About

Derick Harwood's playing career with the Lions was cut short by injury on the eve of a Super Rugby breakthrough -- but that setback became the foundation of a second career in strength and conditioning. Founder of H5 Fitness, he now oversees conditioning for Hoerskool Dinamika's rugby teams and was personally recruited into Alberton Rugby Club's coaching setup.
