SUMMER WORKOUT
PROGRAM
2010 SCHEDULE
Birmingham-Southern College
*SCAC Games
SUMMER MANUAL OVERVIEW
This manual was written so that you have a blueprint for your success as a BSC
Panther. The most important thing for you to do is read it from cover to cover before
beginning and make sure that you ask any questions that you may have. This key to
having a successful 2010 season is to work as hard as possible this Summer. Please
call Coach Ryan Sheppard at 205-226-4897 or email him at rsheppar@bsc.edu for
your questions. All exercises for each section of this program are demonstrated on our
website at www.bscsports.net and look under the “Athletics” drop down menu and click
on “Strength and Conditioning” and click on “BSC Workout Instructional Videos on
Youtube”.
Endurance
The BSC Panther must be relentless competitors and play with toughness for sixty
minutes and WIN THE 4TH QUARTER. To do this we must be in better shape
physically than our opponents. Work as hard as you can for as long as you can and
never quit. Come to workout with an attitude, a purpose, and a goal: TO WIN!
Speed Development
Maximum running speed or sprinting is the ability to run at max or near max speed for 5
to 6 seconds. Not everyone is born with incredible speed. Improvements take a
disciplined effort day after day, week after week, and year after year. Speed of
movement is the primary goal in improving performance. Your speed is very much
dependent on your flexibility and strength work on these areas and the running
workouts will be much more productive. Do the running warm-ups with great technique
to improve your flexibility. Lack of flexibility causes your body to work against itself
instead of being like a well-oiled machine. If you lack flexibility it’s like you driving your
car and never changing the oil, eventually you’re going to damage something.
Agility
Agility defined is the ability to rapidly change directions without loss of speed and/or
coordination. You must be able to “move” and change directions in college football.
Straight-line speed is not very helpful if you can’t change directions. Learn to control
yourself in and out of the drills and always be in control. Agility training is just like speed
development. You must perform each rep at maximum speed, rest, and do it again.
Concentrate on keeping your center of gravity low and change directions as rapidly as
possible.
Flexibility
Generally speaking, most people think of flexibility as a means of “warming up” for an
athletic event or workout. This is very true but flexibility also plays an important role in a
person’s ability to be a good football player. You must be able to “bend” and move
effortlessly on the football field. Flexibility gives you the ability to do this.
2. Refer to the Summer Running Program Calendar for, Speed, Agility, and
Endurance Development. Perform all drills at the distance or duration indicated
every day. Pay attention to the reps and recovery times for each individual drill.
3. Refer to the Weight Training Section of the manual for your weight-training
program. The most important thing you can do is find a place to lift and don’t
waste time getting started. Also refer to the Abdominal Training for the Ab work
at the end of each weight training day.
1. Exercises used to enhance explosive power – Power clean, hang clean, clean
pull, push press, split jerk, hang snatch. The power clean is one of our three
core exercises and it is extremely important to work very hard at perfecting the
technique of this exercise. Speed of movement and timing is the key to success
when performing explosive exercises. We are not just heaving weights while
doing the exercises. Learn to do these exercises with flawless technique before
slapping a bunch of weight on the bar. When doing the explosive exercises,
concentrate on your timing and focus on your explosion from the power position.
Remember to control the weight. Never let the weight control you.
4. Exercise for the abs and lower back – Everyone wants a large muscular upper
body and a big powerful lower body but many refuse to do anything for the
muscles in between. You must train your abs and low back. Do not neglect
these exercises! Train your abs and low back with a passion. Do them at the
end of your workout. We will do some type of ab work every lifting day!
5. Exercises used to develop the neck and traps – We will do neck work every
day we lift. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A NECK MACHINE, DO
MANUAL NECK EVERY DAY! Make sure that you find someone to help you do
this.
Hard work is necessary to develop strength and power. Do not confuse “hard work”
with showing up! It does not take a great deal of time to develop strength and power if
the time spent in the weight room is done with great intensity and effort.
Progressive overload – the second ingredient. You must make the muscles do more
work than the previous workout. Performing more reps and/or lifting more weight will
take care of this.
Sets and Reps – Simply stated sets of 5 reps or less are used to build maximal
strength and power and sets of 6-20 reps are used to build strength endurance and
muscle mass. Follow all of the sets and reps exactly as is laid out and NEVER MISS
REPS! One of the fastest ways to halt your strength development is to become
impatient and use more weight for a given number of reps than you should and end up
not completing all your reps. On the other side of that if you are doing power shrugs
and you are doing sets of 15 reps and you use 225 lbs. and you can complete the set
with ease, then add weight! Push yourself but stay within the guidelines that have been
given to you in this program.
