Practice Planning
To run the Wing-T offense like a machine, practice routines should match blocking and technique assignments in games. Coach Ingram shares a highly organized practice schedule that will get coaches and players to perform at their best.

• Learn how to create blocking circuits for every type of play and player. These circuits allow players to master technique through fast-paced, low intensity drills.
• Discover an effective way to teach your quarterback correct reads while saving precious practice time.
• Ingram reveals his pre-season, double session schedule so you have an example to work from when creating your own schedule, which in turn allows you to transition to in-season play efficiently.

Conditioning
The Wing-T requires athletes that can move quickly - not body builders. In this segment, Ingram delivers a functional training plan that will build speed, agility and quickness into your team - without an expensive weight room.

Coach Ingram applies overload principles efficiently and effectively in his workouts. He has developed championship football teams using facilities available to most middle and high schools.

While strength is a key component to his plan, it is not the only focus. He shows you how his teams improve explosiveness and power. His instruction offers a simple yet effective workout for developing each player's athleticism. Coach Ingram explains why helping players move better with improved balance and endurance will allow them to compete with defenses that have become bigger and faster.
