I need a routine for football so I can maintain strength and give me a mental boost over everyone. Or, maybe gain some strength hehe. I need a routine though. I was thinking I would stick to my routine I left off with but I read a lot of people doing Bill Starr's 5x5 for football. I have a machine at my school gym that I drew from memory. You stand in a squat rack type thing and they have these 2 handles that you grasp and you just basically shoot them up with your shoulders and legs. Its hard to describe but maybe the pic will help (JK). I want to lift Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Reason being, I have games on Thursdays and Fridays usually. so that way, I have a day before and after to rest up from my wounds. I will lift in the morning before school then go to practice on Monday. Please help me with the right choice!! I come to you guys for alot, I know but its cause I get good advice from you and quick answers. Thanks alot guys!
Which routine should I go with? (Note: I will had that exercise into every day)
Monday – Heavy Day
Squat – 5 sets of 5
Bench – 5 sets of 5
Powercleans – 5 sets of 5
2 sets of weighted hypers
4 sets of weighted Sit-ups
Wednesday – Light Day
Squat – 4 sets of 5
Incline Bench – 4 sets of 5
High Pulls – 4 sets of 5
Sit-ups – 3 sets
Friday - Medium
Squat – 4 sets of 5, 1 triple, back-off
Bench – 4 sets of 5, 1 triple, back-off
Powercleans – 4 sets of 5, 1 triple
Weighted Dips – 3 sets of 5-8
Triceps and Biceps – 3 sets of 8 each
Is that good for lifting in-season? I need some serious help here so please help. I wont be lifting M,W,F I will be lifting Saturday, Sunday and Monday. It would help if I could find a 4 day routine. Will this work though?
