Training or game only on SundayNazrik: I use to play rugby not professionally but socially for clubs. Due to injuries & other commitments I had to give up on it. But occasionally I have a touch session every now & then. I would like to get back in to shape & get on the field.Gracius Billy: Rugby all Programs,, Chest injuryTom David: I’m looking at what’s the best diet and supplements to help me train, recover and gym. Training hard 2/3 times a week and get gym work done too. Very important being in the second rowTom David: I’m definitely needing help with supplements that give that little extra, often shattered the day after training and my gym work suffers because of it. Lookin for help with that really. Nutrition and supplementsLee Yun Escol Casinillo: Is hyperthropy program important if you are already huge or has bulky muscles? If so, How many weeks of hypertrophy prior to competition in a periodized program?Gracius Billy: Thanks for accepting.....but I have a question....is possible to continue playing rugby even you have Chest Cancer?Kenny Chukwuma: Cheers, just wanted to ask about the progressions aspect of the conditioning sessions. Specifically, how does one periodize their conditioning training to see linear progress and once that's no longer attainable, continue to progress beyond that sticking point. Also what types of conditioning would be best to prioritise if your week involves other training sessions?Gil Martin: My question is how and what can I do to improve performance, strength and insurance after the age of 44?More on Rugby Muscle Facebook GroupInstagramYouTubeWebsite with ArticlesSupport the show
