Rugby Strongman Intermediate Training Programme
Do you know how to improve your athletic performance for Rugby, whilst reducing the risk of injury? If not, then DS Performance training programs are for you.
DS Performance has created an exclusive series of sport-specific, strength & conditioning training programs that have to underpin, evidence-based training methods, which have been put in place to improve your performance for all ages and abilities. All programs have been designed to develop each specific performance variable through the progression of intensity and volume.
This Rugby strength and conditioning training program will focus specifically on strongman training systems to:
- DS Performance training programs are designed to run alongside a skill/sport-specific based training plan. Our programs provide sessions for 3 days of training a week, to alternate between your skill/sport-specific training sessions.
- Our 12-week strength and conditioning training program are broken down into 2 x 6-week cycles, with a de-loading between the two training blocks. This will allow the body to recover, prepare you for the second training phase and reduce any risk of injury.
- Along with your training program this book contains a supporting guide to mobility training. This guide uses myofascial release, static stretching, and activation work to mobilize the major body parts used in training.
- Designed to reduce the risk of injury and avoid bad training habits through our sport-specific training programs. We provide training programs designed by ex-team GB athletes and coaching staff that have practical and applied experience through a wide range of individual and team-based sports.
- Our program has been developed to bring elite training methods to everyone, from all levels of sporting ability. Our mission is to make training programs utilized by professional athletes available to all sporting enthusiasts and performers.
The intermediate training level is for when you have conditioned the body to train at a higher intensity, but you are still not ready for the competition phase of training. This level of programmes bridges the gap between general conditioning and competition phase of training, to achieve your optimal performance.
We have included strongman training as part of our performance programme range because of the variation it brings with so many training methods being utilised. These programmes are designed to prepare you for higher intensity training phases.
Strongman training is a great training method for conditioning athletes early on in a training cycle. This is why we have placed it at the beginning of our performance range for rugby, so it can be used as a general conditioning phase of training.
We have utilised strongman training because of the many different exercises and lifts that it covers. The large variation of lifts allows you to train many different performance variables in one programme, including strength endurance, stability and anaerobic capacity.
