The purpose of this program is to provide football players who are looking for an effective and affordable program an option. These are training strategies I use for myself when prepping for the national team and that I use for all my athletes to help them get to the to collegiate level. There are videos and descriptions for all exercises to allow for deeper understanding and to ensure you are doing the exercises correctly.
The focus of this program will be reflected based on time of year and season as it is updated regularly to reflect on needs and new learnings. The sessions are designed to maximize your results in the most effective doses and respect your time.
This program includes strength training, speed training, change of direction work and sport specific conditioning tailored specifically to your needs as a football player. There is no fluff, all these exercises are designed with the intention of making you a better athlete by making you bigger, faster and stronger.
This program requires dedication from you to actually get results. This means you need to commit to the program and make time to get the sessions in. I promise not to waste your time but I need a commitment from you to get results.
So what would happen if you committed to this program for the next 6 months and saw the results you were looking for? Don't you at least deserve that?

Explosive Power Circuit
2 Rounds - 15s on/10s off Battle Ropes - in a squat position, we want to move the arms as fast as we can, as we fatigue we can go from alternating arms to both arms together. If you don't have battle ropes grab a pair of dumb bells and do sprint arms, driving the arms back and forth as fast as you can for the time Box Jumps - we want a relatively low box because the point of this is to get as many reps as you can in the time. As soon as you touch the ground we want to jump back onto the box and vice versa. If you don't have a box to use, just do tuck jumps instead where you focus on tucking knees to chest at the top. Russian Twists - grab a med ball and we want our feet up as we twist the med ball across keeping the legs from rotating and the upper body stable only the arms are moving. Lateral Hurdle Hops - we want a low hurdle set up to hop over quickly, focus on snapping the knees up. If no hurdle, imagine jumping 1 Plate Hold - extend arms straight out & hold, focus on breathing
