Sprint, Prime, Recover is designed with all in-season field sport athletes in mind. As gym sessions are the most common sessions accounted for by sporting clubs, this program will provide the sessions not so commonly accounted for but well worth the attention. Whether it be Rugby League, Touch Football, Rugby Union, Soccer, AFL or any other sport played on the field, this 8 week in-season program encompasses all types of field sport athletes.
It is important once pre-season subsides that you maintain all the physical qualities you worked so hard to improve during the off/pre-season. With this in mind, this program includes speed, primer and recovery sessions that can often get ignored in-season due to time constraints or training availability in a team setting. Each session is programmed around game-day as this is the most important day of the week during the competitive season but if you need to make changes to your training week then this program also provides the flexibility to do so.
