Whats your training background? How long you been training? What have you been doing up till now? Are you in the offseason? Are you in inseason? How long do you have until preseason fitness/your season starts?

been training weights for a couple of years, but legs for only about 6months.

this is my first time back to rugby since school (2 years ago) but have decent fitness and pace through football. it's off season and preseason doesn't start for 6-7 weeks

well i would do some basic strength program to get a base over summer... wouldnt bother adding plyos... but make sure you do running aimed at rugby...

Try the 1-6 prinple program by Charles Poliquin. Got me great gains, put 20kg on my front squat!
