R80 Rugby Pure Power Training

Scrum coach Dave Hewitt demonstrates the latest training system for rugby strength, power, specific technique and core strength.
Two players wearing heavy duty power harnesses are connected back to back.
Both players get into scrum/ruck body positions and attempt to pull the other person backwards using forward driving power (keeping their backs parallel to the ground), strong core and ideal pushing technique.
Excellent for developing optimal biomechanics for all positions in the scrum and fast and effective ruck clear out. A player understands very quickly the perfect/strongest pushing position.
Bonus live training footage with coach head Todd Blackadder included
As designed and used by International Scrum coach Mike Cron

@Outlawzand1 what is that supposed to mean ???

[Outlawzand1]

@MrLilpappy God invented Bears to stop Props from taking over the world lol

@Outlawzand1 i do agree with you that a D-LineMan will not last long in rugby...but just to let you know there bud I DO PLAY RUGBY. and if you must know i play Tight-Head Prop and sometimes i play lock.

@MrLilpappy AF players would do really in Rugby for a couple of minutes.

Then they would be tiring because of the lack of cardio they have, and the DIFFERENT

pace that is set. Rugby is 80 minutes, 2 x 40 min halves, no breaks inbetween like they do after EVERY round of AF.

I seriously doubt any of your 300-400 pound defensive fridge-men could last a few seconds before suffering from a heart attack.

When you guys are ready to shed the protective equipment, let us know ;)

@Outlawzand1 no you are because you think that African Americans are best suited for AF but just to let you know there bud i have seen some African Americans that could destroy a lot of players in Rugby and AF like seriously if one of the greatest players in AF went over to rugby then they could probably hold there own once they know the rules and how to play and that goes for with a rugby player going to play AF they could probably hold there own to.

@Alfa10Rufus Arguing over the internet is like being in the Special Olympics.

You might win.

But you're still a retard.

@Outlawzand1 dude dont know where you are from but seems like you love to make generalizations about certain race not being able to do certain things. it's not just 'big black men' (jungle fever?) who succeed in AF there are other 'big white, samoan, latino men' who do just as well. rugby is nowhere close to being as popular as AF but im sure you will see in the years ahead some 'big black men' having that raw power you talk about them missing. ray lewis will destroy any rugby forward...

[Outlawzand1]

@Alfa10Rufus I bet you didn't even watch this video did you?

I never said anything about explosiveness.

I'm talking about the raw power that rugby forwards have.

Sure you got plenty of big black men who can sprint fast and have

a bit of muscle, but they can only do it for a few seconds before it's break time.

Africans Americans are well suited for AF, but not rugby.

I guarantee you even if your greatest players like Ray Lewis played rugby, they

would have to drop some weight.

@Outlawzand1 haha u kidding? these guys aint nowhere close to match the explosiveness of the nfl players

[Outlawzand1]

I'd love to see those 'tough' black NFL players do this.
