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

Legs

How to do it

1Sit with the thigh pad locked down and the ankle pad on the lower calf.
2Curl the heels down and back, squeeze, and return under control.
3The seated position puts the hamstrings on a longer stretch than the lying version, which is why many people feel it more.

Cues that matter

›Drive the heels down and under
›Squeeze the hamstrings
›Slow return
