Training as an athlete who plays multiple sports and competes in multiple seasons can be tricky. However, Peak Strength has two recommendations for athletes who want to strength train throughout the year.
Prioritize Your Primary Sport
If you have a primary sport that you train for, we always recommend following the training plan associated with that sport and long-term goal.
For example, a football player (linebacker) who also wrestles in the winter should stay on the training plan that targets his primary sport. If his goal is to play football in college, he should stay attached to the linebacker training plan.
This selection will help him build strength year-round for both sports, but will adjust the volume around his primary competitive season for football.
Universal Athlete Training Plan
The second option for multi-sport athletes is following the Universal Athlete Training plan. This training plan provides a balanced weekly schedule that incorporates strength, explosiveness, speed, and endurance.
You can find this option by selecting "train for a sport" > "Universal Athlete Training".
Although this option is not dedicated to any single sport, it helps develop overall athleticism and general physical preparedness around multiple competitive seasons.
