AFL Quality Strength & Conditioning.
Train with the same evidence-based strength and conditioning methods used at the elite AFL level.
Our individualised AFL Strength & Conditioning Programs are designed and personally overseen by Alistair Fahie, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach at the Western Bulldogs, and are tailored specifically for local footballers looking to improve performance, reduce injury risk, and maximise their development throughout the year.
Each athlete receives a periodised program delivered through the Teambuildr training app, complete with instructional exercise videos, ongoing program updates, and direct coach consultation to ensure training remains effective and appropriate as the season progresses.
Programs are tailored to the demands of each phase of the football calendar:
● Off-Season: Build the physical qualities that underpin performance with a focus on increasing strength, muscle mass, power, and resilience before pre-season begins.
● Pre-Season: Progress from general strength into football-specific performance, developing strength, power, speed, and robustness to prepare for the demands of competition.
● In-Season: Maintain strength and power while carefully managing fatigue and recovery, ensuring athletes continue to perform at their best without compromising match-day readiness.
