Forging Elite Athletes: Our Kabaddi Fitness Regimen
We don’t just teach moves; we build the physical engine required to survive and win on the mat. Here is how we prepare our athletes.
Strength and power are non-negotiable. Here you can see my players doing tire flips, a core part of our weight and strength training program.
A look at our outdoor physical training setup. We use a variety of equipment like hurdles, cones, and ladders to improve speed and agility.
Our comprehensive workout includes hurdle drills for agility, cone drills for quick direction changes, and skipping for endurance and foot speed.
Even our 'chota packet', the youngest player, goes through the same tough drills. Here he is doing hurdle and sprint exercises to build a strong athletic base.
An evening practice session focused on agility and footwork drills using cones. Consistency is the key to improvement.

This clip shows our speed and resistance training drills. I use resistance bands to build explosive power for both boys and girls.

Indoor practice doesn't mean we slow down. This is a high-intensity running and warm-up drill to maintain fitness levels.
About Forging Elite Athletes: Our Fitness Regimen
This isn’t a generic gym routine. We use tractor tires, heavy-duty resistance bands, and obstacle hurdles to mimic the explosive, game-speed movements of a real raid. You will be pushed to your physical limits six days a week because that is exactly what it takes to hold your ground at the state level.
Kabaddi is a game of explosive bursts and sustained endurance. If your conditioning isn't right, your technique will fail you when you are tired in the second half of a match.
Our Training Philosophy
We focus on functional strength. You won't find us spending hours on isolation machines. Instead, we use:
- Tire Flips & Sledgehammers: For grip strength and back power, essential for the Ankle Hold and Thigh Hold.
- Hurdle & Ladder Drills: To improve foot speed, agility, and direction changes, which are the backbone of raiding skills like the Dubki.
- Resistance Band Training: To build explosive power for jumps and sudden accelerations.
The Daily Routine
Training runs six days a week with double shifts. Morning sessions (5:30 AM) focus on stamina and long-distance endurance, while evening sessions (4:00 PM) are dedicated to high-intensity, match-specific speed drills.
Training Facilities
We train on professional interlocking mats and traditional mud tracks. This dual-surface exposure is critical for preparing for both the modern Pro Kabaddi style and the traditional Circle Kabaddi format. We provide all the necessary equipment, including weight vests and hurdles, so you only need to bring your focus and dedication. If you are serious about competing in SFA, CBSE clusters, or KBD Juniors, this is where the groundwork is laid.
