I want to play college football

Question
Right now I go to a small high school of about 200 students. I am a senior.
This is my third year of football. I want to play football for at least one more
year, but the college I want to go to plays division II football. While I am a
starter for my team of 16 players (which won the championship last year, and
is probably at least going to playoffs this year), I am not sure I would even
make the team if I tried out on a division II college!

On my team, I play offensive line, tight end, defensive line, and linebacker. I
am not very big however, only 165 pounds right now.  I've seen the roster for
the school I want to go to, and they are huge! Any ways, my question would
be:
What do you think I should do to increase my chances of success in college
football?( I already plan on weightlifting after football, and getting bigger)

Answer
Dear Bill:
Do everything you can to get into the best shape of your life. And just give it your foremost effort.

REMEMBER ONLY A DOCTOR CAN TELL YOU IF THE PROGRAM YOU ARE STARTING IS TOO MUCH FOR YOU. You need to get your PARENTS, your COACH, and your DOCTOR involved.

1. GET YOUR PARENTS PERMISSION AND ASK FOR THEIR ADVICE. THEY CAN BE OF GREAT HELP TO YOU.

2. TALK TO YOUR COACH HE IS THERE TO HELP YOU. HE WANTS YOU TO SUCCEED. HE CAN GET YOU STARTED ON THE RIGHT PROGRAM.

3. BEFORE YOU START ANY PROGRAM MAKE SURE YOU GET YOUR PARENTS PERMISSION AND YOUR DOCTORS OKAY.

You want to be quicker than everybody else and be able to run like a linebacker? Try basketball it will help you get into football shape. It will teach you how to run back, forth, and side to side without thinking about it. Basketball will also help your coordination, quickness, conditioning, and improve your foot work. This type of workout is especially good if you want to play half-back, defensive end, or you just want to run with the ball.

You want to be coordinated add handball to your workout schedule. Just like in basketball, handball forces you to run back, forth, and side to side without having to think about it. You just react to the ball much like in football. Handball can be of great help, to a football player, for all the same reasons as basketball.

Try playing these two sports, as part of your routine workout, and you will get into fantastic football shape. You will also improve your reaction time. If you do not want to play basketball or handball try some running.

Do you want to be fresh in the fourth quarter when everybody else is exhausted? Start by running a 1/2 lap around the football field everyday. Be sure to sprint the last 100-yards of your run. This way you work on your wind sprints and long distance running at the same time.

After a week or so, when you feel up to it, add a half a lap to your workout. Keep adding a half a lap, every week or so, until you reach 3 or four miles per workout. Only workout once a day, you do not want to over do it. You want to build your body up not use it up. Be sure to drink lots of water, you will need it. And do not do all three work outs together. Just pick one and do it.

TAKE IT SLOW. Do not push too hard and make sure that you get checked by a Doctor first.

DO NOT DO THIS WORK OUT IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN WORKING OUT REGULARLY.THIS WORK OUT WILL CAUSE YOUR MUSCLES TO CRAMP UP FOR A MONTH IF YOUR BODY IS NOT READY FOR IT. I AM NOT KIDDING.   

You need to get your PARENTS, your COACH, and your DOCTOR involved.

1. GET YOUR PARENTS PERMISSION AND ASK FOR THEIR ADVICE. THEY CAN BE OF GREAT HELP TO YOU.

You might want to give this work out a try.
Try doing Hundreds it is a muscle blaster to the max. The way to do hundreds is to lift 1/4 of what you normally would lift for 100-reps.

For example if you normally lift 200 pounds on the bench press you would cut that amount to 50 pound more or less. Your goal would be to bench press 50-pounds 100-times. Your first few reps will seem easy but before you get to a total of 100-reps your muscles will give out. Rest for only a minute or so and then continue from where you left off.

Lets say that you were only able to do 25-reps before your muscles gave out, then you would need another 75-reps to finish your workout.

You want to have a total of 100-reps.You do not want to count sets you only want to count reps. Do as many sets as it takes to reach a total of 100-reps. No more!

You can only do hundreds on two major body groups at a time and never on the same day. Try this workout.

Do your chest and back workout on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays only. On Tuesday and Thursday workout your legs and rest on Saturday and Sunday.

Do one exercise of 100-reps a day (only) and you are done with that muscle group for the day. NO MORE! You DO NOT WANT TO OVER DO IT.

This is a major wake up call for your chest, back, or what ever muscles you want to work on. You can do the same type of work out for your other body parts. For example, try working out your biceps and triceps together or quadriceps and calves. Do not do all these work outs in one day because it is too much for the body to recover from. Short (45-minute) naps during the day are great to help the body grow.

Short (45-minute) naps during the day are great to help the body grow. Drink lots of water, get lots of sleep, and do not over do it. Remember your body needs time to recover from the workouts. And this is also the time, during which, your body grows.

If you have any questions on how to do your work out just let me know. I will be more than happy to help you in any way I can.

Your friend, Coach Louis

PS. Remember your body does all its growing when it is at rest, not when you are working out so give it time to recover from the workouts.
