Takeaways

Collective team trainings and skills work should be the top priority in your training week. Game scenario training is crucial for improving performance in Gaelic football. Training on your own requires more than just runs; incorporate speed work, interval runs, and change of direction drills. Prioritize your weakest areas in training, whether it's conditioning, gym work, or speed. Adjust your training schedule based on game days and the intensity of training sessions. Include primer sessions and zone 2 work for improved performance and recovery.
