The Three-Pillar System that gets rugby players rugby ready:
MAS-based conditioning for an engine that owns every minute from 1 to 80.
Pillar 02 Gym to Pitch TransferStrength that shows up in games: leg drive, contact power, legs that don't fold.
Pillar 03 Plug In and Play~25-minute structured sessions that slot around work, club training and life.
"Basically: strong, broad, lean… and you don't die after 3 phases."
The Rugby Ready Method: What We Do
Most lads either lift loads but gas out… or run loads and get weaker… or try both and break. Built With Irons is different: structured training, simple nutrition and weekly accountability, built around rugby and built around your week.
This is how I get rugby players rugby ready, through three pillars used in every coaching programme and in the 6-Week Programme itself:
We don't guess. We measure.
Who am I
I've played rugby since I was 6, through Sedbergh School First XV, university captain, playing across England, Europe and Asia. I've been coaching for 8+ years alongside working as a full-time rugby performance coach, and today I coach over 100 rugby players every week, on and off the pitch.
I'm a rugby performance coach, Head Coach of Medicals RFC, Coach & Scout at UR7s as well as lead S&C, and Founder of Gamebreakers Rugby Camps.
I've seen the best and worst of the S&C support players get from schoolboy to university to adult club rugby, and most are left guessing. That's why Built With Irons exists:
"Elite support for club players, built by someone who needed it and never got it."

Results
"I used to just lift like a bodybuilder but always flagged at 50 minutes. Ed got me to increase my power and fitness so I can play a full 80."
"I've put on serious size and strength since starting with Ed. I'm finally filling out my tops instead of swimming in them."
"I'm way stronger than I've ever been, with PBs on my bench and squat, and Ed's attention to detail with programming and adjustments is next level."
"The weekly check-ins keep me honest. Busy work weeks used to kill my training, now the plan just fits around them."
"I loved the speed work and full-body sessions, and it was all adapted around my time and the areas I needed to work on."
