Thank you for putting this video tutorial together bro. I am an Athlete myself , but I don't play NFL. But I do play another sport which is known as Rugby League. Just thought id say I've always been huge fan of these type of workouts & trainings etc. This tutorial footage was so helpful & very simplistic. As Rugby Athletes , all we ever do is mainly focus on cardiovascular endurance & muscular endurance as Rugby elite PLAYERS , but we rarely do explosive workouts or plyo's like these etc. Hopefully this drill I will do & practice will make me stand out a little more better then other people on that field. & also the little things like this will count & pay off. Thank you again brutha. Its the small things like these drilla that will count & That will spark that change on performance 🙌🏾💯

[@GarageStrength]

Most definitely. They are very similar sports. Each of these exercises will for sure translate over to rugby! Let us know how they work for you and if you feel better on the field 💪

5.25 at 200. No disrespect but if you want to be a college player you need to step up your training

[@hippo6billion811]

Workout your legs

[@alskank2155]

I agree with mostly everything except your point about full ROM. I understand it trains the stretch reflex and force production through ground which can help with overall speed but the risk for a tall, heavy linemen to get under a bar and do a full ROM squat or Olympic lift is too high. Often times technique is a huge concern and they’re football players not Olympic lifters. Other exercises can be just as beneficial.

[@ayalave75]

[@GarageStrength]

Hey man keep doing the best you can. My advice is keep learning. Watch videos of the greats. Look up drills to improve your feet and coordination to make plays and talk to your coaches about what you can do to improve and do more outside of practice to work on your game and know that you're on the right path. Hope that helps 👍

[@kingBaluga]

This is kinda related to running but what are somethings I can do to improve speed and running stamina

[@GarageStrength]

Are you talking top end speed like sprinting or are you talking distance running like 1500 meters +?

[@kingBaluga]

Garage Strength I wanna be able to run longer without getting tired as quick

[@vinnylepre98]

Naseim Perez run more, slowly increase volume to running the distances you want to tun

[@GarageStrength]

@@kingBaluga We agree with Vinny. There is no replacement for running when it comes to running specific cardio. For short sprint cycles which lineman will often do. We recommend lots of sprints between 10 to 20 yards. Also doing on the minute Olympic lifts. So doing like 2 reps of cleans with 1 minute timed rest for 6 to 8 sets. This will improve cardio and explosive power 👍

[@GarageStrength]

[@GarageStrength]

Try working on your mobility in your squats. Double Bounce squats would help with improving mobility and exploding out of the bottom position similar to the start off the line. Here is a link to that exercise 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqq3pZRmeb2dfNk and if you're interested in more lineman specific training consider checking out our Lineman Training Program 👉 www.garagestrength.com/products/lineman-in-season-program | Hope this helps 💪

[@amandadavis9726]

@@GarageStrength he could possibly be too low in his stance. Some players think that they have to be “coiled up” in their stance, to get off the ball quicker. But that’s not true at all. It actually slows them down. He also needs to check his footwork, in regards to his first two steps. If he makes contact with the defender on his first step,...he won’t have any power at the point of contact. He will literally find himself “wrestling” with much smaller defenders. If he can make contact on his second step,...he will more than likely become a much more effective blocker,...and that’s barring that he has good pad level and hand placement.

I would try to eat a lot. We have a video coming out soon for in season nutrition for football which offers general diet guidelines for lineman. Also try to strength train 3 times a week and focus on strengthening your squat, bench, clean, and snatch. It sounds like a lot, but this will help you improve greatly. Stay tuned for that nutrition video 💪

Tray working on low blocking drills with your coach. Also you can improve your posture by working that in a full depth squat in the weight room. Keeping your torso up as you squat ass to grass will allow to be more comfortable in low positions when you explode off the line.
