Program Description
Maintain strength during rugby season. No cardio sessions included as rugby practice and drills should provide enough. All rep changes are meant to go off of what/how you're feeling on a given day. If you're sore, go lighter. If you're feeling fresh, go heavier. It's meant to give a small framework of mandatory minimum of exercises that shouldn't take more than an hour. You can replace the pullovers with other exercises but I've found the pullover is a solid upper body exercise. Also, I add in dips at least one day a week if I have time. You can replace the pullover with dips. Can also swap rows for pullups, pendlay rows, t bar, etc. Just hit your major areas minimum twice a week regardless of the exercise or angle.
