Build Your Off-Season Edge: AFL & AFLW Running Programs to Boost Performance
Off-Season Is Where Champions Are Made
The season pushes your body. But the off-season? That’s when you build it.
For AFL and AFLW athletes, this time away from competition is crucial. It’s a chance to reset—physically and mentally—and set the foundation for the year ahead. Our running programs are designed to help you come back faster, stronger, and more resilient than before.
Why an Off-Season Running Plan Matters
Once the final siren sounds, it’s easy to either do too little... or way too much. Some players rest too long. Others jump straight back in, full throttle. Both can backfire—leading to injury, fatigue, or burnout.
That’s where a smart, structured plan makes all the difference. A proper running program can help you:
Maintain your aerobic base
Rebuild your sprint mechanics
Improve repeat sprint performance
Strengthen key muscle groups—hamstrings, calves, hips
Lower your risk of injury before pre-season starts
What Sets Our Program Apart
Our running programs aren’t off-the-shelf. They’re led by strength and conditioning coaches who understand what footy demands—not just in theory, but in practice. They have all worked in elite sport.
Each program includes:
A one-on-one assessment and tailored goal setting
Targeted speed, agility, and conditioning sessions
Complimentary strength training options
Progress check-ins every 5 weeks
Full access to our rehab gym and recovery tools
Seamless integration with your existing strength or gym plan
Whether you’re bouncing back from an injury or eyeing a new PB in your 2km time trial, we’ll meet you where you are—and help you move forward.
Available in Bundoora & Ringwood
Our sessions run out of both clinics and are led by experienced physios who specialise in athlete development and football-specific conditioning.
📍 Bundoora – convenient for players in Melbourne’s north
📍 Ringwood – perfect for those based in the eastern suburbs
