The first article today is an overview of the psychology behind rugby performance. The goal of sports psychology is to get you to play to 100% of your physical abilities and potential.The mind is the key in almost everything you do in life and playing sports is no different. Read todays article for elements to consider about your mind set during a game.

The second feature is on Emotional freedom technique (EFT). This powerful tool can transform your mind set, remove negative emotions or concerns about performance and even help physical injuries.It is rapidly expanding and has widespread application to rugby players.

It is also an invaluable method to be used by people looking to lose weight. It can break connections to foods and allow you to go on to achieve your goals.

One last bit of information is the Lead Britain to Wellness campaign. It is not rugby related but may be of interest to you or your friends/family. I have joined up with 9 other personal trainers from across the UK.

Over the next ten weeks we will all take a Seminar. I am not sure when I am speaking but do follow the link to sign up for the series. The first 500 places are free and the teleseminar series begins today.

Hope your training is going well

My video pod cast about metabolic typing.

The fundamentals of strength training.

Today I provide a link to the recent pod cast I recorded with Pod 3 TV. The 30 minute show was about metabolic typing. You can watch a 5 minute high light of this recording by following the first link today.

Metabolic typing is the most effective nutrition strategy you can take to gain a six pack and maximise the results you get from your training. Rugby players seem to follow the conventional wisdom of body builder magazines and shakes.

The problem with this is the advice is poor and results in most players holding onto their beer bellies and obtaining inferior results compared to eating right. I urge you to look into metabolic typing further

The second article covers another area dominated by body builder advice and equally as ineffective for rugby performance as living off protein shakes. That is strength training and the overall approach to weight lifting

Read this article to gain understanding into how you are exercising at the moment and ways to improve your weight lifting routine.

Hope your training is going well
