The boys do base work of mainly endurance/aerobic conditioning with a little strength in the Winter. Moving to the spring we start with higher intensity towards shorter duration but more speed and more resistance strength training. Finishing up with a peak that last 4-6 weeks. During competition season late spring/summer/fall we move into maintenance phase of endurance and strength. And late fall and early winter is recovery.

Basically, it's the same program that a human athlete would follow.
