Train together.
Grow together.
We wrote down what RugbyFit stands for. Plus night rugby, Coach, clubs and trainers, the playlists, and the pillar that keeps you going: Purpose.
The other 162.
A week has 168 hours. A coach sees you for about six of them.
The other 162 are yours. Nobody is watching, and that's where it's decided. They run as a loop: Charge, fill the tank. Perform, spend it well. Recover, get it back, with interest. Every time you close the loop, the tank gets bigger.
The six hours is a coach's estimate from years on the pitch, not a statistic.
Every colour. Every faith. One team.
We build strong, capable men who show up for their families and their neighbourhood.
The modern world pulls men apart. Screens built to keep us scrolling. Food built to keep us eating. Feeds that tell us who to fear and who to hate. So we train together, one team, no labels, no sides.
Fight for something.
Nobody can tell you what that is. Define the idea for yourself.
An idea builds energy. You can spend it two ways: talk about it, or act on it. What's your choice?
What we put out.
Everything we posted this week, in one place. Missed it on Instagram, TikTok or YouTube? Here it is.

Two ways to get outside.
Men's Outdoor Classes, for men aged 18 and over. Your first session is free.
Sunday Sessions.
One coached hour on the grass, rugby-style conditioning, no contact. No class this Sunday 25 October, it's Amsterdam Dance Event weekend. We're back on 1 November.
Urban Nights.
Rugby hits the streets. After dark, under the lights, on a court in Amsterdam West. Same session, different floor. Starts next Wednesday. Your first session is free.
Bring RugbyFit to your club.
Rugby clubs can now apply to become a RugbyFit partner. We run RugbyFit sessions on your ground, led by your own certified RF Trainers, at the hours your pitch stands empty. We start with one pilot club. Every other club joins the waitlist, in the order they apply.
- 01New people through the gate, and some stay as members
- 02Extra income from the pitch and clubhouse you already have
- 03A place for injured and former players to keep training, without the full contact
- 04The app, teaching players and parents about food, sleep and mindset
Not on the committee? Forward this to someone who is.
Coach rugby? Run RugbyFit in your city.
We're taking applications from new trainers. You bring the coaching; we bring the brand, the app, the programme and the admin. Minimum World Rugby Level 2.
Meet Coach.
RugbyFit's AI coach. Fifty five, still trains every morning, lives the six pillars. Tells you the truth, short. Then sends you outside.
Your coach sees you for a few hours a week. The rest of the week nobody is checking. Coach is there for those hours: one honest answer and one small step, whenever you need it.
Ask a question, get a short, straight answer and one thing to do today. Lazy question? Drop and give me 10. For the real stuff, he sends you to real people.
On the web, no sign-up, ten questions a day. In the app he knows your rugby, your goal and your RF75 day, and picks up where you left off.
Same beat. Different floor.
The city dances all week. We train to the same beat. Music isn't background at RugbyFit: it's a lever you reach for, and each list has one job.
Charge. Fill the tank.
Wake up, warm up, get going.
Perform. Spend it well.
Heavy and steady, for the work itself.
Recover. Get it back.
Slow, low, coming down on purpose.
The pack votes. Members drop up to 3 songs and add up to 3, and the changes go in every Friday.

Sunday 25 October
Kick-off times are Amsterdam time. Clocks go back on Sunday morning.
Even the strongest hearts stop.
Sonny Bill Williams, dual code champion and former All Black, tells his story in his own words: "My heart stopped." On his own channel he shares what helped him on and off the field: training, discipline, belief, balance and purpose. Our kind of man. Watch it on his channel, give it a like and follow him. That is how you back a man who backs others.

Purpose. Pull energy.
Motivation runs out. Usually on a wet Tuesday in February.
Find your reason and you stop forcing yourself to show up. You show up because you want to. That's how the other hours of the week start to work for you.
Do this today: write down one person who benefits when you are at your best.
German researchers followed about 7,500 adults: eating closer to any of ten healthy patterns was linked to slower biological ageing, and how you eat overall mattered more than which plan. Reported in Nature Communications on 20 October. Read the summary.
