The Silver Fern

<p>Rugby related question Chubbster: what is the general feeling about the new scrum laws? I note you're looking at particular mass goals for next season and wondering where the general consensus is on size as it relates to height and technique.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also what the refs are saying pre-game, because quite honestly I see a lot of the problems coming from the way the ref handles the first few engagements.</p>

Quick shoulder and back session tonight. Felt buggered after work and have crossfit tomorrow morning so it was short and sharp. <br />
<br />
Deadlifts superset with wide grip chins<br />
Military press superset with narrow grip chins<br />
Db bent over row super set with Arnold press

Seems like everyone refers to these exercises in different ways. First time I hear the name Hindu pushups and Hindu squats and I've been doing these for years.

heavy bench and shoulder press perhaps, just limit to the compund movements.

gutted - guttered is what you do when bowling...<br />
<br />
well that's wicked on the rugby front, give it death.

mate, I don't think you need to go to classes and stuff like that - it becomes time consuming and you will end up not going, or getting bored and pissed off with too much time wasting etc.<br />
<br />
SImple, just stretch, stretch, and stretch some more. While watching TV, get on the floor and stretch, after training while you are nice and warm, lots of stretching. When cold stretching though don't bounce the stretch, just extend it.<br />
<br />
You should be back up to pace really quickly, it does not take long to get the flexibility back.<br />
<br />
This coming from a bloke that has always been fortunate enough to be very flexible with no work on it. BUt when I do extra stretches, it does not take long to increase that range of motion.

So I've got hi rep back + shoulders Thursday, and hi rep legs Saturday.<br />
<br />
This thread is making me twitchy. Think on Friday I'll drop into the gym and squeeze in some bear taming.<br />
