strength training for football
how to improve your game with weights Strength and
conditioning conference in Orlando, Florida enhances skills and
increases coaches' knowledge of athletic performance. The old assumption that weight training limits a footballer's flexibility and agility, and wears the body down, has been replaced with the stronger and faster approach—due in part by the practice of employing professional strength and conditioning coaches into every major league team.
In addition, many minor league teams, colleges and universities, junior colleges, and high schools are joining in the conditioning movement. “Strength and conditioning is a scientific process—an understanding of sport conditioning that allows coaches to train athletes to perform at their best, for the entire season and beyond. As in baseball for example: athletes play 162 games in 180 days—they need to be in top condition year around,” stresses Michael Barnes, NSCA Education Director.
