[@OscarGonzalez-et8kr]

It would be awsome to workout with this guys....😢😢😢❤👍

[@anastasiacroatiaanastasia3040]

I know how is hard

[@sbirrito]

why so much jumping for forwards?

[@tv2671]

Steve steve improves core strength and low body endurance that enables one to hold off a scrum so it doesn't collapse and cause injury to front rows

[@superboy90345]

Be an Overcomer lol, you what? How do plyometrics improve core strength? It’s for lower body power and elasticity. It’s not for endurance either but I suppose if you become more elastic, you’ll improve movement economy

@@superboy90345 i prefer the other guys answer

[@superboy90345]

Steve steve lol, ok

[@braedensykes2687]

Has nothing to do with low body endurance. Plyometrics/jumping build explosive power which is obviously important for a forward during pretty much all aspects of the game

The gayest looking training ever.
