To Bodybuilderish for Me. Your a football player not a bodybuilder. You need Olympic lifts. I don't agree with running on the same day as you lift. Running before will kill your lift, and running after will tear your muscle up and it will be hard for them to recover.

Thats not good at all...

[Thedudex2000]

where are the power cleans, the hang cleans?

2 of the most important lifts for football.

Im sure its a decent program, but it isnt that great when it comes to football.

looks like a Men's Health Mag workout routine to me

you beat me to it.


in football we train for strength and explosiveness. we barely ever over train and if we do it's only during conditioning.

There are so many things wrong with that I wouldnt know where to start.
Where are the Clean pulls, power cleans, clean and jerks,and jerks?

[BlueAndromeda73]

Power lifts? You have a lot of cosmetics shoved into football uniform, take that out and throw in the mass.

Most of the workouts "coaches" draw up I've seen look like trash. I had a coach in high school that would make us squat 3 times a week. Regardless of how f'ed up you were..Running and squatting all the time isn't how you get stronger. I see very few programs that are built around gaining strength. They are usually drawn up by people who think these are actually good workouts. Core lifts are great for strength. As others have said...Some explosive lifts just cannot be replaced...

[PIMPOLOGY101]

What is a good running and lifting workout for the summer. I play D2 football, im trying to lift and run/agility/pass routes for 3 hours a day mixed. What would be good for this?

[dmcf99]

haha ****.... i play D-1 and mostly all we do is olympic lifts.... i'd be lucky if we did 3 sets of bi's hahaha at least you'll look good on the field

[HeLLBoy3045]

[SprinterOne]

I agree, and As I Lay Dying kicks ass. Just thought I would throw that out there, lol.

I agree and disagree with this. Well, really it depends on his main goals. I definitely agree with not running after. But if his goals are speed development then running before is fine. Yes, you are right that his lifts will suffer, but if he is going for speed development it is more important that he gets good speed work in. If he is more interested in strength/size then I would second to take out the speed work since it will indeed kill his lifts.

[SprinterOne]

No, I could not take this workout.

Way off topic here, but I just made 3 consecutive posts in one thread. Talk about being a whore! I need to write Whoring For Dummies.

[GridIronDevil]

personally i hink this workout sucks. really i dotn know what else to say, its shitty, i hope a college coach didnt right this out, and if he did, well he doesnt know much. you need more exercises like Clean and Jerks, Snatchs, hang cleans, squats are always great, throw in some heavy calf raises standing sitting donkey etc, biceps do on your own time, focus on the tricep more as its much more logical for a football player, also you need some plyometric work as well, how bouit a stretching routine? i stretch for 10 mintues 5 different times per day, i continue to get faster and more explosive becuase of it. but hey thatd just my 2cc's take it or leave it.
