As you are planning for the new season you should be also thinking about conditioning programs for your players.
Sitting down the beach might be doing wonders for your players' tans but their fitness levels will almost certainly be taking a back seat. In order to help you get your players back into a state of rugby-readiness this Speed Session works on improving your players' agility, speed and endurance.
The crux of this session will be centred on getting your players running, improving their speed and endurance as well as looking at the movement required by specific players. Through the course of this gruelling interval session your players will get back into the habit of making darting runs, performing convincing dummy moves and running with the ball in hand.
What sets this session apart from just any old fitness session is its focus on position play. Your players will be running with purpose, visualising how their runs in training will be implemented in a game situation whilst also concentrating on improving their change of pace and turning at speed.
Get your players rugby-ready today with this pre-season conditioning session.
