Whitney Young HS Football Strength & Speed

We anticipated the day our 110 lb dumbbells would not be enough weight for @BabanifesimiO Shoutout to Twitter S&C (can’t remember who specifically) for giving us this idea! #RecruitWY // #PhinsUp @BabanifesimiO | @dolphinfootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY

Dolphins had some fun trying out a semi blind tracking drill during our COD/Agility day yesterday working man and ball defense #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @WY_joseph_Gray | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY | @coach_eddy_wy

Torn knee ligament at a powerlifting meet last spring didn’t stop Babanifesimi from being All-City OL last fall for 2nd straight year. Now he’s pushing for 7 reps on his last set of 3x5 at 455 #RecruitWY // #PhinsUp @BabanifesimiO | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY – at Chicago, IL

Dolphins were back at it for day 1 of our strength and speed program. Loved how our Young people handled these slalom hops into reactive sprints #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @wyhs | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY | @coach_eddy_wy

Dolphins had a great workout that included reactive sprints with a sway or plyometric start, our first TBDL session of the year, and our introduction of our Nordic curl progression #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY | @coach_eddy_wy – at Chicago, IL

Young people attacked our contact prep and pistol squat intro. Excited to see them improve as we move forward for the rest of the semester #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @BabanifesimiO | @LukeYolich2007 | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY | @coach_eddy_wy

Excited about the way our Young people handled our first turn sprints of the offseason. Lot of room to improve on our processing sprints but love how our athletes embraced competing! #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @wyhs | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY

Young people showed a ton of improvement in just day 2 of our contact prep. Some resisted backwards bear crawls, partner extended crawls, and forward and backward somersaults #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY – at Chicago, IL

Introduced our Young people to these partner chase turn sprints and really like how they handled them and finished competitively #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY | @wyhs – at Chicago, IL

These curved sprints have become a staple of our max velo days. The race starts on the outside partner’s first move #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY | @BabanifesimiO | @Milesbaarsma | @drmendez2021

First saw these when @ADRCoachDev shared them from a soccer team. This was our 1st time doing them and a ton of fun. Need to work on our technique a bit #RecruitWY // #PhinsUp @BabanifesimiO | @drmendez2021 | @Milesbaarsma | @dolphinfootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY – at Chicago, IL

Love the way our Young people are competing as we intro tracking. Lead partner starts at whatever pace they want and takes off either direction while chaser tries to make a tag #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @JaysenP52 | @WoodsMarkius | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY

Love the way our Young people have progressed with these band assisted Nordic curls. They also allow us to easily track the amount of assistance and progress it throughout the semester #PhinsUp // #RecruitWY @LukeYolich2007 | @DolphinFootball | @CoachFinger | @RecruitWY – at Chicago, IL
