Getting The Most From Your Training | Making Big Hits and Tackles | Explosive Training | Recovery

Questions Answered this week:- I’m roughly the same minus all the powerlifting and solid strength lol. I took a year off rugby because the birth of my son. Before the year off I was playing winger and hooker. I’m now just turning 30 and need to be able to get my speed and explosiveness back. Did add some quarantine weight which I’m working on getting down. My endurance is still fine (I run about 3 miles every other day). Long story short  I need to be more explosive without damaging my body. Also, love listening to the podcast. Helps keep my motivated.- I have a question about recovery after training? Profesional rugby is very intense. So what should we do for recovery?- I would like to improve my explosiveness in the tackle to help make bigger hits. Could I get some training drills and tips to improve this. The main lifts that I do to focus on power is squats and deadlifting. I do band work to focus on powering through with my arms in the tackle. I have seen improvements over the season I am still not making enough big tackles consistently.- Do you have any recommendations on skill drills that can be done for training when you are by yourself? Support the show
