[QUOTE="sublicon, post: 143634"] Do a search for "rugby fitness" in Google and you'll find a wealth of stuff. The website I really like that is rugby specific is [url="http://www.scrum.com/1080_1097.php"]here[/url]. The only advice I can give is as far as what you do in the gym is to build your workout around the compound lifts, as you've mentioned and others: squat, deadlift, bench press. Power cleans are definitely a must also, but don't run before you can walk. These lifts work the most muscle groups at once, so they are invaluable to your workout. There's also a wealth of general fitness information [url="http://www.exrx.net/"]here[/url]. I use this site all the time, its really an excellent tool to design well-rounded workouts and to expand your vocabulary in the gym as far as what exercises will be most beneficial to you. [/QUOTE]
