I play university level american football.... yes in the uk!
Goals: get lean, fit and faster on the field.
I will do this through training, not drinking and sticking with realistic nutrition guidelines.
American football training recommences on tuesday 8th. We train 2-3 times a week depending if we have a game or not. I will lift around twice per week and fit a couple extra cardio sessions in too.
Haven't lifted for 2 weeks due to xmas and illness so weights are down.
2nd January 2008
Oly Squat 120kg 3x5
Bench 95kg 3x5
Deadlift 170kg 1x5

cool
yep offensive line protects the skinny qb... defensive line (oppositve the offensive line) and the linebackers (generally behind them) try to kill the qb
85kg! skinny! do you keep a journal anymore?

Hi Cheggers,
I used to play a lot when I was in America, I was a tailback and then a safety. I've recently dropped it though because I'm taking up MMA, don't think my body could handle doing Football and MMA. What position on the line are you?
Good luck with you training by the way!
