Here at Vibes Fitness, we have rugby training programs for your workouts to improve your rugby, Rugby League and Rugby Union.


Used to be called "A man's Game", however it is becoming increasingly popular with females. A game of two 40 minute halves with teams of 15 players (Union) 13 players (League), who are generally well built especially for Rugby League. There's also rugby sevens which is a completely different game- with 7 a-side and 7 minutes each way. To become good at this sport,

You will require a range of physical abilities, as well as a strong mental attitude with good discipline.

As the players are all differnet shapes and sizes, each individual has their own set role in the game. Players come together as a team, every player can benefit from the following basic physical requirements, to develop a team with no weak links:

- Explosive acceleration and fast sprinting speed
- Muscular endurance and strength in both the lower and upper body
- Muscular balance and high levels of neuro-muscular co-ordination
- Proprioception and agility, the ability to know where your body is, and be able to move it
- Discipline to take orders and decisions, as well as putting the team first
- Good flexibility to avoid injury, and to give yourself a greater range of movement
- Correct balance between your quadriceps and hamstrings, as well as strength imbalances between your left and right leg

Speed work is the first step.

Look at the plyometric circuit to develop explosive power, aim to do this circuit no more than once a week, and certainly not on days before a game, as this type of circuit takes a few days to recover from.

Then Muscular Endurance.
We design a circuit for you to do once a week to develop muscular endurance, alongside a skill session or on a day after a match.

Then weight training, strength, training, co-ordination skills, ladder drills,ball drills, stretching etc.

So call us today if you are up for the challenge and want to learn new skills to improve your game...
