Things that will massively improve your game in footy are:
Improving your skills
Knowing how to read the play
Endurance.
Lifting weights will likely help but is secondary to those in afl . Most afl players are weak as piss and still superstar players.
Also. I'm pretty sure I have that book in my bookshelf somewhere.
I used to read Dr. Verkhoshanskys forum when he was still alive.
It's funny how you disagree with over a decade of sports science that suggest performance increase and injury prevention because you play football. Despite the fact you never achieved the elusive double body weight squat and constantly complain of your fucked knees from playing.
Stupid AFL clubs, all this time they've been employing professionals who don't know what they're doing when they could have just come to AUSBB to get the advice they need...
There's too much money in football. One of the issues they have is that they never follow any one person's advice completely or for long enough to find out if it works. There's the strength coach, the power coach, the handball coach, the physiotherapist, the myotherapist, the club board of directors, blah blah blah. One guy says, do this, another says, oh no we can't do that, and... so they sort of half-try everything.Stupid AFL clubs, all this time they've been employing professionals who don't know what they're doing when they could have just come to AUSBB to get the advice they need...
Nice try Oni but you managed to get everything wrong in that post. No surprise really.
I achieved over a double body weight squat and not at a teenage girls bodyweight. Lol
I am also not disagreeing with sports science. I am totally agreeing with it. I said lifting will help performance but not as much as the other things I mentioned, ( skills, ability to read the play and endurance) Which is what anyone involved in training footballers will agree with. Are you seriously disagreeing with that?
You have no idea how my knees got fucked and squats didn't help them. They made them worse. I was even told by two separate specialists that work with afl clubs that my legs were already plenty strong enough for footy and to stop squats to allow my knees to recover but yes you would know better. Lol.
And I'm sill available to give you some tips on your deadlift. You would think you should have a better deadlift than a footballer with fucked knees by now. Lol.
You said before that your best squat was 190kg at 100-110kg without wraps
Nice lies bazza
I'm not sure if your are replying to me. I am saying the clubs have it right or closer to right than any of us, including the great Oni, could do.
No mate I'm on your side here...
I can't believe there are people here that think they could make suggestions to an AFL club...
I've seen pictures of AFL players doing power cleans, box squats and overhead pressing....that's probably all the strength training they need...and I think they know what they're doing without 0nis advice.
Keep digging. Didn't want to address the rest of the stuff you got wrong?
So you know every lift I have done at what bodyweight. Lol.
My 190 was Olympic style squats. Which I will check I may have done at mid 90s bodyweight anyway. Lol.
I have done 200 low bar when I was a heap weaker than the 190 Oly squat but gave up on low bar because while I could lift more with it it didn't feel as beneficial.
Powerlifting height squat. Never attempted maxes with such high squats.
I also managed to get above 60kg BW without gear. Lol. Give up buddy.
Still want help for your dead?
Funny how the guy with the body weight of a "teenage girl" can still squat more than you irrespective of bar position and wraps
deadlifts are going amazing for me right now as well, I'll be well above 600lb by the end of the year and still under 80kg

I also forgot about when you got caught out from posts on another site about your gear use then tried to claim you were framed with someone else impersonating you. Lol.
Then tried to claim that you were using but not at the dosages posted on the other site. Again lol.
You still playing footy Al?
Except that didn't happen. Framed? Lol. There is an account on getbig called oni. Nothing to do with me and I never claimed it was a set-up. I asked LPS if it was him and he said no. Keep up the hating Bazza, I get a massive erection every time you post
I don't play it any more nope. My club is in the rough area of Adelaide and people kept fighting each other with fistfulls of broken glass (srs)
I still train with them once a week though, it helps with the powerlifting
