Plan Details

The Train Like An Athlete: Football Workout Routine routine by JefitTeam is a 28 day workout plan. It is an intermediate level plan to achieve general fitness goals.

The Jefit Train Like an Athlete Workout is geared towards athletes who play football. The 4-week plan will build overall, sports-specific strength with a focus on increase hip and leg power, needed to play this sport at a high level. A secondary goal is to develop core strength. This plan is not specific to football positions but more for overall strength & conditioning. Many of these exercises are used by strength and conditioning coaches on the high school and college level. There are five training sessions each week, rest one full day between training sessions. Adequate recovery between training bouts is critical if you want to see gains in your performance on the playing field. Stay Strong Together, MICHAEL WOOD, CSCS Jefit
