University of South Florida Strength & Conditioning Manual

4/9/07
Dear Bull:

The summer program is a crucial 8-week program designed to build upon the foundation
laid during the off-season. It is during these summer months that our fate will be
determined for the upcoming season. Your teammates, coaches, and fans demand you
give 110% effort this summer. Anything else will not be tolerated.

Within this manual you will find the summer program outlined in detail for the months of
May, June, and July. We will train upper body on Mondays and Thursdays. On
Tuesdays and Fridays we will train lower body. Conditioning will follow each
workout. It is important you condition after your weight room workout to take advantage
of physiological principles.

For those of you on campus lifting groups will be conducted at 7:00, 9:30, 1:00, and 2:30.
The running groups will be 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. If you are off campus and cannot
locate a training facility let me know as soon as possible.

Total dedication and commitment is demanded. At the start of camp all players will be
tested in Height, Weight, Body Fat %, Bench 225-Rep, Vertical Jump, Broad Jump, and
300 yard Shuttle. The team can only be as good as the effort you put forth during the
summer program. Take care this summer and good luck with your efforts. If you have
any questions, feel free to call myself or one of our Assistant Strength Coachs Aaron
Quarberg and Kaz Kazadi at (813) 974-7360.

Sincerely,

Ron McKeefery, MEd. CSCS, SCCC

Speed Development

Speed is the ability to move the body or parts of the body through the required range of
motion in the least amount of time or to solve specific movement tasks in the shortest
possible time. Sprint performance is developed by training for: Technique, Stride
Length, Stride Frequency.

At South Florida you will always train to develop speed. This summer our speed
development program will be conducted on Mondays and Thursdays. The workout
begins with the team performing our flexibility routine and dynamic warm-up, and then is
split into three groups. Each group works a different component of speed and last for
four minutes. The groups rotate between each station. Below you will find our set up
and detailed descriptions of the exercises.

Technique Training Exercises:

A Walks
x Walk coordinating your right arm with left leg and vice versa. Strict attention is
paid to maintaining a 90 degree angle with your elbow, knee, and ankle.
A Skips
x Skip coordinating your right arm with left leg and vice versa. Strict attention is
paid to maintaining a 90 degree angle with your elbow, knee, and ankle.
B Walks
x Perform a A-Walk and add a extension of the upper leg before bringing it to the
ground.
B Skips
x Perform a A-Skip and add a extension of the upper leg before bringing it to the
ground.

Extended Backpedal
x Backpedal bringing your heel to your glutes and fully extending your leg back
towards the finish line. Strict attention is paid to maintaining normal upper body
running mechanics.

Walking Hip Stretch
x Walk grabbing the upper legs ankle with both hands and bringing it up to your
chest. Additionally extend your foot and raise up on the toes of your support leg.
Alternate legs as you walk.

Glute Medius Lunge
x Lunge walking in a straight line touching your knee to the front ankle each time.
Keep hands on your hips. Alternate legs as you walk.

Quick Carioca
x Carioca as quickly as you can flipping your hips around. Strict attention is paid to
keeping your upper body square and rotating at the hips.

Power Carioca Right/Left
x Carioca by driving your leg to your chest and over elongating your stride.

Seated/Standing Arm Action
x Progress from seated to standing with developing upper body mechanics. Begin
by maintaining a 90 degree angle with your elbow, and swinging from the
shoulder from your hip pocket to your cheek. Pay strict attention to not allowing
your hands to cross the midline of your body, and bend at the elbow.

Wall Sprints
x Lean at a 45 degree angle against a wall or fence with one leg up and one support
leg. Keeping your knee at 90 degrees and hips/ankle fully extended switch upper
and lower leg while maintaining proper forward lean and ankles, knees, and hips.

Lean Falls
x Raise up on your toes, keeping your hips high and full extended. Lean forward as
far as you can maintaining full extension of your hips until you have to take a
step. Progress from Lean Falls with one step to Lean Falls with running out.

Push-Up Starts
x Start on your chest in a push up position. On command Push up into the upper
position of a push up. Step placing the foot opposite of your dominate hand
between your legs, and run our of it.

STRIDE FREQUENCY

Stride Frequency is the number of strides (steps) taken in a given amount of time. It is
developed by OVERSPEED TRAINING.

Overspeed Training Exercises:

Speed Ladder
x Locate a speed ladder, tires, or ropes and run trough the openings with as much
foot-speed as possible. Use any number of combinations concentrating on
improving foot speed.

