Rugby Fitness in the Two Weeks Before Xmas
We have a break in our rugby season so now is the time when most people put there feet up.
However, if you play your cards right then you can make some serious inroads to your rugby fitness.
How?
Well I am trying a period of super-accumulation by training my a**e off for two weeks to coincide with a quiter week of training around the Xmas period.
Expect:
1) Body Fat Loss
2) Lean Muscle Gains
But don't expect them during the time you are training!
Pay particular attention to nutrition and supplementation too - plenty of fish oil, protein and green drinks to remain as alkaline as possible ( I have Phil Richards to thank for this)
Plus I am horsing into Death Circuits around our club training nights.
Fun - not really. Worth it - of course.
