    The Rugby Thread

    Ok...its pretty hard to find some information on training for rugby here so, how about all the players put their knowledge into this thread?

    Ok- Here's mine

    WORKING 'THE CORE'.

    This is a reletively new thing in rugby, but it is very important.

    I have been training mine for a few months and feel a world of difference in my game, for example- in a ruck, where are you gonna buckle- Your legs? Nope. It would be in your mid section.

    Now- How to work this-

    Go on your knees and put your hands together far above your head.

    Suck in your belly button into your back, without tensing your abs.

    practice skills- passing, kicking, lineouts, setplays, breakdowns (rucks/mauls) tackling etc..
    work on fitness- combination of explosive speed and endurance

    ...

    nothing beats a ruck, you gotta guard yourself hardcore if your in the bottom, also a skill to learn is to kick the HOOKS in the knees if you start to kick you first ....filthy bastards!

    Ok, some help on getting better-

    Go to as many training sessions as you can- I train 5 times a week with the club and school. I eat enough to still make reasonable gains, rugby training isnt really challenging for me anymore.

    The best way to get better is through experience and learning the rules.
