On this episode I interviewed Steve Hooper who is a Performance Coach with the Gold Coast Titans rugby league club.

This episode’s main focus of this topic was design and periodization of a conditioning program for rugby league, but has other great takeaways for any team field sport.

Topics discussed…

• Important aspects of a pre season conditioning program
• The metrics Steve looks at to monitor/measure and improve
• What conditioning tests he uses
• How he implements the test results into training
• How he structures a week of conditioning/speed/multidirectional
• A general example of how a conditioning session would look for them
• How he plans gym along side field conditioning and max velocity work
• How this can best be applied at the sub elite level
• Biggest mistakes in designing a pre season conditioning plan
