Product Description
Product Description
Rugby is a sport that embraces players of every shape, size and fitness level. The success a player achieves, no matter what position he plays, will depend on his physical abilities. This book explains how those abilities, and therefore playing performance, can be improved. This book: discusses the mechanics of the human body, the classification of physical abilities and what is needed to succeed; examines the training methodology associated with aerobic, endurance, sprint, agility, plyometric, resistance, flexibility and core training; provides detailed explanations of a wide range of exercises; considers testing, the principles involved in designing training programmes and presents and easy-to-use, ten-step model that allows a player to formulate his own twelve-month training programme.

I have recently started rugby coaching as I can no longer play for medical reasons; and this book provided exactly what I needed to help plan very useful and enjoyable sessions and learn how to monitor progress etc.
We have started pre-season training and the feedback regards the fitness and conditioning training has been very positive indeed.
Fully recommend this product for coaches and players......

i'm a pro athlete and have been for nearly 10 years. i had fallen into the trap of doing the same exercises over and over again. rugby fitness has opened my eyes to that and has led me to re-think my pre-season regime. here's to improvements at all levels. raise a glass to ben wilson. superb.
