    Great tips! I wish this existed back when I played. I agree on how much the body of a lineman has changed. Versatility and athleticism go so far now. I love that lineman are being shed light on, thank you!
    One suggestion/question, would you consider creating gear in youth sizes? My son plays O-Line and D-Line and loves what you’ve released.

    "Watch the Linemen, not the Ball."

    And would add to that, also watch some Sumo, there's a lot of it on CZcams if you search and some of the skills are very transferable.

    8:15 i think the best thing is if you can get a personal trainer who was/is a football player. I got one who played Running back at my hometown club, his career ended because of a ankle injury. Even though i'm a Lineman, the explosiveness for rb's is similar and he knows alot about football. Plus if your trainer was a football player he knows how to regenerate and how to avoid mistakes

I may not be the best in the state or nation whatever , but the team we have can’t rely on size and power , so we were taught to trust our technique . 🤙🏽

    This comment is nothing for clout or anything, but I just wanna put this out there. When I started playing football in middle school I always wanted to play Receiver and Running back. Starting in my freshmen year I’m playing Linebacker and it’s the most exciting thing. Guys, don’t fight the coaches when you play a position you don’t want to. I feel like defensive players don’t get enough love like Receivers and other skill positions get. But anyways I’m starting a CZcams channel called “Linebacker PRIME” and this is not I repeat NOT a self advertisement, but I want to turn my new channel into a channel to help new football players come into the sport. Mate, Lineman Football has helped me through my entire journey and I hope to be a D1 Backer one day ☝️💪 🙏 Stay strong athletes, and keep balling. 🏈

      @@jakehoxie235 yeah maybe a few spare dumbell workouts here or there but really I think at your age bodyweight exercise is just as beneficial as dumbbells w no chance of injury

    Why are you comparing our Oline boys to LeBron? Stick with football references pls. I'm a Footballer Momma here for tips for my Sophomore Oline, tackle/Center(as our new Center isn't getting his snaps or something) and Dline guard. He's come even further after earning his letter last year and he is the opitomy of COACHABLE. They love him at 6'2, 260ish played since 2nd grade always winning trophies and awards. I'm so proud of him, everyone just pushes on him, expecting more and more, having him cover and take on whatever Oline position who's struggling until their ready to go back, it's ALOT, but he's actually up for it! Gr8 Kiddo!
