Glad to see you started a log. Do you like machines? Personally, I never have all that much.

No. Actually I'm a true believer in free weights and using as little machines as possible. The problem is we have two weight rooms here at school. Our football weight room which has all of the free weights needed besides heavier dumbells. The other weight room is the student weight room full of treadmills and machines of course.

Thanks guys
Once again I coaches weren't in the office so we couldnt get into the football weight room and had to make due in the student weight room. I think they didnt put any heavy free weights in there cause they are scared some kid will hurt themself and try to sue or something.

Good job my friend. Nice selection of weights and exercises.

I don't mind using the smith at all - but I'm pretty much forced to as the equipment at my gym is fairly limited!

thanks wrestling lyon.... right now I'm doing more bodybuilding workouts. When I get home I will continue this for a few weeks before getting back to my dynamic football stuff that I was telling you about. If you want to check out a good workout like that for your summer training go to www.Defrancostraining.com Read the program called Westside for Skinny Bastards part III. That guy has trained tons of NFL players and guys going to combines

Nice workouts, why do you always use smith machines. Imo you should do some regular benches as well.
