Message: [QUOTE="husky429, post: 3453311, member: 6696"] To expound upon my Carlton comments. The goal was to get him big and strong, recognizing that his game is going to be earthbound. It would make sense to get him massive to maximize the things he is good at. He hasn't been able to capitlize fkr whatever reason. There are TONS of huge unathletic dudes competing in d1 ball. They play to their strengths and with good IQ. Gives me hope for carlton--I think he can adapt his game and be a real contributor. Also, I take this stuff a little bit too seriously because I have a rather personal connection to our S&C program. I'll leave it at that. I am not close to an expert. Far, far from it. But That being said, it's pretty obviously that there are different levels of S&C IQ on this board. Pretty hard to have a semi-intellectual conversation with people who think a kettlebell swing is dangerous. Other than literally a no weight, form-only hip hinge, that's about as simple as it gets. Kids start them at age 10 for crying out loud. Are there any less risky lower back exercises? I trust Sal. I know Hurley does. He is experienced, motivated and totally bought-in to helping these kids. There is nothing fancy about this program. He's working the kids up to big compound lifts. And a warm-up. Standard stuff, but very well structured. [/QUOTE]
