Question

How can i get fit for rugby in 3 months max?

Answer 1

do a lot of running. Eat many meals, to get your caloric intake up (up near 10 meals a day), and lift weights. This is similar to what pro wrestlers and football players do. Lots of meals, lots of Cardio (running) and LOTS of weight training. Get used to getting beat up too, Rugby is a hardcore sport. No one comes out of a match without a bruise, cut, or bloody. Busted noses, cut eyebrows, cleated legs, etc, are all VERY common and everyone suffers them in Rugby, lol. You gotta be tough to play rugby, believe me, i know, and its fun when you do play, but you're SORE afterwards, lol. The weight training and many meals are key. The Running will keep your stamina up and help when you're running with the ball, lol. Unless you wanna be a kicker or lineman, lol. In any case, running is good for you, lol.

Answer 2

it depends what position you are going for because obviously wingers and centres do not need to be 18 stone - they need to be agile.  however, if you are a forward then make yourself solid instead of quick!

Answer 3

a regular,consistant training regime and diet aappropriate to the position you intend to be playing.serious amounts of cardio vascular exercise coupled with good sessions on the weights.do take advice from the trainer in the gym.they know better than you!!! but to be honest,no matter how much you do,nothing will get fit enough for the game apart from playing it.Good luck and enjoy

Answer 4

play lots and lots of rugby!

practise makes perfect

Answer 5

always eat breakfast. you need 3 square meals a day. I play 2nd row and prop for a team in county durham, the way i train is using alot of resistance training for example, using tackle bags and ruck pads. when i was young my dad used to take me to the ambulance station where he worked and i would push his car around. cardio is important. ball handling is very important. and remember, if your body starts to get tired it means your just getting started. being a forward you still need to be fast to get to rucks and mauls to drive the opposition back and gain the yards. im 18 stone and can run 100m in 12 and a half seconds

Answer 6

Start by swimming and cycling everyday. Then when you're shoulders are broader and you're a bit more muscly then move onto weights. Don't do weights first

Answer 7

depends on your size and fitness now  stamina and weight come in handy

Answer 8

Train like an Airborn Ranger!

Answer 9

Do weight training

Answer 10

Jog. Increase your distance every day.

Answer 11

Run.  My first Rugby game, I had no idea what was in store for me.  80 straight minutes of running.  I would say take a ball out on to the field, kick it and chase it.  When you get there, dive on it and then get up and do it all over again.  Do this for 10 min at a time with small breaks.  If you have a steep hill anywhere around, run up it and back down a bunch of times.  Our team does anywhere from 10-30 "hills" and do 10 pushups every time we get to the bottom.  Run lots of short sprints.  Run Run Run.  Do some weights too, but mainly run.  If you can not be worn out half way through the game, then you will be at the same strength level as the big strong guys.  RUN!!!
