Kieron Dyer says he is reaping the benefits of a special training regime and hopes to repay the faith shown in him by Queens Park Rangers.

"I have been put on a special training programme and I haven't missed a session this season so it must be working.

Intensity

"There is a lot of sport science involved. We take saliva and urine tests in the morning and if my saliva test is a bit high, they pull me out of training or modify it. They take a swab and it can tell you if you're feeling stressed and if your body is not 100 per cent right. "My sessions are all high intensity. In the past I have been coasting in training because I wanted to save myself for the match. Now I train like I am in a game." QPR decided to offer Dyer a new deal in the summer even though they were bringing in a host of new recruits, and the former England international is happy to be part of such an ambitious club. "That was a huge vote of confidence for me," he added. "I hope I have a lot of games left in me. "These are exciting times for QPR and I am looking to the future, not the past."
