Individual Winter Workout '09

Important Information:

The lifts are listed in a specific order.  Follow that order as closely as possible.  Make sure to stay within the sets and reps listed.  Also, the plyometric and sprint workouts are to occur on specific days.  The plyometric workouts should occur on your Clean days (Monday’s and Wednesday’s) and the Sprint workouts should occur on Tuesday and Friday’s. 

Thursday is an off day.  IT IS AS IMPORTANT TO RECOVER AS IT IS TO TRAIN!!!  Do not lift or run on those days.  Doing so will slow your progress!

Hydrate your body!  By doing so you will avoid the chance of injury while at the same time providing your body with the necessary requirements to train effectively and see optimal gains.

The iron never lies.  There is no luck in the weight room or on the track.  Be smart about what you are doing.  Have a spotter!  Do not try to get lucky using poor form and dangerous movements.  Doing so puts you at risk of injury or DEATH!!!

Remember, you truly can’t control a lot about football.  You can not control the calls that are made by coaches or officials.  You can not control playing time.  You can not control a depth chart.  What are you in control of?  How big, fast, and strong you arrive to summer camp.  The only thing you can truly control is how good your physical condition is when you arrive at Mendocino College. 

Good luck and call me if you have any questions.
