⭐️We’re always learning ⭐️

We were delighted to welcome to deliver a CPD session for the RAPID x Rocky Fitness team.

Sami is an exceptional Strength & Conditioning practitioner with over 20 years’ experience across a wide range of elite sporting environments. He has a rare ability to take complex concepts and translate them into simple, effective coaching frameworks.

Our team gained huge value from his session on acceleration and linear running mechanics — an area where Sami’s knowledge is world-class.

Sami currently works as the Lead S&C Coach with the Dublin Senior Ladies Football team, and continues to build on his extensive clinical and performance background from his time at the UPMC Sports Surgery Clinic. He has also recently begun seeing athletes privately at the top class facilities at .

A massive thank you to Sami for sharing his expertise with us. We wish him all the best in his new role — and if you’re an athlete looking to elevate your performance or rehabilitation, be sure to check him out.

The RAPID Row – Build Strength, Not Compromise

Most people row with their arms and forget about their foundation.
 At RAPID, we coach the row for what it really is:
 → Control through the shoulder blade → Load through the lower body → Power from a stable base
 No shoulder pinching. No ego lifting. Just clean movement that builds real strength.

What Is the AC Joint?

If you play contact sports, you’ve probably heard of (or injured) this:
 The acromioclavicular (AC) joint is a small joint at the top of your shoulder

— and it’s vulnerable in sports like rugby and GAA.
 💥 Tackles, landings, and collisions can put it at risk.
 The good news?
 Most AC joint injuries recover really well with structured rehab — no surgery needed.
 We’ve been there. We’ve rehabbed hundreds. And we’ll guide you through it too.

🎥 Glute Bridge: Are You Doing It Right?

Most people just thrust their hips to the ceiling — but that’s not what we’re after. 😬

At RAPID, we coach a smarter glute bridge:

✅ Rolling through the hips (posterior pelvic tilt)
✅ Driving through the heels or toes-up
✅ Avoiding low back overload

It’s not about how high you lift — it’s about how well you move.

Train better. Move smarter. Rehab properly.

The work you don’t see makes the wins you can’t ignore. 💯
