if you're going to be playing then take out all the plyo movements, etc. you will get plenty while playing. follow the weight portion of it.

Ill focus on 8 then for deads, squats, bench and hang cleans....and then any isolation exercises ill go all out for reps? Sounds like it would work..

one more thing, if i kept running 40 yard dashes (sprints) would that eventually make my 40yrd time a little faster?

squats, dead and bench - 8 reps or under.
cleans - 5 reps tops, but 1-3 reps work better.

if you maintain your form, or improve it, while rpactising sprints regularly, but get stronger you will get faster. Especially a short sprint like a40 yard dash is highly dependant of relative strength

For Iggy -


just read my stuff in that thread and Kelly Baggett's articles

it's always down to horsepower and movement effeciency

so improve relative strength
jump for vert
do short sprints for speed
and explosiveness will also improve along the way

and also practise actual football playing skills and everything will sort itself out as long as your recover from all this

it's really that simple. Sure you can do complicated plyos and stuff, but your just doing extra stuff that you don't really need IMO

in any case the articles on Kelly Baggett's site will have all the info
