did they recruit you for track?cause with those pbs geez man

No they didn’t recruit me for track. I am going to a D3 school.

Here is the preseason weight lifting schedule which I’ll probably start in a week or two. How does it look?

Day 1 and 3, Circuits.
Lifts are grouped into sets of three. Go through all three lifts then do the set again. There should be no rest between lifts in a set nor between the first time through the set and the second time though.  So, you’ll do 60 reps in the first set (20 of each exercise) without any rest. Finish one lift then go immediately to the next and start. You can rest between sets while you get your weights in order.  You’ll need to use much lighter weight than you’d normally use.

Set 1
Dumbbell military x10
Lat pull down x10
Dumbbell row x10

Set 2
Speed squats x15
Seated calf raises x20
Power cleans x10

Set 3
Hammer curls x10
Triceps kick back x10
Dumbbell bench x10

seems like you finally got on a decent training schedule.  im anxious to see what youll do.

yeah college is alot more orginized. I have my first 8 week general preperation phase all planned out.  I think I will do alot better than in high school, because in high school I hardly did anything. I am hopeing to get into the high 14’s in the 110HH, but I don’t know how tough it will be becasue I haven’t raced on the college high hurdles yet, only in pratice last year.

I have a question, we are supposed to do weights 2xweek 1 day is upper body the other is lower body. I thought you were supposed to do weights and a tough workout the same day, but most of the weights are just begining conditioning stuff not heavy lifting so does it matter? Also can you do upper body on a recovery day?
