Penn State Football Weight Training

State College Hotels-Penn State Football Weight Training

I grew up within a 30 minute driving distance of State College, PA, the home of the Penn State Nittany Lions football program and I have heard very little to nothing about their strength program through the years. Penn State football is primarily known for being “Linbacker U” and they have also turned out some great tailbacks over the years. I have also heard that Penn State football players are known around the NFL as players that show up all ready men and that you don’t have to hold their hands through the rookie professional process. I have heard, mant times,  how awesome other teams strength programs are such as Wisconson, Forida and USC, so I just assumed that the weight training on campus for the football team was average at best. The Nittany Lions are not really known for putting over powering players on the field like some of the above mentioned teams.

Well, I am glad to say that my knowledge has since been expanded and the strength training here in State College is just fine. I found this video on you tube and it just blew me away. I am not saying that I all ways thought that PSU players were weak or somehow under strength, I just didn’t know how terrific their weight training was and is for the football team. I should have known better because the one truth that I do know about football in “Happy Valley” is that little is left to chance and the resources for the program are virtually limitless. I didn’t know how respected the strength program is among ex-players but also with many Profession teams in the NFL. So, be my guessed and check out this video and I think that you will be very surprised and excited to see that Penn State Football is in fine hands and I will be looking to see J.T. around the State College area and tell him that he is doing a great job!
