Strength Report: A Post-Season Developmental Program for Linemenby: Doug SmithD-Line Coach and Strength and Conditioning Coach, Juniata College© More from this issueThe primary objectives of the post-season football developmental program for our linemen are to enhance individual athletic performance and reduce the potential of injury through the implementation of exercises, drills, team concepts and work ethic that transfers directly to the playing field.
To accomplish these objectives, we incorporate a fourteen-week cycle divided into three phases. The first four weeks is a transition phase beginning at the end of the season. This phase is used for recovery and testing along with review and teaching of lifting mechanics and technique.
