Am quite unfit atm for a lad my age (19) i will prob join my village team in Aug, and i wanna head start on fitness as most of them drink every weekend etc but are decent footy players lol.
I was thinking HIT would be good maybe once a week then ive thought of a custom made treadmill routine i would prob do the below routine for 10-20 mins 2-3 times a week, im quite unfit so i dont wanna go too hard until i get into it:
15 sec walk
30 sec jog
15 sprint
SS cardio isnt as good as HIT or the custom routine imo for footy,what do you's think?

what i do is go to my local football pitch and use half of the pitch as a square as follows:
start from any of the corners you like, first i walk from corner 1 to corner 2 then a slow jog from corners 2 -3 faster jog from corners 3-4 and an all out sprint from corners 4 back to 1
hope this helps

I don't think HIIT is the way to go if you are unfit. I think you won't be able to keep the level of intensity required to get the results you want. I would suggest SS until you fitness levels improve and then start HIIT.

HIIT is really tough mate, so as stated above just do normal cardio

Yeah i prefer to do my cardio at the gym, but there is a footy pitch beside it anyway so i could do treadmill and the walk, jog, sprint, how many times a week mate? I aint got no footy prac until august so i can get a head start now.

Got to mix it up here boys. You shouldn't be doing one or the other I would do one day as SS and another as HIIT, maybe even add in some SAQ drills too. If you're serious about getting to your best for next season and haven't played competitively for a while then do both.
Our players (not me I'm a keeper!) will usually doing something like Tues - SS, Thurs - HIIT, Sun - SAQ based stuff with and without a ball during pre-season.

Well i dont like doing cardio at home but i may have to as i go to the gym 3 times a week (which there if a footy pitch beside it) and i train legs on one day so cardio after that session on legs would be a killer, so i can do cardio 2 times a week atm, i may add a steady state session in at home, i suppose that could be done then the other 2 days at gym i may do treadmill work and a session of footy pitch work.
