The$Juggernaut$Method:$Football$Training$Manual

The$Juggernaut$Method$and$5/3/1$are$two$of$the$most$popular$training$programs$being$used$in$gyms$across$the$world$today.$Combining$elements$of$these$two$systems$into$a$high/low$sequencing$system$and$the$sprint$training$ideas$of$Charlie$Francis$is$a$phenomenal$way$to$build$powerful,$athletic,$wellBconditioned$football$players.$

In$the$following$manual$we$will$outline$a$16$week$program$designed$to$prepare$football$players$for$the$beginning$of$their$Spring$Practice$Drills.$This$program$will$be$divided$into$4$phases,$organized$around$the$Juggernaut$Method’s$4$Wave$system.$

From$a$bioenergetic$standpoint,$each$phase$will$have$a$different$goal$regarding$the$running$work.$We$will$focus$two$phases$towards$Alactic$capacity$and$two$towards$Alactic$Power,$while$there$will$be$elements$of$aerobic$capacity$development$within$each$phase.$Due$to$the$rather$large$volume$of$sprints,$jumps,$medicine$ball$throws,$and$explosive$pushups$this$program$will$have$the$athlete$performing,$the$lifting$will$be$kept$submaximal$for$the$majority$of$it,$utilizing$only$the$minimum$prescribed$reps$of$The$Juggernaut$Method$and$5/3/1$for$many$of$the$training$sessions$and$relying$upon$the$explosive$work$to$yield$strength$gains.$

Before$beginning$this$program$I$would$encourage$you$to$in$addition$to$testing$your$1rm$in$the$squat,$bench,$military$and$deadlift,$also$measure$your$40$yard$dash,$standing$long$jump$and$standing$triple$jump.$

This$program$would$be$focused$towards$the$development$of$a$big$skill$player$(linebacker,$tight$end,$fullback,$strong$safetyBdepending$on$system),$who$plays$within$or$against$a$noBhuddle$spread$offense.$The$type$of$offense$is$pertinent$to$work/rest$periods$during$alactic$capacity$drills;$if$an$athlete$plays$in$a$normal$pro$style$offense,$rest$periods$would$be$extended.$The$exercise$selection$would$not$be$altered$if$dealing$with$another$position,$except$quarterbacks,$who$require$special$attention$due$to$the$nature$of$throwing.$This$program$assumes$a$relatively$high$level$of$general$physical$preparedness,$such$as$that$of$an$athlete$who$has$been$a$part$of$an$organized$training$program$for$2+$years.$

Before$we$get$into$the$program$a$few$key$aspects$of$the$training$need$to$be$examined...

WarmupsBThough$I$don’t$list$warmups$within$the$program,$they$are$essential$to$perform.$We$basically$have$4$different$warmups$that$we$use$often$with$our$athletes.$General$Warmup,$which$entails$a$series$of$low$amplitude$abdominals$and$joint$mobility$circles,$designed$to$raise$the$athletes$core$temperature$in$a$low$cost$manner$(a$way$that$isn’t$going$to$tire$them$out$for$the$session)$and$improve$range$of$motion$in$all$the$joints$that$will$play$a$role$in$that$days$training.$Power/Speed$Warmup,$which$is$designed$to$prepare$the$athletes$body$for$the$stresses$of$maximal$speed$sprinting$and$jumping,$while$also$improving$their$running$mechanics$through$a$series$of$drills.$Medball$Mobility$Circuit,$which$will$improve$the$athletes$mechanics$in$the$various$throws$by$executing$the$various$motions$of$the$throws$at$a$low$intensity;$the$medball$mobility$circuit$also$is$a$great$builder$of$strength$and$mobility$through$the$shoulder$girdle.$Positional$Power$Speed$warmups$include$two$portions,$a$series$of$single$leg$jumps$and$hops$to$improve$the$single$leg$strength$necessary$when$making$any$change$of$direction,$as$well$as$individual$position$drills$(Get$offs,$backpedals,$W$cut,$scrape,$etc)$performed$in$a$smooth,$rhythmic$manner$at$submaximal$intensity$(75%).$We$perform$the$general$warmup$nearly$every$day,$Power/Speed$Warmup$before$any$sprint$training$sessions,$Medball$Mobility$before$any$session$that$includes$medicine$ball$throws$and$the$Positional$Power$Speed$warmup$prior$to$tempo$run$sessions.$As$you$develop$a$sense$of$what$you$need$to$be$ready$to$perform$your$best$during$a$session,$these$warmups$can$be$modi[ied/reduced/increased$based$on$your$particular$needs.$

