Welcome to the Gridiron Gang! This year-round training program is built for anyone whose trying to become a difference maker on the football field. Whether your in middle school, high school, college, or professional, this program is built to help you develop as an athlete to become elite on the field. Our program is built from an experienced strength and conditioning coach who has coached over 45 NFL draft picks at 5 different division-1 colleges. He also has many years of experience in a high school football weight room helping develop high school football players who aspire to play college football. This program is built to follow a year-round calendar of a football season. We will have different off-season phases where we will focus on more weight room development, as well as field improvement, like speed, agility, and conditioning. We will also have in-season programming to help keep us strong and resilient to injury risk. Our best ability is our availability. We must train to be the best athlete we can be, but also be strong against the risk of injury. This program will also help reduce injury risk to allow us to put more film out and gain more interest from college coaches! If you're looking to play at the next level, then having a plan from a coach who has coached at the highest level of college football is what you need! Come join the team and lets EMBRACE THE GRIND!!!
