 Speed & Power

12-week programme

Who is this for?

If you want to be faster than your opponent on the field, this is the programme for you. A 12-week holistic youth athletic development programme for youth development phase athletes to develop the underpinning skills & capacities for linear speed and multidirectional speed whilst playing one game per week. Incorporates periodised strength, power and speed sessions.

How many days per week in this programme?

This phase consists of 3 days.

What sessions are included in this programme?

• 1 x Speed and whole-body strength
• 1 x Multidirectional speed
• 1 x Whole body strength and power

How do I plan sessions into my week?

Sessions are organised as follows:

• The Matchday (MD) reference relates to days pre/post game
• MD +1 = 1 day after the game
• MD -3 = 3 days before your next game
• This periodisation will allow you to optimise adaptation and subsequent performance gains by peaking and tapering your training load around the match day schedule.

Do I need any specific equipment?

You will need access to a field, pitch or athletics track and a gym consisting of free weights.
