Freshman football did a great job for their first day in the weight room. They killed the first movement of our squat progression. Heel Elevated Zombie Squats via @CoachAlanBishop

- Sprint at full effort, rest, repeat. We start real speed work first thing after we warm-up. Today we fully rested 2-3min in between reps and our max distance was 30yds and we only did 5. No busy work was done while we rested and no anarchy happened.
00:00 - Adding some elements and constraints to our agility work. Kids really enjoyed this one. Mirror drill...inception style(mirror within a mirror).
00:00 - This summer the majority of our agility has been open and constraints based. It is a lot closer to what we do in the actual game of football. I have categorized our drills based off of what @Nick__DiMarco is doing and this is a chase and evade drill stolen from @MonteSparkman
00:00 - Pretty surreal moment. Glad to be a small part of a great team and program this year. Ready for 2022..#FirstRing #FuelTheFire
- Building a foundation of movement! MS group working goblet squats and push ups. @birdvillesports @BIRDVILLE_FB
00:00 - Using “1x20” concepts this yr with all my groups. The idea that low intensity cannot build strength is false,especially with novice athletes. Had a soph today hit 215x14 in back squat @ 133lbs and a jr hit 255x14 @ 170lbs.1 set per exercise that’s it. Give them what they need!
- We need to dose speed work in every week. Issurins residual training effects shows that speed adaptations are one of the first to drop off when not trained. This is really common sense. I think of how slow I feel when I haven’t full out sprinted and timed myself in month.
- This is the biggest asset we have right now. If you truly want to have a great strength/performance program developing your middle school athletes should be one of the highest priorities.Over 100 middle school athletes in the weight room today. We prioritize development here at @HomeofSpartans #strengthculture @BixbySpartanFB @BixbySpartanSB @bixbytrack
00:00 - Early training cycle for our middle schoolers will be using some concepts laid out by @ZachDechant in his book “Movement over Maxes” focusing on creating great movement patterns I can’t wait to see the results.Another day another brick laid building the foundation for @HomeofSpartans #strengthculture @BixbySpartanFB
