🔥 BUILDING STRONG FOUNDATIONS | SAM VERRAN

Great first session with Sam Verran from Tauranga Boys’ College 1st XV Rugby Team!

Our focus was on developing the movement foundations that transfer into performance on the rugby field.

⚡ Acceleration – Load, Project, Push, Sweep and Attack. Building strong positions and applying force efficiently through those first few steps.

⚡ Deceleration & Reloading – Learning to control momentum, reposition the hips and transition explosively into the next movement.

⚡ Footwork & Pattern Work – Dialling in the jab step, changes of pace, changes of level and controlled pauses to create space and move with purpose.

⚡ Curvilinear Sprinting & Agility – Bringing it all together through movements that challenge coordination, control and explosiveness.

For me, it's not just about moving faster. It's about helping athletes understand HOW and WHY they move, developing the skills, confidence and movement efficiency to perform under pressure.

Solid first session with Sam. Plenty of potential and plenty more to build on! 💪

MOVE WITH PURPOSE. TRAIN WITH INTENT.

ARE WE MISSING THE BIGGER OPPORTUNITY IN YOUTH SPORT? 🤔

Sport has the power to shape so much more than athletic performance.

It builds character, confidence, resilience, communication, leadership and connection. But these things don’t always develop automatically.

As parents, coaches and athletes, we’re all navigating the journey, and sometimes we have blind spots we don’t even recognise.

That’s why the conversations, experiences and people surrounding our young athletes matter just as much as the training and competition itself.

At Performnz IQ, we believe in creating opportunities for athletes, parents and coaches to learn, reflect and grow together. Sharing knowledge, lived experiences and practical tools that support development both IN SPORT AND IN LIFE.

Because sport is the vehicle, but developing the person behind the athlete is the real purpose. 💯

🚀 We’ve got something exciting dropping at the end of this week to help young athletes LEVEL UP this summer!

Stay tuned! 👀

PATTERN WORK | Cohen Satiu 🔥

Low Body Positions • Quick Shifts • Explosive Acceleration

Working with Cohen on developing strong, low body positions that allow him to stay explosive and shift quickly through movement patterns.

⚡ Low Body Position: Staying low through the hips and knees to maintain balance, control and readiness to explode.

⚡ Quick Lateral Shifts: Driving aggressively off the outside foot to generate force and shift swiftly across the hurdles.

⚡ Level Change & Fast Feet: At the third hurdle, Cohen transitions into a level change, using short, sharp footwork before doubling up to prepare for his exit.

⚡ Jab Step & Acceleration: Finishing with an explosive jab step to create separation before accelerating through the gate.

The focus? Teaching the body to absorb force, reposition quickly and produce explosive movement in any direction.

It’s not just about moving your feet fast. It’s about creating strong positions that allow you to apply force efficiently and accelerate with intent.

STRONG POSITIONS. QUICK SHIFTS. EXPLOSIVE EXITS 💪🏾

GOOSE STEP | Developing Footwork & Explosive Acceleration 🔥

Working with Lucas on breaking down the mechanics of the Goose Step, focusing on rhythm, timing, coordination and force production.

Our progression:

1. Feel the Movement – Start at a lower intensity, practising the kicking action to develop coordination and familiarity with the movement.

2. Add the Run-In – Build momentum before exaggerating the movement with an upward jump and inside knee lift.

3. Establish the Split Position – As the body drops into the landing, position the feet in a split stance, preparing to redirect force.

4. Kick & Drive – The outside leg kicks forward while the inside foot punches aggressively down and back into the ground.

5. Explode Out – Use that ground contact to produce force, drive forward and accelerate out of the step.

The key is getting athletes to feel and understand the movement before increasing speed and intensity.

Once the mechanics become more coordinated and natural, we can start adding deception, reactions and game-specific scenarios.

Learn the movement. Own the movement. Then apply it.
