college recruits

“College football programs put millions of dollars into scouting and recruiting of high school players, equipment and coaching supplies (video equipment), and coaching salaries. While much of this can be covered by alumni donations, tuition and merchandising”
Having a good high school coach, program that can bring scouts in is a great deal of work by the coaching staff and the players. Our cypress bay high school coaches brings in a deal of scouts for us. The players also have to achieve goals to impress the scouts to be able to be recruited. Colleges obviously spend lots of money for their football program to be successful. Having key players for their college is a must to win games so they go around high schools looking for players to give a free ride to college. You know that nothing is free it comes with a price of full dedication to the program. It’s not easy being a student athlete you have a tight schedule in your hands. Having a great deal of discipline is needed to achieve in college.

strength training

Strength training is an absolute must to becoming a better football player. Strength has a great deal of how you perform in the field. Colliding with another person and getting him of you requires for you to use your chest. Most physical athletes use their chest to push of another player to either get him off or to drive him to the floor. When a football player are of the field they are required to strength train on obviously take supplements to help on their performance. By working in their speed and strength it helps them perform a lot better on the field. Most high school athletes work on strength training and speed work to improve their performance. Usually a fast high school player running 4,4 4,5 running 40 yards in 4.4 or 4.5 seconds is pretty fast and will get colleges looking at you just because of your speed but you must be able to use it on the field. Lifting heavy weight helps the muscle get use to heavy weights the more you lift the better you’re off. You must also know how to train properly so you don’t damage a muscle or a tendon. Lifting the wrong way could give you a big disadvantage on the field because you can it worse.

meniscus

Meniscus injuries are the most common knee injuries in football. I’ve had torn meniscus myself on both knees and it took me three months to fully recover, on my other knee it took about a month to recover. I don’t believe it ever healed properly, and reading this article scares me a little bit that a meniscus injury is common again if it’s not healed properly. If I knew that there was treatment for such as A Deep Tissue Therapeutic Inferno Wrap, A Professional Freezie Wrap, High Quality Therapeutic Ultrasound, I would off been better off. Now this makes me wish that I would have had this project earlier. a torn meniscus a tear on the cartridge because twist motion.

Common injuries

One thing you know about football is that there are always injuries when you’re on the field. You can’t try to prevent them you just have to play and hope you don’t get a bad injured. In the game of football you are going to get hurt no matter what. One thing coach always says is that you can play hurt but you can’t play injured, but how exactly do you know when you’re injured or hurt? Well first you see the trainer and he gives you the final word if you can play or not, and if you should see your doctor. The number one advice for a recent injury is to ice and elevation. Most common injury would be a sprain; ankles sprain knee sprain risk sprain back sprain exc. Usually on big games you could play through an injury but your taking a high risk in to making it worse. Football players usually tap their risks and ankles to prevent a knee or risk sprain. Football players are vulnerable to different verities of injuries, but it also depends on the position you play. If you’re a quarter back they constantly use their shoulders and a lineman are more vulnerable to risk, knee and ankle injury’s. in their case they would tap their ankle and risk, and wear a brace to give their body parts more so-port.

Before perfect competition came in to our school we did regular bench, squat, and dead lifts Regular work outs in general. I strongly believe perfect competition gives you an edge on your overall performance. If you are serious about getting and edge on how you perform than you should take a shot at perfect computation. Perfect competition is costly for one on one training however if you do it as a group it will be cheaper P.C focuses on muscle recovery muscle endurance, and twitch muscle fiber.

NFL life

When I started reading about the average lifespan of a football player I was mostly shocked on how they only live up to there 50’s.  All former NFL players pay the price for playing the game. Even though they have top of the line trainer, doctors and equipment they still go through ruff contact. "I decided it was more important to be able to spend quality time with my friends and family and function and communicate normally when I'm 45 than to win a Super Bowl ring," said Burris, 33. Playing this sport is not easy as many people know but what many people don’t know is that this people who make it far enough to play in the NFL are bound to have problems when they age. Most NFL players might do it for the sport, family, or money for whatever reason they know the consequences. If you look in to their world they are more than professional athletes, they are also husbands and fathers that have a different life style then the average Joe, and in to choosing this path is a big choice to make but a choice they will choose with pride to go on and tell their kids how they played in the NFL.

A day as a college football player

The pressure that student athletes go through on day-to-day bases is nothing like a regular college student. Student athletes are expected to act and react a certain way. In the field you are expected to act tuff react on what you are taught. Off the field you are required to turn in the assignments that are given by the prefacer. As a student athlete you have more to loose if you make wrong decision, whether getting in a fight or choosing to do drugs. Student athletes also give up their social life, giving up partying with friends, going out to eat ext. reading the article on student athletes life on campus makes me open my eyes in the responsibilities I am going to have to gain through my senior year.
