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

Grip, Forearms

How to do it

1Hold the roller out in front at shoulder height with a weight hanging from the cord.
2Roll the cord all the way up by turning the handle hand over hand, then roll it all the way back down slowly rather than letting it unwind.
3The lowering is the half that does the work.
4Arms stay out in front — dropping them to rest turns it into a very short set of shoulder raises instead.

Cues that matter

›Arms out in front at shoulder height
›Roll it all the way up, then all the way down
›Lower it slowly — that half is the work
