I'm baffled! If you ask most football strength coaches what their #1 responsibility is they will say injury prevention. Now go watch some of the training compilation videos and tell me why (most - but not all of the time) you see one athlete squatting for a max or max reps with no spotter or at best one guy doing the reach under, meanwhile 10-15 other athletes 8-10 foot back (including coaches) cheering the guy on? THIS is injury prevention? The squats are bad enough but the lack of spotting is outright coaching negligence or plain ignorance. My hats off to all the coaches that have awareness and actually do their jobs. PLEASE keep doing what you do so these other nitwits will follow your lead.-- Dave tate
