@Toohey_sp I’m sick of the back & forth arguing with topics like these! Always arguing extremes but reality is somewhere in the middle. Although it does make S&C Twitter more exciting lol

9 Observations & Thoughts 🤔 1️⃣ In-Season Training, even during Super Bowl week, is extremely important. I’d also be willing to bet their off-season training looks similar to this… 2️⃣ Simple > Complex 3️⃣ Squats do NOT need to go ATG… this helps save guys knees MORE than what your local fitness influencer says. 4️⃣ You can have multiple variations of exercises and still be productive. Ex: Instead of BB Squat, use a Landmine. Guys have back pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, etc… better have modifications ready to roll. 5️⃣ Barbell Back Squats are not the boogeyman. 6️⃣ You can use “OLY variations/modifications” and NOT catch the bar. 7️⃣ No, you aren’t stronger than Saquon. 8️⃣ Coaches do not need to scream in athletes’ faces while they lift weights. Get your coffee/chew breath out their face. 9️⃣ If you are a high school or college athlete and your training in the weight room looks similar to this, I’d feel confident saying you are on the right track!

@StevenCheah And in the NFL they lay you off as quickly as you take a job. Almost like capitalizing on success to make more money and create a better situation for yourself is a good move. Appreciate the transparency 🤝

Creatine is one of the most studied and safest supplements in the world I recommend it to all my athletes/clients But many people are unsure or uneducated on its benefits and use, especially athletes and active individuals Here's everything you need to know about creatine:

2x3ea take-offs in this instance was dictated by the length of our floor 😂 we did 3 down, 3 back.. and took a little break before doing the same thing for the 2nd set. We then did 4 resisted sprints @ 15 yards w/1 min rest between.. walked to the band to do broad jumps… walked back to the run rocket, grabbed a sip.. and then repeated this exact thing for set 2. Took about 30 minutes total including a 8-10 minute prep. In a group setting with 12 athletes, we could put 3 at each of our run rockets and complete this exact workout in the same amount of time. I probably could’ve worded the rx a little better on my post.

Ideally we shoot for ≈ 1min rest for every 10yds sprinted. Little longer rest between sets. The size of the group and how much time we have to train often dictates the rest time. We tell our athletes to take their time, grab a sip, be fresh for each rep. As long as they are rested enough to do these reps at max effort.
