Silverback strength and conditioning3/15/2023 ![]() Many days the regular lifting routine would be fine for those having a game or not. Heck in many case the lifting teacher isn't asking athletes to push it to the ultimate limit within the hour of actual workout time most of them have. Nor are most students really trying to push themselves to the breaking point over the course of that same hour. Realistically trying to get most of the students to just lift with maximum effort and proper form is a daunting task for most. However, on a few of those class days the style of lifting could indeed cause some minor issues for an athlete who will have a game later that day. For that the teacher could easily ask those athletes to make a minor adjustment to the number of lifts, the amount of reps, the amount of weight, skip/substitute one of the lifts in the rotation, etc. A lifting teacher with a decent background in exercise science should be able to recognize when he/she has assigned a particularly taxing routine and know what adjustments would be warranted for completion athletes. So yes based on what I have seen before getting in a good lifting routine and sweat going is helpful to most athletes on game day. Especially when you consider most athletes are spending the majority of the day rest in a school desk. I'm not exercise science expert, but have seen enough lifting plans and talked to enough exercise science guys to know that it more helpful than harmful to do some exercise on a game day. However, a good teacher should be mindful enough of what he/she is planning to know if that routine could be a possible detriment to the athletes competition performance.I have good news and bad news. You will, at a point or more in your life be physically injured by something you do. Our bodies are incredibly resilient, but whether it’s falling while walking your dog or bench pressing more than you should (to use myself as an example in the last 12 months), you will get hurt. The good news! Again, that whole resiliency thing! Your body wants to be healthy and functional, in fact it’s very good at it when provided the right attention. In fact, it’s so good at it that try as we might (sitting all day, eating fluorescent things, not sleeping), it still supports us asking all kinds of things from it. ![]() Have you ever actually considered how amazing it is? If you put anything except three slightly different (we’re talking there actually might not be a difference) grades of gasoline in your car, it will immediately cease to go. Not run slower or sputter, but flat out destroy itself. Our bodies?
