Lifting

[VitaVol]

For true growth and developement, maxing is almost useless. I always get a kick out of threads like this.

so said the guy that works out to Richard Simmons

Vitavol maxing is only to show the guys there work is paying off. We will max one more time before football starts. Then several go straight into wrestling so they would have maxed 2 times this year. Training hard is what gets you the results.

[VitaVol]

Training hard in the proper REP RANGE is where you get results, along with proper diet and nutrition. Failure after 8-10 reps is where you should be for growth. Maxing is simply a gauge but one not even used by Universities. UT (and most schools) use the Nebraska Forumla for calculating max: 1.1 X the most weight you can do for 10 reps.

 

Save the true maxes and use the gauge. Save your tendons, ligaments and other injuries from occuring along the way. Don't let ego get in the way of safety.

I Dont know if this is good for my size, for a soon to be Junior, but I weight 150 and about 5'10". I ran my 40 in like 5.3 but i know i could get 5 flat in cleats (insted of skate shoes) But i bench 215 and squat 305. Is that any good for a corner?

Coalfield Sophmores Ryan Carson (206 pds) and Benjamin Duncan (200 pds) squating close to 500...Also Sophmore Dustin Carrol (226 pds) benching 350. Chris Coker (205 pds) and Terry Jones (240 pds) are also 2 Sophmores who are benching at least 300.

Thirsty Turtle, I think that Kenny will probably stay around the same weight becasue he wrestles too. He's probably going to want to stay in the 189lb. weight class next year instead of moving up to the 215lb. weight class.

[etown2]

I dont know if this is good but a guy from Elizabethton highschool, jake jenkins who is going to UVA Wise, is full squating 625 lbs, benching 445lbs, and power cleaning 335. He weighs quiet a bite at 280 and 6ft 2" but he is the strongest to be here in a whille.
