S4 Ep1 - 8 Months Out: How I’d Prep for the World Cup (If I Was You)

The GB Sports Performance Podcast

Show Notes

Eight months out from the Tag Rugby World Cup, what should your training actually look like? I'm breaking down exactly how I’d structure World Cup prep if I was you. From foundational strength training and sprint mechanics to load management, conditioning and injury prevention, this is a no-nonsense roadmap for everyday athletes who still compete hard in their 30s and 40s. If you’re relying on team training alone, doing random gym sessions, or ignoring niggles - you’re heading straight for the bench! This is about structured sports performance, smart speed training, and building resilience that lasts through tournament week. Ready to stop guessing? Coaching applications are open (link below).

And don't forget to subscribe if you’re not done competing yet.
