Rugby is a multi-sprint, multi-activity sport with intervals of ball in play and rest over a period of 80 minutes. Each position has its own particular demands on the player but the generic requirement is to produce high energy, high intensity movements during play.

  • The game is getting faster with more 'ball in play' time
  • Rule changes are encouraging fast open play
  • Professionals have more opportunity to train
  • Modern players need to be multi-skilled
  • Scientific research is improving fitness training methods
