Reply With QuoteWell at 16 you should be doing compound lifts: Bench, Deadlift, Squats, Overhead presses, and things of that nature. The most common I have heard of in football programs to build strength is alot of 5x5.

Athlete in training
Im a 16 year old football player. I just recovered from being sick , which has made me loose about 15 pounds (dropped from 155 lbs to 140 lbs). Football training starts late August and i was looking to be a solid 165lbs - 170lbs by then . I was thinking about taking creatine to build up my mass. Any ideas or thoughts on a routine/program i should have?

read the stickies at the top of this page for training (as you're going for sports i'll suggest CowPimp's and P-funks stickies) and check out the diet and nutrition forums for weight gaining advice, as gaining mass is mostly about diet.
