Build 10kg+ And Keep Your Speed
For guys who want to pack on serious size without getting slow, losing power, or getting dropped.
Personalised 1:1 coaching from Pat · 10,000+ athletes trained · Sprint work from day one
Most players train like shit.
Anyone can go to the gym and build some muscle over time. But most players get way slower results than they could. Then they bulk, get slow, and lose their power out on the field. Then they get injured — and miss out on the teams they want to make.
Bro splits — push, pull, legs
Too much fatigue per session, slow muscle growth, and it shifts your fibres toward slow-twitch. The last thing you need when you're trying to stay fast.
High-rep hypertrophy phases
Chasing 12+ reps because you think it builds muscle is stupid. You won't get anywhere near as strong as a lower rep range, you build more fatigue, and you develop slower muscle fibres.
Drop sets, pumps & failure
Players think they need to trash the muscle for it to grow. It's false — it slows progress, shifts you toward slow-twitch and kills your speed.
Changing exercises every 4 weeks
Every change restarts your coordination gains and slows your ability to build muscle. Staying on the right lifts long enough is how you actually get strong.
Dropping sprints while bulking
Speed is a skill. Stop practising it and it degrades — no matter how much muscle you pack on. Sprint work runs alongside your lifting from day one.
Training the wrong muscles
Too many players spend their time on lifts that don't help on the field. They miss the muscles that actually produce serious force — hip flexors, hip extensors, quads and abdominals.
Matty Gonz built 10kg of lean muscle — and got faster.
No dirty bulk. No getting slow. We built his size and speed at the same time using the right training and nutrition.
He went on to trial for Aussie 7s, won every strength and fitness test, earned his spot — then went to the Olympics.
How we help you build more muscle that converts to the field.
It's not about smashing yourself in the gym, working out every single day on a new body part. It's training smarter. We recruit as many muscle fibres as possible, as frequently as we can — using specific techniques and progression models so every single week you know you're improving.
Every session built around you — not a template.
Get seriously strong across every lift.
Training is specific to making you super strong across all lifts. We use lower rep ranges between 4–8, which cuts post-workout fatigue and maximises recruitment.
- Eccentric-specific training for stopping fast, changing direction and dominating contact
- Cluster sets used frequently to get maximum recruitment so muscle is built fast
- Isometrics on hip flexors, glutes, adductors and hamstrings for maximal strength & hypertrophy you'll actually use on the field
- High-frequency training — at least 2 stimulus per week on each muscle
Build size that makes you explosive — not slow.
We train sprints at least once a week while you're fresh. These aren't crazy big sessions — they're short, sharp and specific to make you as fast as you can be.
- Specific muscles convert to power on the field — we target them with isometrics and single-limb work (most programs miss this)
- Speed exercises at the start of every session build full-body power that transfers to the field
- Makes sure you're not just bigger — you're explosive
Be fit enough to use every kg you build.
No point getting strong and building the mass you need if you can't use it. We don't waste time on useless conditioning that's just hard for the sake of hurting you.
- Optional off-feet conditioning after sessions — keep your fitness without the fatigue
- Short, sharp conditioning field sessions after your sprint work
- Position-specific conditioning — coming into the season I ramp it to suit your position
A full nutrition plan built for you — not a calculator.
Training is only half of it. You can't build 10kg and stay fast on guesswork. So we build you a complete, personalised nutrition plan around your body, your goals and your training — then track it in your own sheet.
And it doesn't sit still. Pat adjusts your macros as your goals and progress change — leaning you out, adding size, or holding weight — so you're always eating exactly for where you're at right now.
- Fully built plan — portions, meals and macros mapped out
- Tracked in your own sheet so nothing gets lost
- Pat changes your macros as your goals & progress shift
- Build muscle without getting fat, slow, or losing power

Built by someone who had to figure it out the hard way.
I was always the smallest player in the room. Two older brothers, backyard rugby every afternoon, never first picked — but never short on motivation to work out how to compete with players bigger and more gifted than me.
I became a PT almost by accident after school. Rugby players came to me not because I marketed myself, but because they saw what I looked like on the field and wanted to know what I was doing in the gym. That was 16 years ago.
Since then I've coached over 10,000 athletes. I'm most proud of taking players who couldn't make the top teams and helping them turn into top players.
Don't hear it from us — hear it from our players.
