i have never maxed out, although i'm not a powerlifter. never did it for football, either. seemed like an utter waist of time.

i've found that most high school football coaches know less that nothing about exercise. i'd like to know what a routine for bigger, faster, stronger looks like?

those are good maxes, if they were done legit with good form. Most coaches test their athletes like fucking morons (I see it at the gym when I work out). I am a super strict tester.
The only piece of advice I can give you is run away from your coach and don't let him give you the BFS program. It is a sure fire way to end your career due to poor implementation of the program.

wish i could get away from the BFS but its either that or dont lift. keep good form on squat and dead lift and cleans only thing i have problems with is bench because of my shoulders have started to wear a brace on the right one for more support seems to be helping a little bit.

90 degrees of what? 90 degrees of knee flexion is not very deep. Are the tops of your quads parallel to the floor?
With those shoulder problems i would probably nix the olympic lifts and stick to plyos.

I would try and get a job and hit it hard this summer with a good strength coach who can really help you out.

I could take a football team and have them do 45 minutes of resistance training a week and have them improve their strength so fast it would be unbelievable. But football coaches will do the opposite, run them into the ground when they are already tired and stressed from school and doing tons of drills and practice.

Most coaches are retarded. Ridiculous volume, near every day frequency, and isolation exercises up the ass. I would lie to him and tell him your Dr wants you to do a different program.
As for your maxes, assuming proper technique, those are very good. Don't know if I would be maxing out, especially with the bench and cleans while having a bad shoulder. You can figure out your loads from your 4rm and lower your risk of injury. Regardless, I would lay off the pressing if it bothers your shoulder. I get people all of the time mention their shoulder/s are bad, and when I avoid pressing they downplay the injury like it is nothing. Stupid.
If sense were common, everyone would have it.

yea, I know a lot of coaches put stress on the 1RM in those exercises. I just don't get why though? You can learn everything you need to know from a 3RM imo and plan from there.

my old coach's workout was halfway good i guess. he had us doing ATG squats, military press, rows, leg press, and etc. but it wasnt that great. he had us doing bb curls, tricep extensions, and i hella lot of isolation . i actually didn't stick to the workout. i did my own routine
. he sent us to the weightroom to do the workout while god knows wtf he was doing. (so it was un supervised) while other people were doing bb curls and shit i was doing deads , wg pullups, dips and etc. and guess what, i was the strongest on the team weighing 160lbsEDIT** - BTW, decent maxes, but it looks like your bench is kinda lagging not trying to insult you or anything just sayin.... ![]() |
