IMG Academy

In Florida, Friday night starts long before kickoff. 3 Days Out takes us inside IMG Academy’s National Football program as its student-athletes prepare for one of the biggest games of their season. With unprecedented access, we documented the work behind the performance—from punishing practices and conditioning to the hydration and recovery routines that help athletes safely push their limits. Together with Gatorade, we told the story of everything it takes to be ready when game day arrives.
