Eric Lichter stealing two birthday cakes (Beanie, Washington) that were left by the parents. It's all business now.
Barwis may have his pet wolves, but Lichter yoinks birthday cakes.

little long distance for a lineman. More of huge variety of training different types of sporting activities like, yoga, martial arts,swimming,boxing,stretching,,,,,,,,,,, Not all but, he/Lichter would notice what each player would need to do to improve his weaknesses and positives. Those would be off/on,,,,,with heavy lifting Just like he said. He didn't train them individually that I can tell .The game has changed so much, that the players need it. For example, gifted athletic types should focus more on strength then, speed and endurance in a 2 or 3 week training to a 1 week of speed. Bigger players, need the Cardio/endurances/ hand/arm reactions for 2 or 3 weeks training then , the strength for a week or 2.MUBuck;1407075; said:If you mean make the lineman run distance, that's the worst possible thing you can do for a power athlete. I didn't listen to the interview, but if he's making them do a multitude of short-duration high-intensity exercises (which I'm sure he is), then he's doing the right thing.

Differences in the weeks training would go with the results each player had doing it. Look at the lineman then, compare them to the rest of team. Someone missed the Cardio training and had the worse diet
MUBuck;1407162; said:I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Football players are power athletes, no matter the position. Running anything but sprints is a waste of time (other than a warm-up jog). It's the principle of specificity; you train like you would play. At no time in a football game do you jog. At no time in a football game do you run for more than 10-15 seconds tops, and that's only a select few positions. Physiologically speaking, very, very rarely would a football player ever use an energy pathway other than the creatine phosphate pathway. Football is an anaerobic sport, and training aerobically is actually counterproductive. I'm sorry if it seems like I'm going off on you, but this is something that fans just don't understand about training. They aren't training for a bodybuilding competition, they're training too be quicker, faster, and more powerful.
bukIpower;1407242; said:I agree with some of this, but football players IMO also need to train aerobically as well. Not extensively, but not everything has to be 40 yard dashes either. Plyometrics lasting longer then 10 seconds is extremely common. As are agility drills, balance drills, and flexibility drills. Not everything has to be done anaerobically.
Also yes, if you're working anaerobically creatine really comes into play. However, b6 and b12 are both great sources for energy. More so than creatine? No, not in this case but creatine also isn't a necessity either.
Also you're not really in a position to say he's wrong, because there's MANY ways to do things. There's not really a set way. For example yeah I wouldn't want to see my players kicking and punching in a Karate class or something very frequently, but Yoga for example or Pilates is EXTREMELY demanding on the core. Core strength cannot be stressed enough in football. Swimming? Also a pretty good workout for around this time of the year. They're going to run, they're going to lift, so why not do something this time of the year that takes stress of the joints such as swimming? Stretching? well I think you knwo how important that is in football. I'm not saying they should be a staple in someone's training but certainly it wouldn't hurt to do these things from time to time.
While not a bodybuilding competition, football training is far more complicated than lining up and running around for 10 seconds. Again unless an obvious FACT, I wouldn't straight out say a member is wrong. What you said is your opinion, and I agree with some of it. However, I also disagree with some of it because I believe there's many ways to do things. IMO the more diverse the better. Which is why you don't see a template workout regime throughout college football.
akronbuck;1407058; said:the ones with low carb , low/high fiber and no sugar are the best. Stay away from Gatorade unless, its the zero one.
Tastes a lot better...tundra1;1407547; said:Stay away from Gatorade, period. Not because it's bad for you...because the University of Florida still makes royalties off the stuff. Why support them? Drink Powerade instead.
