Abstract

You must win off the field, in order to win on the field. The purpose of this study was to find the most effective way to periodize train high school football players, and maximize strength and power performance before, during, and after the season. This study is significant to the strength and conditioning community because it provides a comprehensive layout that is not readily available in literature for high school football. The researchers conducted an extensive review of literature in order to attain the data. A limitation of this research was that the designed program was not implemented on any athletes; it was merely a program based on past literature. A benefit of this study is that it will provide football coaches with a detailed, educated resource to create training programs for their own team. This should be beneficial at the high school level, as it is often not feasible to have a professional certified strength and conditioning coach to guide athletes in a training program.