Downhill Runs
x Locate a hill with a 15-25 degree grade (a little more than the crown of a football
field). Place a cone 10 yards up the field and one 10 yards from the bottom of the
hill on a flat surface. Sprint 10 yards down the hill and then 10 yards on the flat
surface.
Bungee
x Only use the bungee under the supervision of a coach or experienced partner.
Attach a one end of a bungee cord to your belt and the other to your partner.
Stretch the bungee 20 yards apart. On command have your partner sprint 10
yards towing you so that you run 30 yards with assistance from the bungee. Rest
90 seconds and repeat for the prescribed number of repetitions.

Load Releases
x Attach a towing device to your waist and have a partner provide resistance for 10
yards and then let go and run an additional 15 yards.

STRIDE LENGTH

Stride Length is the distance covered in one stride during running. It is developed by
OVERLOAD TRAINING, RESISTANCE TRAINING, and PLYOMETRICS.
Resistance training has been discussed in the Olympic and Strength Training sections of
this manual. Plyometric training will be discussed in the next chapter.

Overload Training Exercises:

Uphill /Stadium Runs
x Locate a hill with a 25-45 degree grade. Place a cone on the hill and anther 10
yards up the hill. Sprint from cone one to cone two. If using stairs sprint about
20-30 steps.

Sled Pulls
x Attach a towing sled to your waist and use no more than 10% of your body weight
for resistance on the sled. Sprint towing the sled for 20 yards. Rest and repeat
for the prescribed number of reps.

Towing Harness
x Attach a towing harness to your waist and have a partner provide resistance.
Sprint towing your partner for 20 yards. Rest and repeat for the prescribed
number of reps

Parachutes
x Attach a parachute to a belt on your waist. Sprint against the wind for 30 yards.
Rest and repeat for the prescribed number of reps.

Plyometric Program

Plyometrics are exercises, which train the bodys natural ability to elicit a stronger
muscular contraction. This stronger contraction is made possible by the stretch-reflex
mechanism within the muscle tendon body. Golgi Tendon Organs, located within the
muscle tendon body, send electrical impulses to the brain when the muscle tendon body
feels a force or stretch which may damage itself by tearing the muscle. These impulses
fire more muscle fibers than previously was contracted. The more fibers recruited the
stronger the contraction.

Plyometrics are incorporated into our program mostly throughout our strength training
workouts, but will be used in conjunction with our speed development program.
Plyometric training will be performed on Tuesday and Friday. Workouts will be
conducted after our dynamic warm-up before our conditioning. Below you will find our
set up and detailed descriptions of the exercises.

The athlete sprints 60 yards five times. Their time is recorded by the coach, and the athlete rests the time
it takes for the next athlete to run his shuttle a 1:1 work to rest ratio. The athlete then performs his second
rep of 60 yards x 5 reps. The time is recorded and added to the first repetition and divided by 2 to get the
average. The average of the two repetitions must be within the shuttle qualifying time.

Nutrition

Growing up most of you probably ate whatever you wanted. More than likely
some of you still do. As collegiate athletes your daily training and metabolism have kept
you from storing fat and developing those side effects that are associated with a high
body fat percentage. When collegiate football is your career you must be concerned with
your long-term health. Due to the violent nature of the sport longevity is a rarity.
Whatever you can do to prolong your career benefits you and your family. Proper
nutrition is a controllable factor that can enhance your performance and better your
quality of life. As a collegiate football player you must be concerned with each of the
essential nutrients, what your daily caloric needs are, your body composition, and other
factors that effect nutrition.

Macronutrients & Micronutrients
There are six basic nutrients in the foods you eat. The six basic nutrients are
divided up into two groups. Macronutrients are made up of Carbohydrates, Fats,
Proteins, and Water. Micronutrients are made up of Vitamins and Minerals.
Carbohydrate is the primary fuel source utilized within the body. It includes
sugars, starches, and fiber. Carbohydrate breaks down in the blood to form glucose.
Glucose is the fuel utilized by the brain, muscles, and cellular reactions. Glucose is
stored in the liver and muscles in the form of glycogen. Glucose and glycogen are what
is used every time you resistance train. General guidelines are to keep 65% of your diet
carbohydrates.

Fat is a source of energy that is utilized during low level, long duration exercise.
It is an inefficient source of energy. It takes a long time to break fat down into a usable
fuel. If your body cannot use fat as fuel than it is stored as fat in the body. There are two
types of fat, saturated and unsaturated. Saturated fats include animal fats, butter,
margarine, cream, salad dressings, cheese, shortening, whole milk, fried foods, chocolate,
and many pastries. Unsaturated fats are for lack of a better term "good" fats. Examples
include corn oil, olive oil, and peanut oil. Some fat is essential for protection, buoyancy,
and insulation. To much fat leads to coronary artery disease, heart attack, stroke, and
premature death related to heart disease. General guidelines for fat intake are to keep
15% of your diet from fat, and 5% or less of that from saturated fats.

