First day of college football workouts

What the fuck? I normally do 5x5, why so many sets?

why don't you ask the people who are telling you to do it you fucking moron. Is that what your first thought was in your pathetic life? WHAT WOULD FIT THINK ABOUT THIS GUYS

Conditioning and hypertrophy.

5x5 is for barely athletic teenagers who haven't lifted before.

The assumption, I presume, is that anyone looking to play college ball is strong enough to need more volume and conditioned enough to tolerate it.

Or the strength coach is an idiot. That's always possible.

>ask fitness related question on fitness board
>hurr are you retarded

logical strength training is hard to come by since there's a lot of confirmation bias at elite levels

when you get the strongest dudes to work with by default, anything you do will get results. scientific studies are pretty much always poorly designed so reading journals for new advice ends up being a waste of time

this is the kind of shit rippetoe bitches about constantly. poliquin does too if youre inclined to be a faggot and say 'rippetoe hasnt produced any athletes'

d1?

I thought most of the elite level programs were highly logical, yet not necessarily scientific.

Illogical would be crossfit and the sort

you're a turbo autist if you would rather ask strangers online instead of someone fac to face

What the fuck?
