"All the SMAI equipment makes up the core of our gym routine... A good gym routine is important for robustness, strength and power so without SMAI onboard we wouldnt be able to do what we do in here"
Nathan Pickworth
Head Of Athletic Performance, St George Illawarra Dragons

DUMBBELLS AND FREEWEIGHTS

"Freeweights are great for challenging joint stability, gives them more degrees of freedom in their movement, especially through the elbows and shoulders "

BUMPER PLATES

"Bumper plates are used to load up the barbells, doing squats, deadlifts, bench press, bench pulls, these exercises are critically important for developing strength and power"

JERK BLOCK

"We do power lifiting in our routine and the jerk block allows us to setup the players in a safe position to start their olympic lifts and allow them to develop good technique"

PLYOMETRICS

"We use plyometrics for both the forward and back players which are certainly critically important for both groups. The plyometric box is really good for developing explosive power and its an easy piece of equipment to use in the gym"

RESISTANCE BANDS

"Resistance bands are a good peice of equipment to exercise through the range of motion of a joint, so we use them in different strategies to allow us to train those movements"

RECOVERY

"We do a lot of rolling and stretching and we use the SMAI equipment to do that. We take a good amount of time to stretch and prepare the muscles and areas we are about to train