Protein is primarily used to rebuild and repair muscle tissue. It is broken down
into amino acids for the muscles and other tissues to use. Protein is a poor source of
energy. It is only used as energy when not enough carbohydrate is in the diet. Good
sources of protein include lean meats, chicken, fish, and dairy products. General
guidelines for protein intake are 20% of diet or 1.5 to 1.8 grams per kg (multiply by 2.2
for lbs.). Athletes commonly accept that increasing protein intake will increase ones
muscle mass. It is not the intake of protein, but rather busting your butt in the weight
room that creates a more efficient uptake and utilization of the protein consumed. Taking
in excess protein will be both converted to carbohydrate and burned as fuel, converted to
fat, or excreted through urine.
The Micronutrients, vitamins and minerals are not energy sources. They are
catalysts that help regulate biochemical reactions within the body. Eating a well-
balanced daily diet will ensure that all recommended daily allowances will be met. The
use of a multi-vitamin serves more as a security blanket making sure you have met the
days need.

Bull Training Meal Plan
The six nutrients must be met each day to keep balance or homeostasis within the
body. Having a yo-yo-eating pattern causes imbalance and the body is constantly playing
catch-up. I have included examples of balanced daily meal plan based on the above
percentage guidelines and following the Food Guide Pyramid. Pick the diet plan that
corresponds with your weight. Each plan lists food groups rather than specific food to
allow for variety.

Body Composition
Body composition is the relationship of fat free mass to fat mass. That is what
athletes need to be concerned with. Many times athletes let scale weight determine their
level of conditioning. There is a lot of difference between a linebacker weighing 225
with 10% body fat and one weighing the same with 20% body fat. The difference is
about 23lbs of muscle. Think about how much force if used correctly 23lbs can be. The
pursuit of maintaining a desirable body composition is on going. To monitor your body
composition we will use Pollack, M.L., D.H. Scmidt, and A.S. Jackson; Measurement of
Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Body Composition in the Clinical Setting; Comprehensive
Therapy 6(9): 12-27, 1980. This table for estimating body composition is based on the
sum of three sites: chest, abdominal, and thigh. Body composition testing will be
conducted at the beginning, middle (6 weeks), and end of season. Test results will rate
you as having essential fat, normal fat, or over fat. Proper nutrition and resistance
training will improve your body composition.

Other Nutritional Factors
Hydration is the most important nutritional component of all. Proper hydration
is responsible for many of the biochemical reactions that occur in the body. A decrease
in mandatory hydration levels will lead to a decrease in performance, and can lead to
other more serious medical conditions. Refer to the Hydration section of your manual for
proper hydration guidelines.
The use of Ergogenic Aids to enhance performance is widespread amongst the
athletic community. Athletes are always looking for a way to be better than their
opponent. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has banned several
performance enhancing substances. As a collegiate athlete you must make yourself
aware of those substances and their potential side effects. Refer to the Ergogenic Aids
section of your manual for a complete list of banned substances, potential side effects,
and guidelines for supplement use.
Fast food is a popular part of American cuisine. While in Europe you will often
find yourself substituting your cafeteria style meal for an Extra Value Meal of some sort.
The problem of fast food chains is that they just want the food to taste good for that
minute. That means deep-frying fries, adding mayonnaise to hamburgers/chicken, and
salt to just about everything. These are the types of things that appeal to our taste buds.
Unfortunately these are the same things that are loaded with saturated fats and
cholesterol. Fortunately the fast food chain community is starting to cater to those health
conscious individuals. To maintain a healthy body composition and over all good health
choose those food items that are low in fat and high in nutritional value. A fast food
calorie guide will be available at your request to make yourself aware of possible healthy
selections.
Knowing what the essential nutrients are, following suggested balanced diets,
having a good body composition, and following guidelines for the other nutritional
factors will help increase the chance of a longer career as a collegiate football player.

Ergogenic Aids

Collegiate athletes are always looking for an edge over their opponent. Often
they turn to ergogenic aids (performance enhancement supplements/drugs) and other
forms of supplementation for that little extra they are looking for. The supplement
industry is a multi-million dollar business for that reason. Collegiate athletes must be
concerned with NCAA policy, potential health risk, and guidelines for supplement use.

