James Haskell Rugby World Cup Fitness Training 2

[R4Reach]

@danielwheelwright Daniel, all of this is very functional for rugby. Pillar Stregth development. Conditioning. Power. Tortional strength. The list goes on. And yes, Hask had a very good world cup.

@danielwheelwright The press ups and ball slams are 'bread and butter. for a back row forward. Think explosive tackle and then getting back on your feet. Will leave anyone seriously gassed!

What's Haskell's 1 rep max on bench press?? or what is it roughly?

[MrJohnnyJoyce]

@beechyboy22 60 kilos

[ShizzyFromYesterday]

@MrJohnnyJoyce somehow i doubt its 60kg considering im not 105kg and am no where near as strong as this guy, especially as i have also seen Ugo Monye doing 120kg with reps and he is a back, you will probs find its more along the line of 180kg

[MrJohnnyJoyce]

@ShizzyFromYesterday who cares what it is

[ShizzyFromYesterday]

@MrJohnnyJoyce I thought you might of, otherwise you wouldn't of answered it, just saying is all

[MrJohnnyJoyce]

@ShizzyFromYesterday i was joking u rodent. who cares hes massive probably dont do much bench work anyway all core stuff.

@R4Reach - Is James training off his own back (i.e. he's not required by the England camp to do this)?

Do other England players have their own personal coach? Certainly looks more fun (but hard!) then some training sessions I've been to.

[R4Reach]

@sporegan This is extra work for James on top of what he does in the England camps at Pennyhill Park etc, i.e. he chooses to do the extra work and we look at areas of weakness in his game/physical ability to target and thus improve.

@R4Reach His strenghts must be devastating!!!
