What does PocketAthlete actually do?

You log each morning: sleep, soreness and fatigue. It scores your readiness, adjusts that day's session, and builds four-week training blocks around your sport, your position and the equipment you have.

Is it only for footballers?

No. It covers football, rugby, basketball, running, weightlifting and general gym training, with position-specific work for the team sports.

No. Tell it what you have and it programs around it. Many of the technical drills need nothing but a ball and a wall.

Can it work around an injury?

It works around soreness you log and avoids body parts you tell it to leave alone. It is general training information, not medical advice — see a physiotherapist for a diagnosis.

What it works

Back

How to do it

1Set a bar at roughly hip height, hang underneath with a straight body and heels on the floor.
2Pull your chest to the bar, keeping the body rigid from head to heels, then lower under control.
3Raise the bar to make it easier, lower it to make it harder.
4Letting the hips sag is the most common fault.
