Do anyone know a good workout to do to be in the best shape for football. Im talking about everything from weights to running to protein...

I'm very interested in any replies to this thread as well..

Damn, you're 36 years old and planning on a football career..? Lil' late for that, don't you think..?

Im only 16 and still fresh

Get this...Ive beem working out hard for 2 weeks and my numbers are:
Bench- 225
Squat- 275
40yds- 4.78
Deadlift- 310
Dips- 31

Those numbers are ok but, it is nothin compared to Noel Divine...
Did I mention that I am only 150 lbs...

Add 30 minutes of Calisthenics to your regime...Do it everyday, in some variation...

You won't get there just lifting, in fact, not every great player lifts weights...I wouldn't recommend working out with weights more than 3 days a week, doing calisthenics everyday will help you out in the long run...In sports, especially those like football, you will find that strength is abundant...The problem, is stamina...

It is like boxing...Everybody in shape, isn't in boxing shape...The avergage very in shape football player could probably not go 4 rounds...Calisthenics help you sustain pure muscle mass, and initiate growth...If you work out all the time, you will get mucle, but may not get better/stronger...

And before you ask, Calisthenics are simple exercises that you should be doing anyway to wark up for lift sessions...Stretching properly (bending not breaking) , relaxing your body, building focus...Preparing mentally is the most important thing, size and strength can only get you so far...

If I had to rank: Mentality > Agility > Stamina > Power

What kind should I do..?

Lets test that dedication, and see if you are willing to educate yourself...
