Any idiot can make strength and conditioning "hard". Players puking in buckets is hardly the mark of excellence. Preach. I heard that a few guys got rhabdo here recently. This is not good, gentlemen. Not good at all. 1 Quote Link to comment

Years ago the idea of not giving water was "smart" of course now we know that 10/10 doctors recommend water. I had this a-hole that forced himself on my coaching staff a few years ago...he hated water breaks, thought it was "weak" and all that crap. Same with puking...I get it...you worked hard...but it is actually bad for you (unless it is after a hard night of partying...then it makes you feel better) Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 SIAP - sounds like we had basically abandoned squats the last three years. That seems to be changing now. 4 Quote Link to comment

BIGREDIOWAN Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Obviously we all know that strength and conditioning has been an issue for some time now so that had to change at some point. It sounds like the coaches did assessments and tailored it down some for the players. I don't think there was any malice intent here to injure the players or cause these issues and we know this was something completely unforeseen based on the coaches comments on this situation. There is a fine line to walk here between working the players just hard enough or overworking them and this proves that. My guess is that won't happen again and this program will make the players much stronger in the long run. Maybe these two did some other exercises they weren't supposed to do and the coaches were unaware of that or maybe they worked harder than the coaches thought they were going to. Regardless, lessons to be learned for sure here so this doesn't happen again. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 As a follow up to the above, "abandoned" was probably a bit hyperbolic. It sounds like they did squats to some extent. But not nearly as much/as often as would probably be expected. Or - from the sounds of it - not nearly what they will be doing going forward. Quote Link to comment
