🗣️ You MUST lift in-season… you wanted context, so let’s talk about it! 🔑 Read the below… change how you look at in-season training 1️⃣ “I don’t want to be sore.” Understand context. Understand protocol that can be taken in a GOOD program by a GOOD coach who can have you work in a way that gets or maintains results without frying you!! Sub-maximal strength work, isometrics, limited sprint volume. All work 2️⃣ “I don’t have time. I have games or practices 5x per week.” Please keep your two off days as off days. Big hack? Do speed or jump work before games or practices to prime you to be ready to go! Do sub max strength work after games or practices. You’ll already be warmed up AND odds are the sub max lifting will be less intense than sport so it’ll actually be a cool down of sorts 3️⃣ “Why lift after games or practices?” It’s simple. While you may think you’re better off not doing too much on one day, it’s actually better to stack higher intensities on the same days so you can use days you’re off from your sport to be COMPLETE rest days 4️⃣ “I’ll get hurt from doing too much.” Again, moderation & quality programming are keys here. A good program will actually HELP you stay resilient, avoid burnout & counter the high amounts of reps you’re getting in your sport as a way to stay strong & healthy 5️⃣ “Why can’t I just wait until the off-season?” Of course you can. But let me ask you this. The in-season is probably the biggest chunk of time you have in your year. Can you really afford to NOT train for several months? You’ll start your off-season just building back to what you were vs. Improving. Then you’ll lose it all again come in-season 🤦‍♂️ 🔑 Read the above… change how you look at in-season training
