SIX Cricket Academy launches their first Cricket specific Fitness Program

India’s leading cricket academy, SIX Cricket has launched its first cricket-specific fitness program.

As the game evolves, fitness has become key for players to play at the highest level. Cricket is not only a game of skill but also demands athletes to be at peak fitness levels, hence the program is specifically designed to fill that gap. The program will be led by Head of Strength and Conditioning Coach (SIX Cricket) Kartik Achappa, accredited with Australian Strength and Conditioning Association (ASCA) Associate L2 having many years of experience under his belt.

Through this program, SIX aims to provide a curated, systematic weekly plan that works on the fundamentals of cricket fitness while targeting areas like strength, endurance, mobility, stability, strength, and speed training. Additionally, the program will also focus on providing athletes with adequate recovery sessions and nutrition training to enhance the athletes’ cricket performance.

The program will be housed at the Padukone Dravid Centre for Sports Excellence, where state-of-the-art facilities and coaches bring out the best of athletic abilities.
