How Many Sprint Days in a Week? Football Speed Training

[@tcsaheadcoach212]

Amazing with just 4 coaches still proving my point on how valuable this type of performance training is for athletes and for coaches to find a that family life. MEASURE WHAT MATTERS: RECORD, RANK AND PUBLISH!! Without data you don’t know where you been and you don’t know where you are going!! Probably another Job!! Slap it! Sling it! Send it!!

Tony, so glad I found your channel. My son is a competitive high school/club soccer player looking to play at a high college level. Being quicker/faster in soccer is huge. We did RPR for an 80 minute competitive game last night, and he looked fresher than I ever had seen him play. People were asking what we were feeding him. I should have said “Feeding him the Cats!” Your channel is full of great ideas! Looking forward to incorporating all of your speed training with him. Rest and recover!!!

Should I do muscle building training on performance days or fundemental days?

[@coachtonyholler]

Either if you don’t burn the steak. I prefer after a performance day.

This is the exact opposite of what the coaches at the high school I coach at do. Every single practice except for Thursday is a 2+ hour practice, and most of the drills/periods aren't run at high speeds. Every single day is essentially a technique day with some higher speed sessions randomly thrown in. If we're working on offense, and they do something wrong, they have the kids run the plays over and over again until it's correct instead of giving them a consequence of that period being over. I'm trying to get them to switch to speed based football, but I'm not sure how stubborn the coaches are. Most of the coaches we have are stuck in the past with how things are done.

Tradition is like a religion.

Do you ever have guys try to cheat those tests? I mean, cheat by purposefully be lazy to get out of this stuff? Just curious

[@coachtonyholler]

Never. That’s culture. When kids love practice and believe in training, they don’t cheat.