The NCAA & Supplementation
The passage of The Dietary Supplement and Health Education Act of 1994 has
put athletes at a huge disadvantage. According to this legislation dietary supplements are
no longer classified as a food, thus not regulated by the United States Food and Drug
Administration (FDA). Consequently, dietary supplement manufacturers are no longer
required to prove product efficacy and/or safety. In layman terms it means they can say
whatever they want about a product, and put in whatever they want. With the maximum
penalty if they get caught being mail fraud. If you ask the supplement industry the
passage was a Godsend. It made available many products that were considered drugs and
were only available by prescription before 1994. Some examples of these products are
DHEA, Melatonin, and Androstenedione. The NCAA now has banned all of those
supplements. A complete list of banned substances has been included to assist you in
proper supplement selection if you choose to do so. It is a buyers beware market when it
comes to supplementation. Every time you buy a supplement you risk the chance that
one of the ingredients is found on the leagues prohibited substance list. Remember you
dont know what is exactly in those supplements. Penalties can range from fines and
suspension to being banned from a sport you love. As collegiate athletes you must be
cognizant of the rules you must follow.

Potential Health Risk
The potential health risks are as countless as are the number of different kinds of
supplements. Each different supplement has their own potential side effect(s) that
corresponds. An example of some side effects in common supplements are:
Thermogenic supplementation (Ephedrine, Caffeine, Aspirin, etc.) can lead to heart
palpations, heart attacks, strokes, and psychosis. Gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) can
cause seizures, comas, respiratory arrest, and death especially when used with alcohol.
Lastly, Creatine can lead to muscle cramping, muscle strains, and dehydration.
For athletes most of the side effects are overkill. With proper nutrition and
regular exercise most likely they will not to occur. That is not to say that they wont.
With little research done on potential side effects, and most concentrated on potential
performance enhancement capabilities those who elect to take the risk are submitting
themselves as human guinea pigs.

Guidelines for Supplement Use
Most of you have taken supplements at one point or another. Maybe your high
school even offered them to you. The objective of this memorandum is not to stop your
supplementation, but rather ensure you are following mandated guidelines. When using
dietary supplements you must follow a few guidelines. They are:
x Make sure none of the ingredients listed on the dietary supplement are banned
by the NCAA.
x Do research on the product as to its potential side effects.
x Follow the recommended dosage as listed by the dietary supplement
manufacturer.
x The adage more is better is false. Taking in more of a supplement does not
magnify its effect. What it essentially does is make your kidneys and liver
work harder and excrete the excess as very expensive urine.
x Increase your water intake. Most protein supplements cause excess build up
of urea which takes water from muscles to make urine. Refer to the hydration
section to follow proper hydration guidelines.
x Increase you fiber intake. Increased fiber intake regulates your system
lessening the time toxins spend in your body decreasing the risk of colon
cancer.
x Dont use a dietary supplement in place of food. The definition of the word
supplement is an addition to, a sequel, an extension. The definition is not in
place of.

Dietary supplements are not more effective than the food you eat. Most are
simply a derivative of food. Therefore before considering taking a supplement first
analyze your nutritional habits. The following is a self-test you should give yourself
before taking a dietary supplement:

Can You Pass The Test?
Before taking any supplement, ask yourself the following questions:

1. Do you eat something for breakfast seven days a week? Yes No Sometimes
2. Do you eat at least three meals a day?
3. Do you monitor the number of calories you consume?
4. Do you restrict your intake of fat cal. to 25% of your diet?
5. Do 60% of your calories come from carbohydrates?
6. Do you eat from all food groups?
7 Do you eat three to five servings of fruit a day?
8. Do you eat at least one vegetable daily?
9. Do you consume a well-balanced pre-game and post-game
meal?

10. Do you drink two quarts of water a day above and
beyond what you perspire?

Total

If you cannot answer yes to each of the questions listed above, why take a
supplement? Dont expect supplements to replace the need for a daily balanced diet.
Refer to the corresponding nutrition plan based on your weight as a sample of a daily
balanced diet. Be responsible if you choose to use a supplement. That means choosing
supplements not on the NCAA prohibited substance list, being aware of potential side
effects, and following recommended guidelines only when it is in addition to a daily
balanced diet.
NCAA Banned-Drug Classes
2006-2007
The NCAA list of banned-drug classes is subject to change by
the NCAA Executive Committee. Contact NCAA education services
or www.ncaa.org/health-safety for the current list. The term related
compounds comprises substances that are included in the class by
their pharmacological action and/or chemical structure. No
substance belonging to the prohibited class may be used,
regardless of whether it is specifically listed as an example.
Many nutritional/dietary supplements contain NCAA banned
substances. In addition, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) does not strictly regulate the supplement industry; therefore
purity and safety of nutritional dietary supplements cannot be
guaranteed. Impure supplements may lead to a positive NCAA drug
test. The use of supplements is at the student-athletes own risk.
Student-athletes should contact their institutions team physician or
athletic trainer for further information.

