FOOTBALL TRAINING

Robbie Roper, Live Like 5, Roswell Football, Legends Never Die, Love you brother

LIVE LIKE #5

We lost one of our football training family on Dec 22, 2021. Robbie Roper was a very special young man. This page, this website, and this gym will always and forever be dedicated to him. As long as our gym stands, people will know the name Robbie Roper. They will learn about his story as an athlete. All the things he accomplished, and the amazing future he had ahead of him. But more than that, they will learn about who he was as a human being. They will learn about how he took one of our special needs clients under his wing. How he refused to talk about his own accomplishments, and instead chose to build up those around him. They will learn how he worked harder than anyone in the room, while still constantly making jokes and smiling ear to ear. And people will know that his spirit forever lives in this gym, and guides everything we do. Rest in peace brother. You did great.

NEVER FORGOTTEN | MISS YOU BROTHER

DEAR GOD, help me be a good sport in the game of life. I don’t ask for an easy place in the lineup. Put me anywhere you need me. I only ask that I can give you 100% of everything I have. If all the hard drives seem to come my way, I thank you for the compliment. Help me to remember that you never send a player more trouble then he can handle with your help…

And help me, Lord, to accept the bad breaks as part of the game. May I always play on the square no matter what others do…Help me study…THE BOOK so I’ll know the rules…

Finally, God, if the natural turn of events goes against me and I am benched for sickness or old age, help me accept that as a part of the game, too. Keep me from whimpering that I was framed or that I got a raw deal. And when I finish the final inning, I ask for no laurels; all I want is to believe in my heart, I played as well as I could and that I didn’t let you down.

Amen.

TARGETED APPROACH

Georgia Personal Training offers cutting edge football training programs for those looking to take their game beyond high school. Our trainers specialize in various aspects of sports performance like strength, power, speed, agility, and injury prevention. Working with a personal trainer that specializes in sports performance is crucial for aspiring college football players.

Firstly, a sports performance specialist possesses comprehensive knowledge of human physiology and biomechanics, enabling them to design training programs that optimize athletic performance and minimize the risk of injuries. By analyzing an athlete’s unique physical attributes and assessing their strengths and weaknesses, the trainer can develop a targeted training regimen that focuses on enhancing specific skills required for football, such as agility, speed, endurance, and power.

SCIENCE BASED METHODS

Secondly, a sports performance specialist utilizes evidence-based training methods rooted in exercise science. They possess a deep understanding of the physiological adaptations that occur in response to various training stimuli. Through this understanding, they can implement periodization, a systematic approach to training that achieves optimal results by structuring workouts, rest periods, and intensity levels in a strategic manner. This scientific approach ensures that athletes progress steadily, avoid plateaus, and maximize their athletic potential.

INJURY PREVENTION

Furthermore, a sports performance specialist plays a crucial role in injury prevention and rehabilitation. Through their expertise, they can identify potential muscular imbalances, movement dysfunctions, or improper biomechanics that may increase the risk of injuries. By addressing these issues through corrective exercises, mobility work, and injury prevention strategies, the specialist can safeguard an athlete’s long-term health and performance.

MENTAL TOUGHNESS

Lastly, working with a sports performance specialist provides athletes with a psychological advantage. The specialist serves as a valuable mentor, offering guidance, motivation, and support throughout an athlete’s journey. They create a positive and empowering training environment that fosters mental toughness, resilience, and confidence. This psychological component is essential as it can significantly impact an athlete’s performance on the field, their ability to handle pressure, and their overall well-being.

From tailored training programs to evidence-based methods, injury prevention, and psychological support, GPT trainers offer a comprehensive approach to optimize athletic performance and increase the chances of success in achieving one’s goals.

INCREASING STRENGTH IS NOT ALWAYS THE SAME AS INCREASING SIZE

When it comes to football training, there are different scientific approaches for building maximum strength versus just building bigger muscles. To build maximum strength, the focus should be on enhancing your body’s ability to exert force. Your training program should focus on heavier weights, compound lifts, explosive movements, and creating an adaptive neurological response.

To build strength, prioritize heavy weights that challenge your muscles. Aim for sets with fewer reps, typically in the range of 1 to 6. Focus on generating maximal force with each repetition. This will train your nervous system to recruit more muscle fibers and strengthen the contractions your muscles can produce. Allow for sufficient recovery between sets, ensuring your muscles have enough time to replenish their energy stores and be ready for the next heavy lift. Lastly, incorporate compound lifts as often as you can. Compound exercises involve multiple muscle groups. Examples would be squats, deadlifts, bench presses, and power cleans. Including these movements in your routine allows you to engage more muscles simultaneously, stimulating overall strength development.
