At the breiging for football there was 130 that signed up but only 30 go sometimes and 10 go all the time to the weight room. I'm one of those ten.It is 3 times a week mondays-1 hour wenseddays- 1 hour fridays-1hours:30 minutesI get good grades so time isn't a problem for me. Next year I'm going to play 3 sports fottball, wrestle, and crew.

ANSWER: Dear Amanuel Mehreteab,
Never give up on your dreams. You need to give it your best shot.

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. REMEMBER ONLY A DOCTOR CAN TELL YOU IF THE PROGRAM YOU ARE STARTING IS TOO MUCH FOR YOU. IT IS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN TO BE SORRY!!!!!!!!!!  

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 55 pounds on the bench press you would cut that amount to 10 pound more or less. Your goal would be to bench press 10-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.

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 workout on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays only. On Tuesday and Thursday workout you back.

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 and back. You will need plenty of rest to go along with your workout. Remember that your body needs to rest in order to build muscles.

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.

Keep me up to date on your work out. I will make any adjustments needed, if I know what is going on.
Your friend, Coach Louis

QUESTION: how can i work out my back & do u no any drill to become a better sprinter, endurance i have & how to get better at running people over.

Answer
Dear Amanuel Mehreteab,
If you want to work out your back, you have to do pull-ups. That is when you grab ahold of a bar and pull yourself up. This will work the back muscles.
