Anyone here ever gone to any sort of combine type tryout? The basic 225 bench, 40 yard dash, shuttle run, etc.
Im considering goin out for one of the semipro arena league teams in my area. Ive always been a really good athlete but I havent ever had the strength or size to go anywhere in football but I have been thinking lately it would be fun to at least tryout since I finally have the size (6'-6'1 220 lbs....need to drop 10 lbs of fat to 'ideal sports' weight) to match my speed.
Anyway Im curious if anyone had any particular training routines they used to prepare and how it worked out. I can do a couple of sets of 225 currently around 8 reps/set for the first two sets, goes down after that. Im guessing if I pushed myself and had the adreneline of a tryout I could do 11-12 but I need to up that #.
