The people on the forum will be able to give you better advice if you provide some more information.

  1. What is your height and weight?

  2. What is your goal; do you want great powerlifting numbers or to improve your speed and strength on the football field? These goals can be similar, but they are not identical.

  3. For powerlifting, what weight class do you want to participate it?

  4. What position(s) do you play in football?

  5. What are your weak points on the football field (strength/speed/other) what are your weak points on the three competitive lifts (where do you tend to lose a max squat, are you a strength lifter or a speed lifter, where do you have problems on bench and DL?)

  6. When is your next PL meet?

All of these factors will have a tremendous impact on your programming.

Definitely give us goals as to what you want to achieve first. If your primary concern is improving your game or improving your lifts for a meet.

  1. 5 foot 7 190lbs

2.right now getting my powerlifting numbers up, but once summer starts more running and speed.

  1. fullback, linebacker, some some nose gaurd

  2. problems on the feild are mostly speed, i have a very good jump off the line but my down feild speed is lagging, in squat my worst part is the bottom i tend to get stuck in the hole, im probaly more of a strength lifter, in the bench my sticking point is my chest, my lockout strength is defently my strong point, dead lift is strange, i did rack pulls for the first time and i could only do 20 more pounds than my regular deadlift so i think my sticking point might be lockout.

  3. My next meet isn’t untill this winter.
