Kickers are Athletes (Off season)

Why train like an athlete...

That's easy to answer, because we are!! In this day and age kickers are not seen as what they were in the past. The one guy that extremely lacks athleticism and is put at the kicking or punting position, "because where else do we put him/her" is over. There is a different breed of kickers now and this program that is backed by science will improve that breed.

** What to expect in this program...**

  1. Heavy loads

  2. Move weight fast

  3. Move your body fast

SIMPLE!

What makes us unique athletes...

Rotational power, leg speed, and stability/ balance is key for us kickers. We need a strong foundation starting from the lower body and moving up through the kinetic chain. Our body needs to flow and work together as a whole to create this power of sending it though the end zone and hitting from 55+ effortlessly. We will go through different blocks of training during the off season to maximize and peak in time for your next season.

Starting kicker for 4 years at The University of Tulsa. I tied the record for most field goals in a season and hold the record for all time scoring leader at the university. I then went on to continue playing at the pro level signing with the Chicago Bears (NFL) for the off season and then playing for the Houston Blues (Spring League).

FAQs
Who is this training for?
Kickers/ Punters wanting to improve the strength and power of their kickoffs, field goals and punts. Many exercises can be modified to different training levels.
When should I join?
Right after your season ends is the best time. We go through different training phases throughout the off season but if you happen to join later in the off season, then I will have you adjust accordingly.
What about in season training?
There is an in season program that goes from September to January that will keep you strong and powerful throughout the season.
How many days a week is it?
We keep the strength days to 3 per week and use one day for mobility/running. Then another for speed, power and agility. So a total of 5 prescribed days a week for training.
What program should a free agent do during the NFL/CFL season?
It is best to do the off season program during the NFL/CFL season. The program will continue specifically for free agents waiting on a call from a team. It will keep you fresh for the beginning of the week just in case you get a call.
