even for myself, as a 28 year old footballer, when I see my training time go up, I get those “feel good hormones hits” and it makes me feel like I’m doing that extra work to get myself to the next level.
So, we can use that to our advantage. The “total timed trained” feature will motivate you to keep coming back to improve your numbers. As a result, you will come back to the pitch, which will allow you to train with quality, with the ultimate goal of overall improvement!
I promise you that everything within this app was well thought out over my 24 year playing career. I always ask myself “what would have helped me become a better footballer?”
Obviously, our goal is to get you on a wall to improve your first touch. My biggest tip is to do your research. There are more walls around you than you may think, lol.
So, drive around, walk around, look around and I am sure you will find one.
If not, it’s absolutely okay. You can do 2 things:
The ideal situation would be to have you training on grass with football boots. But, we don’t live in an ideal/perfect world. So, as I always say, you need to do what you can, with what you have, where you are! This is the “perfect situation” to put those words into action. As you will see, I am wearing running shoes training on a basketball court in a lot of the exercises, because that is what was available to me!
Yes. I have already spoken to my parents about this question. They did everything to send me to places to help me develop as a player but didn’t know much about developing me themselves.
If you want to save a lot of money but develop your child into an excellent soccer player, this is exactly the app for that.
This can help you and your child bond and help them improve as a player, (A 2-in-1 Deal) !
Absolutely, I highly encourage coaches’ to use some of the drills within the app to help develop their players.
If the player is more advanced, you make make the drill more “reactionary.”
Here are a Couple Solutions:
If you are a player who has that intrinsic motivation and desire to get better on your own and you are willing to put in the consistent time and work to make it happen.
If you are a player that doesn’t have the ability to accurately self-assess yourself. If you can’t concentrate and focus on the task at hand to improve long term, the app may not be the best for you.
RicFit On-Demand is for players of all ages. I would love players to get on the app as young as possible so they can develop their technical skill and ability on their own, learn the value of hard/smart work and truly take their development into their own hands. The app will help you build a very solid technical base to advance yourself as a footballer.
If you go through the weekly session one time from start to finish, it can be anywhere from 30-90 minutes of actual time of training, depending on how long you do each drill for.
Each drill allows you to train for 30 Seconds-2 minutes. You will also need some rest between each drill and some time to check out the next drill.
It depends on your level as a player and fitness level. Generally, I recommend being as fresh as possible for each drill so you can do each rep with high quality. Though, if you want to challenge your fitness level, you can shorten your rest period.
I would recommend anywhere from 15-75 seconds rest in between drills.
Absolutely not. That is actually the reason that I have split them up into certain sections. Some days you may want to work on a specific aspect of your game so you can focus just on that specific section.
Yes, you absolutely can. Though, you may want to test it out and see how it makes you feel.
For example: I would start with seeing how your body reacts after completing only 5 exercises in each section, and judging how your body feels.
If you feel good (of course), increase the time on the app on team training days.
The most important thing is to listen to your body and build up your training slowly. Quality of training is much more important than quantity or training.
Same as the answer above. I would test both. You can do some parts of the app to get yourself activated and ready for your team session and complete the rest of your app session after team training. Though as I’ve said above, listen to your body and see how you feel.
I will give you access to the current weekly session as well as the previous three weeks.
I will also have all of the exercises in an exercise database. So, if you liked a specific exercise and you want to repeat it, (as long as you have the name), you will always have access to it.
The more you train; the higher you will rank up as a leader domestically (in your country) and globally (world-wide). But, as always, I care more about the quality of your training rather than the quantity of your training!
Simpler than you think ☺. Click on the button on your home page that says “start my free trial,” update your information and you’re ready to go.
A lot of the drills will have progressions and regressions within them. If you can’t find a regression, do your best to make the exercise as simple as possible.
Having a wall is an important part of the RicFit On-Demand App Training.
I am positive that if you are determined to improve your first touch and passing; you will find one!
I would recommend checking nearby schools, racquetball courts, parks, parking garages and certain gym areas (do a simple search on Google Maps). You can also use your living room couch or bed as long as your Mom doesn’t get angry 😉
Commit to being creative and doing whatever it takes to find yourself a rebounder and you will make it work.
The RicFit On-Demand App can be a great tool for you to come back from your injury and get yourself sharp again. It allows you to sharpen specific technical areas of your game, which will allow you to be more confident and comfortable when you step back onto the pitch.
It’s also excellent for a player coming back from an injury who is allowed to train but not yet fully cleared and ready for full contact.
Please make sure you ask your doctor and/or Physio if it’s okay to use the RicFit On-Demand App. The last thing you want to do is push yourself too soon and get yourself injured again.
As always, if you feel any type of pain, stop immediately, notify a trusted health professional and never push through it!
I want to be a resource for you! If you aren’t sure if you’re doing a drill correctly, do the best you can using my audio and video during the session.
After the drill is over, take a video of yourself (or have someone else take one) and send it to me for feedback: ricfitondemandapp@gmail.com.
