If your working hard ALL YEAR, one workout in MAY should not make you so sore you can't walk. RETIREDFAN1, Morris_era and AthleticSupporter - Jock 3

As do I, point being, when its baseball season let the baseball coach handle his players......they have been lifting, so I don't know if it was the reps or just doing something a little different.

Your right Tigers, I don't know what I was thinking. These kids probably don't know how to work hard since they were projected to place last in district and came in 2nd place. I guess you can do that by being a couch potato.
jeffcoat Posted May 2, 2016 Report Posted May 2, 2016 Point is is that they have got a great staff and Im sure that the new hire is excellent but the UIL discourages football coaches from lifting kids in other sports on game days. As a fact I know that football coaches dont lift their own kids on game days they sure as hell should respect their own coaches and kids enough not to do it to them. For baseball heavy lifting on game day could cause a pitcher or infielder to become somewhat tired and change his throwing mechanics slightly which could lead to shoulder or elbow issues. Low weight high reps or a bunch of pushups no matter how often they have been lifting will for sure cause the players arm to be sore the next day again resulting in a significant or slight change in his natural throwing motion which we all know can lead to arm issues. They are #1 in softball baseball is going great. They have excellent coaches and kids that work. Im sure the new AD/football coach will also be great. Lets just hope that he respects the other programs and is comfortable enough in his own skin to them them coach. JUMBOTRON and Mac 2

There's a reason you have been through handful of AD's and can't figure out why so many athletes but can't turn the corner and to the next level. Strength and discipline!! Leave him alone and let him do his job. New flash, we (WOS) always lifted weights during offseason periodeven before my baseball and soccer games. Never affected me or my teammates.

All that says is if the athlete doesn't want to lift, he doesn't have too. We never had that problem so......

I was just answering the question where it says in the UIL manual that athletes are not required to work out on game day.
jeffcoat Posted May 2, 2016 Report Posted May 2, 2016 Work em out Im all for that, but you cant work them out to a point where it changes their throwing motion because they are sore or tired from that workout. Again, they have a great staff. Ive heard nothing but great things about the AD Head Footballl hire. Like I said I just hope that he has enough faith in himself, his X's & O's, and his ability to lead that he lets his coaches coach and he gives their programs the utmost respect. The same respect that he will demand for his program and authority. PlayActionPass and JUMBOTRON 2
