with Al Fracassa,
Birmingham Brother Rice HS (MI) Head Coach,
6 State Championships, All-time wins leader in Michigan HS FB;
and featuring Dave Sofran

Year-round strength training has become a standard in high school football. Dave Sofran presents a time-tested and innovative program used at the legendary Brother Rice High School football powerhouse. The program centers around a workout called the "maintain lift," which focuses on maintaining strength and preventing injury. The agility portion of the program is a four-week session that takes place in March and is where agility and speed are developed. Summer conditioning includes a balance of running, lifting and season preparation. A rigorous workout of running in place, core stretches, leg stretching, leg lifts, partner-leg stretches, jumping jacks, partner-back stretches and neck exercises are a demonstrated over the course of this program. A series of 6-second drills are done with partners and include leg-lift drills, triple jumps, jump-overs and leap-frogs. You'll also get a bonus session called "full-court conditioning." In all, 13 drills make up this intense, challenging workout. This is the perfect DVD for coaches at all levels who are looking to add some new life to their strength and conditioning program!
