Gainline: Impact is THE year round programme that follows on from the other standalone products in the Gainline series. A programme designed to cover all the bases in-season especially; gone are the days where you could only be strong, or only be fast - Gainline is here to establish you as one of the most physically gifted athletes on the pitch at any given time.
This programme has it all: the priority sessions follow a 3-day lower/upper/full body split so that your total body athleticism can be prioritised throughout the week, as well as having optional conditioning, speed or pump sessions for topups where required. Gainline: Impact has you covered regardless of your goal.
As a full time Strength & Conditioning coach, and semi-professional athlete, this programme is made for you by someone with experience on both sides of touchline aiming for the same goals. If you are an aspiring athlete seeking the full package this season, Gainline: Impact is for you. Be the athlete you don't want to play against.
