    Very impressed with her time for not being a runner at all. Says a lot about skipping for conditioning.
  • @tomwillshaw2808
    We do a version of this called a 3 minute run, you go down on each line do a push up and sprint back, if you don’t do it in under 3 mins, you do it again until you do
  • @WorldRugby
    Is the Bronco the hardest fitness challenge in rugby? What other fitness test come to mind? Let us know in the comments.
  • @zyaicob
    I feel like she overestimated how tiring it would be- she looks like she could have done it quite a bit faster

    In high school we had a paved walkway up a steep incline over 60m. Coach put a man with a tackle bag at intervals at 20m/40m/60m (top of hill). Four groups of 3 (each group takes a turn holding the bags). Coach starts us each individually one after the other...Up 20m...hit the bag...run to bottom...up 40m...hit the bag...run to bottom..up 60m...hit the bag...run to bottom. Group whose next on bags must switch over and while switching that was the only time the rest of the runners got a rest. Once they got to their bags and the other group gets down to the bottom we rinse/repeat. Coach penalized us with additional running if we didn't hit the bags with proper force. This was gruelling.

    Did these - preseason school rugga, but we had to tap the mark with our hands and also do burpees on the opposite end. Add that to the sesh and its def a 10/10. And…If the coach was having a bad day he’d make us do it until the slowest and biggest of the forwards finished their set- (chewing on the lunch again at that point)
  • USA Rugby 7s does the RSD. Repeated Sprints Double, it’s tough and worth doing a YouTube video on.
  • I remember this one time where I had a training session for school and then a club session later one, my coach for school made me run a bronco and it was alright for me but then when club training came my coach from school came over (He was playing in the senior club for my club) and helped us train before making me do another bronco which made me not get out of bed for the rest of the day
  • @anglersedge11
    We just started doing this with our home club and it’s great conditioning

    Had an ex Wales International as a coach during secondary school, had us doing these but from one try line you ran to the 5 and back, then 10 and back, then 20 and back and so on and so on, all the way to the other tryline. They were known as 'suicide runs' and by god they made you feel ill, but they sure did got you fit.
  • still player in highschool .My coach make the bronco but starting on 10m until the other try line. It was 7 time hitting checkpoint and count as a rep
  • We had to do a version of this but starting from tryline to try line and then each respective marking back. So tryline, 22, 10, 50, 10, 22.
  • @Brandon-qe3ej
    I remember at High school we used to do bleep tests... hitting level 15-16 on that monster is rough
  • @tshepomeso3507
    We did it differently here in South Africa. We literally ran something called "Suicides" We ran from one end to the 22 then back. Then ran to the 50, then back. Then ran to the opposite 22 then back. Then a full blown sprint to the opposite tryline, then back. That was 1 rep. Then every Monday for fitness we all had to do 20 reps before we could even touch a ball 😭
  • We used to do this 20m and back, then 50m and back, 80m and back (I think), then 100m and back ... 5 times 😲
  • @ensoparra
    Great time. The girl wasn't even wearing boots.
  • @iseriver3982
    The bleep test is harder. Bleep tests don't stop.
  • Ya, idk it as the bronco, did it short way first, but if you do it the way where you're supposed to speed up for the shorter ones that will kill you more
