Built on the same athletic development principles used with 16 Olympic medalists and 5 Varsity Cup-winning rugby teams — Rugby Blueprint Extra speed & power is a 6-week program designed to build speed and power added to any current rugby season program. Full gym and field or track access required. Zero guesswork.

Feel you have a bit extra in your tank during IN-SEASON? Feel you need to top up to get the extra gear in speed and acceleration? This in gym and on field program can easily be added onto your current regime to give you that edge to outrun your competition! Just add a few minutes after your gym session or before field session.
