Why You’re Training Hard But Not Seeing It On The Pitch
Description
In this episode of Rugby Muscle, I break down why so many players train hard but still feel cooked when it matters most.
It’s not about pushing harder — it’s about building the right engine. I’ll share what actually works to level up your rugby performance: from zone 2 conditioning to high-output sprints, and how one athlete changed everything by training smarter.
If you’ve ever felt fit but not rugby-fit, this episode is for you.
