Follow the Action

Setting the tone with a breakdown-inspired warmup designed to wake the players up and get them moving with purpose. Every element focuses on communication, engagement, and reinforcing key breakdown principles—ensuring we build the right habits from the very first drill.
Kicked off with breakdown introduction, then moved into MAS run sets, aiming to get volume on the legs. Between each run, we sharpened our passing skills under fatigue. 🏃🏉
Every session is a step closer to greatness. The hard work we put in today will pay off tomorrow. Let’s keep pushing, no matter the challenge. 💪🏉 #rugbytraining #chasinggreatness #neversettle
