So this year I finally have smartened up a little and found carb back loading its been a huge success and now it's time to play rugby, my passion. Can anyone give me a solid routine and cardio (included or not)? I play inside center I need to gain twenty lbs just about but really need to maintain how fast I am. I want to be able to grab a scholarship this year seeing how it's my last year in high school. Thanks guys carb back loading would be my diet .
Have a look at 5/3/1 for athletes by Jim Wendler… Will up your strength while ensuring you are recovering enough for your Rugby specific training.

Bump this! Add in intervals or HIIT with certain metabolic constraints. I'm not sure how long running bouts are in rugby, but I'm going to assume similar to football. So, sprints, prowler, tire/sled drags for 10-45seconds with rest or active recovery at double work cycle length to keep intensity high, but allow for recovery (ie. 1:2 to 1:3 ratio).
Bout the same as football just a little longer but when Jim laird have Kiefer on his show he brought up an interesting book on energy systems but I can't find it do you guys have any clue?
Not Sure of the title of the book, the author was Joel Jamieson his site is http://www.8weeksout.com/2011/05/24/a-new-perspective-on-energy-systems-video/Their is just too much to keep up with.
