4 week results




The retest of the big three lifts (bench, clean and squat) were very encouraging. The younger kids (8th grade and up) showed great improvement. An average of 30 pounds on a bench, 20 pounds on a clean and close to 50 pounds on the back squat.

Our older athletes also showed great improvement, but with experience comes slower progress. Some elite litters go years with only a few pound improvement.

That being said, with the adults we showed an average of 15 pounds on the bench, 20 squat pounds, and 20 clean pounds. Over a four week period, that also includes some very tough conditioning routines, I am very happy with the results.

As far as the population that is working on my program, I don't discriminate for anything other than injury. By that I mean, everybody lifts, jumps and sprints regardless of background, soccer mom, to football player, to tennis player, to executive. The movements are taught in a safe manner, and we have demonstrated good results in all groups. That we work with.

I am looking forward to seeing what my high school football players can do with this the SAS program. They are presently starting on week 2, they have just finished there season, so I will keep you posted.

Week 4 is upon us


Week four of the first cycle of the SAS program starts tommorow with a retest of the big three lifts. Regardless of result, the program will continue to be an ever improving entity. The program's main objective is to produce athletic excellence by constantly being open to necessary change, and adapting to an ever changing sports needs enviroment.
