I would like to take a moment to acknowledge the diligent efforts exhibited by the Tornadoes this spring. Following a roughly seven-week period, we conducted an initial test and subsequently retested on the first day of summer workouts. Utilizing our OVR Sprint timing system, the results were impressive, with a team average increase of 1.492 MPH among previously tested athletes, which is a remarkable improvement in such a timeframe. I would like to extend gratitude to the players for their hard work, as well as the Bradford Administrators, Coach Baker, and Bradford Football Boosters for their support. This marks only the beginning of our journey. Go Big Red! @ZacGoodman_ @BurnTheLadders @pntrack @BHSTornadoFB @sampson_BHS

@jamesmoses2k I’ve noticed young guys hate wearing the belt high on the hips does letting it rest the thighs make it more comfortable?

You don’t intentionally underload a system that is already neurally inefficient.

You load it to create neural efficiency as a means of adaptation.

For this reason, we use maximal loads very frequently.

@Challenger_ST He’s just trying to break the punt returner’s focus. There’s other ways to do it, but I get it.

This!

The lesser talked about advantage of using Brief Maximal Tension…

There’s no junk reps. Every single rep per set is stimulating.

Meaning you accumulate the same adaptation for less cost (fatigue).

Unmatched for Athletes who have lots of volume outside of the Weightroom🙌🏻

Loved letting the men know what the current climate in recruiting is and advising them that every action is being evaluated.

[Bradford Tornadoes @BHSTornadoFB]

Thank you to new strength and performance coach Rich Covey for talking about his experience and the recruiting process!!!

On Feb 16th, 6 weeks ago, I hit 460 for a single on this movement. Today, I hit three top sets of 470x3, 500x3, and 520x3 with a little left in the tank. Us two old guys still pretty strong. @Baker_A_Ross @CoveyManny @BHSTornadoFB

“Coach our Squats and Cleans are going up but the Jumps aren’t moving”…

I get this in maybe half of my Consults.

The culprits are always… 👇🏻

1. No Dumbbell Jumps

2. No Box Squats

3. Circuit Training

4. No feedback device

5. High Rep Schemes

@coachelichter What in the actual?
