Program Defined

Year long program broken into the following phases:

1. Camp

2. In-Season

3. Off-Season

4. Summer

Our program will utilize the following areas:

Dynamic Warm up

FSQ- Foot Speed & Quickness

SAS = Straight Ahead Speed

SET = Stabilization Equivalent Training

LSA = Lateral Speed & Agility

FSQ = Foot Speed & Quickness

SS = Super Sets

RNT = Reactive Neuromuscular Training (plyos)

Core = Abdominal and lower back

Every player on the team will test in the required lifts.We will base max results on a standard rep chart.

We will chart individual results in the Bench, Squat, 40, Pro-Shuttle, Vertical Jump, Broad Jump and 300 Yard Shuttle. We will use the results like track coaches with players always trying to improve personal bests in the three core lifts.

All players will be given a Lifting Profile sheet prior to testing and in their last exit meeting that will show them exactly the progress they have made in everything we test.

Players will be grouped by position and skill level.
Speed Group: WR, Corners, Tailbacks, Punters & Kickers
Braun Group: FB, Safeties, TE, QB
Size Group: Offensive Line, Defensive Line
