The amateur training level is specifically designed to be utilised at the beginning of a new training cycle where you need to condition the body for higher intensity training. It is also the entry level for when you’re new to sport specific strength & conditioning training and a general preparation phase is required, before moving to the next level. 

 

Power output is a serious subject in sport. This is why we have included power in our range of performance programmes for rugby. This is where we focus on increasing and developing your reactive and dynamic strength. Athletes look at power as a combination of speed and strength, which is what these programmes will deliver.

 

Our range of power training programmes for rugby players have been designed to increase your rate of force development and your peak power output, which means you will be able to produce greater forces quicker and for longer. 

 

The power programmes focus on your force production and maximising your performance. This is why they make such a great training programme for a pre competition phase, they set you up ideally for competing. Every athlete wants to produce their best power outputs leading in to competitions and that’s what these programmes give you.
