Thanks, regarding the training, Coach Wannstedt resigned yesterday so I’m not certain how long I will continue to be employed here.
We are in fantastic physical condition, however.
yesterday we performed low volume power speed, explosive med ball, and weight trained earlier in the day and then performed alactic capacity sprints in the afternoon.
I had my non-special teams guys perform 450yds of total volume and my special teams guys performed 650 yds of total volume.
In no particular order we completed:
10yd x 10
15yd x 10
20yd x 10
- special teams 50yd x 4
I randomly selected sprint distances from the above grouping from one rep to the next and each set consisted of 5-9 repeats. 40sec rest between reps and 4 minutes between sets.
They absolutely killed it. Laughing and joking in between reps and sets.
Buddy did the same with his big guys and down linemen and they killed it as well.
In addition, last week we assessed our guys general organism strength via the bench and squat and it is clear that we are operating at near PR levels.
If Buddy and I are no longer here for 2011 the coaches who replace us are going to inherit a highly trained group of players.