Tempo$Runs/Pushups/AbsBTempo$runs$are$the$best$way$to$develop$the$athlete’s$aerobic$capacity.$The$aerobic$capacity$is$the$athlete’s$ability$to$recover$quickly$between$intensive$bouts$of$alactic$work,$in$simpler$terms$it$is$how$well$the$athlete$will$recover$between$plays.$Tempo$runs$are$performed$at$60B75%$of$maximal$speed$and$serve$two$purposes,$to$develop$the$aerobic$capacity$and$to$increase$blood$[low$which$promotes$recovery.$It$is$critical$to$stay$within$the$prescribed$speed$range,$as$faster$than$this$range$(75B90%$is$too$slow$to$develop$maximum$speed)$and$will$also$be$too$stressful$to$promote$recovery.$Slower$than$this$range$(Less$than$60%)$is$too$slow$to$elicit$the$necessary$heart$rates$to$develop$aerobic$capacity.$When$performing$a$tempo$run$workout,$you$will$run$the$prescribed$distance$(ie.$80$yards)$and$immediately$upon$[inishing$perform$either$10$pushups$or$20B30$reps$of$abdominal$work.$Once$these$calisthenics$are$done,$rest$20B45$seconds$after$short$reps$(80$yards)$and$45B90$seconds$after$long$reps$(160$yards),$before$performing$the$next$rep.$Tempo$run$sessions$could$also$be$performed$in$the$pool,$instead$of$running$for$distance$though,$run$for$time$in$place$in$the$shallow$end.$Perform$high$knees$for$30B40$seconds,$hop$out$and$perform$your$calisthenic.

A$tempo$run$session$should$having$you$huf[ing$and$puf[ing$while$performing$it,$but$nearly$immediately$upon$completion$you$should$feel$refreshed.$

Once$the$athlete’s$aerobic$capacity$begins$to$improve$those$rest$periods$can$be$shortened$(we$have$athletes$who$can$effectively$perform$tempo$sessions$with$10B20$seconds$of$rest$between$reps).$$It$is$critical$when$performing$tempo$work$to$maintain$the$same$pace$throughout$the$entire$session,$so$if$your$[irst$80$yard$run$is$done$in$12$seconds,$your$[inal$80$yard$run$needs$to$be$done$in$12B13$seconds,$take$the$appropriate$rest$periods$to$allow$this$to$happen.$Between$sets,$take$2B3$minutes$rest,$but$continue$walking$to$promote$blood$[low$and$speed$recovery.$The$5s$and$3s$Waves$call$for$Positional$Tempos.$Positional$tempos$are$still$done$at$60B75%$intensity,$but$now$the$movements$are$split$up$between$forward$running,$backward$running,$backpedalling,$lateral$shuf[ling$and$sideways$running.$Vary$the$movements$you$use$and$transition$from$one$to$the$next$every$20$yards$or$so.$

As$with$the$sprints,$the$different$positional$groups$will$require$different$distances$for$their$tempo$runs.$Down$Line$players$should$run$60$and$120$yard$reps,$while$Small$Skill$should$utilize$100$and$200$yards.$

Explosive$Medball$ThrowsBExplosive$medball$throws,$like$sprints,$need$to$be$performed$with$full$recovery$and$maximum$intensity.$All$of$the$throws$will$develop$the$athlete’s$rate$of$force$development$and$total$body$power.$Pick$a$ball$weight$that$will$allow$you$to$throw$10B15$yards,$once$you$have$adequate$technique.$Resting$15B30$seconds$between$throws,$should$be$suf[icient$for$recovery.$

During$the$3s$Wave,$the$athletes$will$begin$to$only$perform$the$throws$with$the$highest$dynamic$correspondence$to$their$positional$maneuvers.$$Line$players$should$perform$only$Diving$and$Scoop$variations,$while$Small$Skill$players$can$perform$Diving$and$Overhead$Backwards.$

Explosive$PushupsBPushups$onto$the$box,$Drop$Pushups$and$Rebound$Pushups$are$all$great$builders$of$explosive$upper$body$power$and$reactive/elastic$abilities.$Box$height$used$will$vary$between$athletes$but$should$fall$in$the$range$of$6$to$24”.$Make$sure$that$the$abs$and$hips$are$[lexed$throughout$the$movement,$to$minimize$any$movement$of$the$hips/butt.

Extensive$Medball$ThrowsBExtensive$throws$are$used$to$develop$aerobic$capacity,$as$well$as$building$elastic/reactive$abilities.$These$throws$should$be$done$in$a$rebound$fashion$while$standing$close$to$a$wall.$Perform$20$Overhead$Forward,$20$Chest$Passes,$20$Rotational$(10$each$side),$20$Scoop,$and$20$Shot$(10$each$hand)$to$complete$a$set$of$100$throws,$then$take$a$short$rest$or$perform$abdominal$work,$before$beginning$the$next$round.$Repeat$til$the$day’s$throws$are$complete.$
