Just wondered if anyone had any good cardio HIT style which doesn't involve your legs, looking to do 15 HIT after my Full body Work out but couldn't really sprint after squatting and doing deads....

Right a little background to paint the picture:

I'm currently mid season playing rugby (i play lock) and have had a few hip injuries which i have now recovered from BUT i have major muscle...

I do contribute alot and myslef am fit and fast but in a normal game of rugby you only run a total of less than 40 minutes. All i do to train fitness is club practises which does involve sprint work...

Thats utter tripe! Rugby is a game of 80 minutes which i play every week, less than 40 minutes of that is actual running! There is more jogging, sprinting, strength based activities, set pieces,...

Thanks for all the advice guys, will definitely do heavy deads, then rep front squats and heavier smith ones if i need.

Thanks all

Simple questions really, my gym has a smith machine which i can squat on and an oylmpic bar without a squat rack.
So i can either squat heavy on the smith machine or squat a weight which i can...

Thanks for that, i'll give it a try i think as i'm already struggling to heal up after pre-season, warm up games and gym time.

Looking forward to some deloading in season.

Just wondering if you could show what youa ctually do in the gym per exercise to give a bit more of an idea about the rep range if thats ok?

I was doing 5x5 and liked the idea of 5/3/1 but that...

It's been a while since i've posted but i hadn't ben working out much.

So i hadn't played the end of last season as i had a grion pain, turned out that i managed to rotate my hip backwards (an old...

Well i havent posted for quite a while now. Have been starting at 2nd row in all games so far this season, played a couple at blindside but don't have that fully down yet.

The reason i post is to...

Well we had our first league game last saturday, we were better than the other team, won nealry all the lineouts scrums rucks and mauls but lost by 5 trys!!!!
Why you ask? Well our backs decided...

This might sound a bit strange but i was wanting to get some, opinions help on this matter.

Firstly i was squating and deadlifting fine.

Then a incident playing Rugby left my knee hurt (ran...

I tried the german volume training programme and got half way through realising i had made no real gains compared to my 3 day full body split.

But remember what works for some doesn't work for...

Thats ok, i think that once you get a bit more fitness you might want to move into the No.8 position as you might find you get a lot more ball carrying there but i love player second row.

On the...

Dude at 6'6 you shouldn't be a prop! Try out for second row and use your height and weight where it should be, i doubt very much that you'll ever be very good in the srum at that height.

On the...

I know he's a Hooker thats why i was trying to ask if there are any good young props out there. Where have you seen him play? OR read a review etc.
I follow the saints where he plays but the...

Missing out Haskell is a fatal mistake, he is supreme when it comes to the blindside role!

i do totally agree with Frodo14 on that England need to give it's youth a go but i think there is a need...

I think i'd agree with you there after reading up on the performance of Ree's and Croft. I think ree's will get started well before Croft anyways. They love the Wasps back row!

Well the saints have too many new players, loads of great ones but i don't really reconigse the squad at the momnent, C.Ashton is one to watch out for, also brilliant back row with R.Willson & n.Best...
