PROGRAMME OUTLINE
The road ahead
Although January 2021 has started with a lockdown, we believe that this is a great opportunity to consolidate all the training you did before Christmas and make gains on your competition when many wont have the tools to train effectively. We hope to provide you with the tools to maintain and improve you netball skills, physicality and therefore future performances. Each week you will get different netball specific workouts that will aim to target every element of training required of a top netballer.
WEEKLY TRAINING
Monday: Endurance
Tuesday: Strength
Wednesday: Skills
Thursday: Landing Mechanics & Skills
Friday: Rest & Stretch
Saturday: Speed and Agility
Sunday: Rest & Stretch
You will have 8 weeks in total. Each week will be different and get progressively harder.
We have based this programme on our own training experiences as top players and as qualified personal trainers. We take the safety and health of our athletes very seriously, furthermore, we have carefully planned the load and difficulty of the sessions to ensure that injury prevention is a key feature of our training. Due to the age of the athletes and the remote nature of the programme, we cannot coach weight-lifting therefore any resistance will only be in the form of body weight and band exercises.

3. Dual Household Programmes
If you are living in the same house and would like to share the programme, you will have to share the device on which the app is downloaded. When interacting with us make sure you put "name:..." so we know who we are communicating with.
4. Time Limitations
You will have access to the programme until the 7th March 2021. This give you 2 months to enjoy our nova x netu programme. After this you will be removed from the app and will no longer have access to the sessions.
If you wish to remain on the programme, please contact us and we can arrange an extension (if ill or injured).
FINAL THOUGHTS
We can give you the tools to succeed, but you have to put in the work to get there.
Most importantly we are here to support you along your training journey. Please use us as much or as little as you want. We want you to improve so communicating with us will allow us to collaborate with you and get the best results.
Be kind to yourself. It is ok if you miss a session, you can either rest and go back to the session at another time or crack on with the rest of the programme the next day. Listen to your body.
That being said, we need to push ourselves out of our comfort zones to improve, so it's a fine balance and we will do our best to help you find it.
Overall we have poured over these programmes to make sure they are the best netball specific product we could develop. We hope you love it as much as we do and we can't wait to see the results. GOOD LUCK!!!
