I believe in training as a team. It’s where brotherhood is built. There is a dark place you have to go to in training that can only be achieved with your brothers you pushing you past your limits. Gold’s Gym with your headphones on just ain’t the same.

Here’s what I mean by choose variations that “autocorrect” This is my 5 year old. He’s never lifted. With a dowel on his back he rounds the back during a squat, even with no weight. I could give him verbal cues & eventually get him right, but it would be a challenge. 1st rep with a db goblet style & a medball underneath he squats with perfect technique. I didn’t coach him at all. The exercise variation forces good technique through tactile cues instead of verbal cues. When working with young athletes finding ways to “autocorrect “ good technique is a cheat code.

Never done mace work before but I saw an instagram account show how to use a barbell for it, so I’ve been trying it out. my thoughts so far: -works the whole shoulder girdle & traps(huge pump) -forearms are smoked -core is challenged -shoulders feel great after

If you train a contact sport you HAVE to train the neck. It’s the best way to reduce concussion risk. Grab a towel, give manual resistance in each plane, eccentric, isometric, & concentric.

Training the neck should be a top priority for every football coach, player, & team. Adding 1 pound of neck strength reduces concussion risk by 5%. Train 10 reps concentric & eccentric in all 4 directions. End each set with a full resistance isometric hold for 5-10 seconds.

Night of Champions was a huge success: over 50 personal records broken, 15 ran over 20mph, & Jackson Barnhisel broke the school bench record!

Energy system prep for FB season: interval sled competition Each team has to push 200|400 yards(depending on load). 5 second pushes match FB play length. Groups of 7 give a 30s rest to 5s work ratio. Set winners get points which = full effort pushes. Smart, tough, effective.

It’s Feb 6. Week 5 of offseason. Spring ball is weeks away, season even further out. The temptation for all of us is to start going through the motions. I believe the teams that can train w/ consistent, relentless enthusiasm when it’s boring will have an edge in season.

Today was a big power contrast day for us. Try to compliment horizontal & vertical vectors across the force velocity curve. Monday was heavy strength, tomorrow will be nothing but pump/hypertrophy. Fill all the buckets!
