A Quick Football Workout…What I Did Today

Hey everyone…I’ve been getting emails asking what my current training looks like so I’ve decided to give a few glimpses into my daily training.

This is what I did today – you’ll notice that it’s a pretty short session. This is part of the plan; part of the new Chop-Wave Method that you guys will be learning about in the next few weeks. I started Chop-Wave for muscle building but I’m finding it’s extremely good for football training as well!

  • (Just to let you know, as I said on Twitter the other day, my arms are up over a full half-Inch in 6 days…yes, Chop-Wave is that effective!)

Anyway, here’s what today looked like:

  • Snatch Grip Deads in the Rack (Bar set at mid-shin) – 45, 135, 225, 275, 315 x 3,  365, 405, 455, 505, 565 x 2
  • Romanian Deadlifts – 355, 405, 405, 455, 475 x 5
  • Standing Band Crunch – 3 x 15

 

Now, this is basically half the workout. The second half will take  place tuesday…very specific accessory exercises designed to support strength, speed, and power for football.

Note that abs are trained about 5 days a week now, and the body is in a constant state of cycling between stress and recovery – which is exactly what is needed if you want to get bigger, faster, more explosive and stronger for football.
