Inside/Outside Zone Blocking Technique
with Ken Wilmesherr, Grossmont College Offensive Line Coach; former Southwestern College (CA) Assistant Coach Zone blocking provides cutback lanes and double teams on the inside zone. This blocking is designed to get vertical movement on the line. Outside zone blocking is designed to stretch the defense allowing for more horizontal push by offensive linemen and seams for running backs. Coach Wilmesherr teaches six steps in the blocking progression for inside and outside zone coverage against the 4-3 and eagle weak defenses. He teaches stance with power producing angles, the five-finger bridge, and toe-to-instep foot position. The four-step progression is taught to insure proper stance. Wilmesherr uses 2 x 4 boards to teach visual landmarks to his linemen. Step progression includes the jab step, drive step, and up field step. Wilmesherr also describes thick and thin calls, which involve communication between linemen regarding the position of linebackers.

Doc Kreis: The Football Coaches Guide to Strength Training - Part I
with Doc Kreis, UCLA Strength & Conditioning CoachDoc Kreis' strength training program is comprised of four components: absolute strength, explosive strength, starting strength and reaction strength. A major belief is to pull from the weakest places when building a program. The first phase of strength training deals specifically with ligaments and tendons. Components of the lifting program include power clean, back squat, three quarter squat, squat on toes, bench press and bench press 16." A key development in squatting is to use the 9-foot bar instead of the 7-foot bar. The bench press is an exercise that depends on form and technique. The width of the feet on the squat and bench must be emphasized. Coach Kreis's running program is another key element to his overall strength training. After the warm-up, the sprint, carioca, shuffle and the back pedal complete the running program. By sharing a linebacker specific program, Kreis details all of the lifts for a typical Week 1, Day 1 workout. 55 minutes. 2007.

Being a Complete Receiver
with Henry Mason, University of Wisconsin Assistant Coach/Receivers Developing "complete" receivers is a Coach Mason specialty! Receiver play on the University of Wisconsin football team is based on several keys: Define each receiver's passing tree, master passing tree vs. all looks, read it-see it-walk it-rep it and fitting drills to fit the offense. In breaking down the receiver positions, Mason states that the split end, the X receiver, should be your best receiver and a precision route runner. The Z receiver, flanker, is the fastest and most physical receiver because of his blocking responsibilities. The Z should lead your team in most yards per catch. The adjuster, R receiver, must be smart, moves to formations, and can run good buddy routes. Mason shares a Segment Meeting Itinerary stressing the importance of players seeing and knowing the proper information and goals for that day. This serves as a key to developing communication between players and coaches. Signature speed dig routes include vertical release, stick at 10 yards, roll to 14 yards and setting the course. The burst corner is a burst release at 45 degrees at 5 yards. Others include the speed corner, big angle, stab, Speed 7 and sword. Blocking - extremely important to this passing attack - is covered in great detail as well! 88 minutes. 2007.
