All in all i could blame it on alot of things but the bottom line is i wasn't strong enough and i wasn't fit enough. I weigh 145 and dont have too much muscle I want to improve my stamina, speed, arm strength, and my over all size. I'm 6 foot with a 31inch waist and want to play strong safety. So i need quick bursts of speed any tips or dieting suggestions would be helpful, thanks. I just found this site and its very helpful :dumbbell:

Good luck... -------------- Michael Those who think they know everything, annoy those of us who really do.

You have to have a stable athletic position and the secret to that is strong legs and core. Also to get seperation from the linemen you need to lock and push him away, this would be alot easier with strong chest. For tackling I find it helpful to do power cleans. this help recreate rolling your hips through a ball carrier. Powerlifting=football success.
