SAS 7s Game Day vs @forwardfoundationsa

“The games went very well. It was a good reflection of where we are as a team. Performance wise, there were good aspects and some things we’re going to continue to work on. But again, that’s the idea behind this. Most importantly, the guys had a good opportunity, and now we’ve got a good way of measuring where they are.” - @chrisdry7

SAS 7s x @sweat_1000

As the boys prepare to head into their upcoming game block, we brought them out to SWEAT1000 for their game-changer. SWEAT, which stands for Specialized Weight Endurance Athletic Training, is about pushing limits. The ‘1000’ represents the calories burned in the 1-hour workout, integrating the best components of interval training, functional training, core stability work, athletic training, and agility training.

Big thank you to the SWEAT1000 team and @andrewsweat1000 and @paulsweat1000 for the incredible experience!

“Programme is going very well. Intensity is picking up. We are at a stage where we are combining training as well as conditioning. We had a good run-in with the @blitzboks this morning and we’re heavily focused to get some good structures and execution for the next block.”