31.2.3.4.1 Drugs and Procedures
Subject to Restrictions.
The use of the following drugs and/or procedures is subject
to certain restrictions and may or may not be permissible,
depending on limitations expressed in these guidelines
and/or quantities of these substances used:
(Revised: 8/15/89)

(a) Blood Doping. The practice of blood doping (the
intravenous injection of whole blood, packed red
blood cells or blood substitutes) is prohibited, and any evidence
confirming use will be cause for action consistent with that taken for a
positive drug test. (Revised: 8/15/89, 5/4/92)

(b) Local Anesthetics. The Executive Committee will permit the
limited use of local anesthetics under the following conditions:
(1) That procaine, xylocaine, carbocaine or any other local anesthetic
may be used, but not cocaine; (Revised: 12/9/91, 5/6/93)
(2) That only local or topical injections can be used (i.e., intravenous
injections are not permitted); and
(3) That use is medically justified only when permitting the athlete to
continue the competition without potential risk to his or her health.

(c) Manipulation of Urine Samples. The Executive Committee bans
the use of substances and methods that alter the integrity and/or
validity of urine samples provided during NCAA drug testing.
Examples of banned methods are catheterization, urine substitution
and/or tampering or modification of renal excretion by the use of
diuretics, probenecid, bromantan or related compounds, and
epitestosterone administration. (Revised: 8/15/89, 6/17/92, 7/22/97)

(d) Beta 2 Agonists. The use of beta 2 agonists is permitted
by inhalation only. (Adopted: 8/13/93)

(e) Additional Analysis. Drug screening for select nonbanned
substances may be conducted for nonpunitive purposes. (Revised:
8/15/89)

Hydration

Water is a very vital component to nutrition. Water plays a major role in many of
the biochemical reactions that occur in the body. It is responsible for: splitting
molecules, storage of carbohydrates, transportation of glucose and metabolic byproducts
in blood, excretion of metabolic waste products through urine, and the release of heat
(thermo-regulation) through sweat. Without adequate water consumption theses
processes can be inhibited and lead to a decrease in performance.

Medical Conditions
Dehydration is defined in the Webster dictionary as to deprive of or lose water.
Exercise in the heat or the cold results in water/weight loss. It has been stated that a 3 %
weight loss leads to impaired performance; a 5% loss can result in some signs of heat
exhaustion; a 7 % loss may produce hallucinations and put the individual in the danger
zone for a possible heat stroke. Proper hydration will eliminate the risk of dehydration,
heat exhaustion, or a heat stroke.

Guidelines
Thirst and dehydration do not correspond to one another. Being thirsty is often
the response of already being dehydrated. Recommended daily intake of water without
exercise is to take in a minimum of eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day. For athletes this
is not enough water to stay hydrated and perform at peak performance. There are two
common approaches to monitoring hydration levels: Weight and Urine. First, most
athletes lose between one and three pounds of fluid from sweat per hour. To properly
monitor weight loss you should weigh yourself before and after practice/workouts. For
every pound of weight you lost it should be replaced by two cups of water or sports drink
(ex. Gatorade). This doesnt mean the consumption is post practice/workout. You must
start the process before, during, and after the practice/ workout. Continue to drink water
or a sports drink regularly until the weight has been gained.

Another way to monitor hydration levels is the color or quantity of urine. Proper
hydration is usually associated with clear urine with reasonable amount of volume.
Although monitoring urine can be an accurate method of monitoring hydration in a
laboratory it is less efficient for our purposes and should be used a secondary means.
There are several factors that can cause a lack of clarity or volume that are unassociated
with hydration. An example would be the use of dietary supplements; they tend to
produce dark urine.

Through your years on the field at some point you have probably come across an
athlete that has suffered from either severe dehydration or heat exhaustion. Those
athletes did not suffer from those conditions because they were not in shape or not good
enough athletes, but rather a lack of proper hydration. It is your responsibility to
yourself, your family, and the University of South Florida to keep yourself properly
hydrated so that it doesnt happen to you. The above guideline will assist you in
monitoring your hydration levels. Contact myself or a member of the athletic
training/medical staff if you have any questions.
