Need Help Making My Football Lineman Workout Routine

[GILL]

I am 5'10 and 240 pounds. I play Center and Guard on Offense and on Defence I play Nose Guard

I currently need help sorting out my workout routine. I want to go 3 days on and 1 day off. As a lineman I know that I need to do squats, bench, deadlifts, cleans and other lifts.

Someone move this to the GPP section, and we really need to sticky the Defranco material in there for all football specific questions...

Just from experience of being a linemen. Incline press would benefit you a lot more then bench. In high school i didn't benefit from any cleans. I always hated doing Olympic lifts. All i did was squats, squats and more squats, bench and incline press. I didn't go by what my strength coach routine told me what to do. I went by my things that work for myself. I would say on your off days do some core work.

First off most Coaches do not their ass from a hole in a ground. Concentrate on squats deadlifts and incline bench but does close grip. If you look at the angle you are hitting people this is the movement that resembles this. Olypic movements are a waste of time. How many times do you lift a guy above your head? Read Louie about this. Stick to the basics if you have any questions e-mail me jpav50russianbear@hotmail.com. Good luck because I had this source when I first started
