For this weeks Strength Chat, I caught up with a guy I have known and worked with for a long time. He is a strength and conditioning coach with over 6 years’ experience and is currently the Head of Youth Strength and Conditioning at Huddersfield Giants Rugby League, Adam Megretton. With Adams experience of working in the scholarship programme all the way up to the first team, this episode was a great insight into the strength and conditioning world of top-level rugby league. We chatted about the difference in training, if any, between scholarship, academy and first team programmes. We also covered the importance of culture and how to build on the strength athletes already have and how to implement that into speed and power training.