Variety – the third ingredient. The human body strives to reach a constant state of
homeostasis. Weight lifting disrupts the body’s homeostasis. The body’s response to
this disruption is growth (increased strength and/or size). Once growth occurs, a new
disruption must occur in order to insure additional growth. Changing reps, weights, sets
and/or the exercises provide the necessary variety for growth to continue.
Rest – the fourth ingredient. The body gets stronger and faster when it recovers from
work, not during work. There are several ways to insure proper growth and
improvements in the weight room. Make sure you eat a diet high in quality protein (1
gram per pound of bodyweight per day), sleep at least 8 hours every night and drink a
gallon of water a day. There will also be days in the program where you will be asked to
lift heavier weights and there will be days where you are asked to lift lighter weights.
Follow these guidelines and constant growth is guaranteed.
Progression
This program works with the progressive overload principle stated earlier. Notice that at
the top right of the weight lifting sheet in the “maxes” box with your power clean, back
squat and bench press, there is a number to the right of “maxes” in parentheses. For
week 1 this number is -20%. What this means is that you are going to subtract 20% of
you max weights for these three exercises and go by those numbers as your max’s for
week 1. For example, if my power clean max is 300 lbs. then for week 1, I will subtract
20% from that and get 240 lbs. This is my power clean max for week 1. I would do this
same procedure with bench press and back squat for week 1. After you have
determined you Back Squat, Power Clean and Bench Press maxes for week 1 you will
need to use the “Core Lifts Calculations” sheet to determine the rest of your lifts
maxes based on these week 1 maxes. Once you have written down all of your maxes
for all of the core lifts on your weight training sheet will need to refer to the
“Progression Charts” for the weights that you will be lifting each set. All you need to
do to determine your weights is to look at right side of the weight training sheets to see
if a lift is using the Heavy, Medium or Light progression. After you determine that look
at whatever your max weight is for that lift and then fill in the weights for each set across
that row. For example, if I want to look at Week 1 on the weight lifting program and
figure out my Hang Clean weights on Monday’s workout. Since my Power Clean1-rep
max is 300 lbs., and -20% of that is 240 lbs. then I know by looking at the core lifts
calculations sheet that my hang clean max is equal to 100% of my power clean max. In
this case the hang clean is using the medium progression chart so I will look at 240 lbs.
on the medium progression and know that my weights are 120, 145, 170, 180 pounds
for 4 sets of 3 reps (Just round to the nearest 5 pounds on the progression charts).
Week 2 is -10% so I would look at 270 lbs. for the medium progression for my hang
clean and I would lift 135, 160, 190, 205 for 4 sets of 3 reps. Week 3, max is written in
parentheses and I will not subtract anything and look at my last max which is 300 lbs.
on the power clean to figure out my hang clean weights. For week 3 my 4 sets of 3 reps
would be 150, 180, 210, 225. If I complete all my reps with good technique then my
new hang clean max is 305 lbs. I will use 305 lbs. for the next 3 weeks as my max for
hang cleans.
So, with any lift this is how you would calculate your weights for the given week and
every third week you will go very heavy and if you complete all your reps on a given
exercise you move your max up 5 pounds. So, for week 4 I would calculate my hang
clean weights by looking at the medium progression chart for 305 lbs. because it is my
new max and then subtract -20% and find that my max for hang cleans that week is 245
lbs. This program will follow this 3 week cycle of -20%, -10%, Max through the
remainder of the Summer program.
This is how you will progress every exercise that has a Heavy, Medium or Light out to
the right side of the weight lifting sheet. You may progress faster on some lifts than
others, just be patient and keep working hard.

Progression Chart (Heavy)
Back Squat 1 Rep Max =
Power Clean 1 Rep Max =
Bench Press 1 Rep Max =
When you calculate the lifts below put the training max out to the right in the parentheses
to keep track of the number.
RDL Max = 100% of Power Clean Max
Front Squat Max = 100% of Power Clean Max
BB Press Max = 70% of Power Clean Max
BB Push Press Max = 100% of Power Clean Max
Hang Snatch Max = 70% of Power Clean Max
Step‐Up Max = 50% of Back Squat Max
Clean Pull Max = 100% of Power Clean Max
Split Jerk Max = 80% of Power Clean Max
Front Lunge = 50% of Back Squat Max
Hang Clean = 100% of Clean Max
BB Power Shrugs = 100% of Clean Max
For example:
If I am trying to calculate my RDL weights for Week 1 and my power clean max is 300 lbs.
I would look at the chart above and see that my RDL Max is 100% of my Clean Max and write my
RDL Max out to the far right in the parentheses. I would then look at the Medium progression chart
for 300 lbs. to fill in my weights for RDL. See below.
