My lacrosse season just started and I need a solid in-season program that I can use for the season. If no one has a lacrosse program, an in season football program would be fine, just something to keep my weights maintained and make sure I lose as little as possible during the season. Its ironic you work the whole offseason and then in season you lose alot!!

I would do a full body compound workout 2-3 days a week with 5-8 rep range ...or you can do one day heavy and one day light recovery workout....you should fail around 5-6th reps on these exercises....so pick weights accordingly...
Back Squats/Barbell Lunges/Front Squats(rotate): 5,5
Incline Bench Press/Dips/Decline Bench(rotate every other workout):5,5
Deadlifts/Goodmornings/PowerCleans(rotate every other workout):5,5
Sit Ups:5,5 (use incline and/orhold a plate, DB, cable stack attachment)
Chin Ups/Pull Ups:5,5 (add weight to reach only 5 reps)
Standing Barbell Presses:5,5
Close Grip Flat Bench Press/Cable Pressdowns: 5, 5(optional if you got the energy)
Standing barbell or EZ Bar Curls:5,5 (optional if you got energy)
on another day....about 3-4 days apart....you can do a light speed day to help recover.....
so you can do same exercises but use 3-5 sets of 40% of 1rm..and try to move them quickly....or you can do 2-3 sets of 12-15 reps(where you're failing by 15h rep)......
I would also suggest fish oil supplement as it helps prevent muscle breakdown(especially if you're going to be very active in your cardio sport workouts)....
hope this helps....

do these exercises on days before practices(cardio) or on separate days from cardio
