best way to cut 30-50 lbs in 30-60 days?? football player...need help!!!

[MANOWAR]

Silly me... I thought DNP was a diet nutrition plan.

Hah

Your lifts are going to be important when you are going to camps. If you are losing strength then I'd back off of losing weight. I'd concentrate on running the 40 and adding some weight to your lifts. Crash dieting now will only make you weaker and slower. They don't care what you look like or what your body fat % is, they care how you perform.

Good advice.

 

[GonnaBeAGearHead]

My advice is just to get your diet in check. Short term weight loss usually only lasts short term. Changing your diet (permanently) and running hard and hustling every play during camp will help you lose more fat than anything else. It will take longer, but hard work and determination will be your best bet. You can also transfer to a bigger school next year. Its not the end of the world to start out somewhere small. Basketball players do it ALL THE TIME.

the only peroblem i can see with you loosing such a large amount of weight is the state your body is in by the time of your camp, you will have a huge drop in strength and will be very lathargic, surly these people are looking for potential and not pro's they are quite aware that they can speed up a big guy by making him drop a few pounds, they would rather see you their at the best form then a guy who is like lightning but without a ounce of tallent. dont kill yourself trying to drop such a huge amount, even dropping 10-15lb will make a huge difference in your speed. just my 2 cents

I agree here and plus Lipo takes a pretty long time to recover form so dont do that. Anyways if your really 6'6" 360 and not FAT and have talent you shouldnt even be worrying about what college to go to Id think youd have a D1 full ride already. IM guessing your not in as good of shape as you say you are. Just my opinion

Why wouldn't I worry about what college to go to? That type of decision isn't something you take lightly. Yes, I was too heavy at that point but that doesn't mean I don't have offers.

At this point I'm 330 and have decided to go to Maryland in January 2007 or not play football altogether. Still losing weight.

Pretty much every athlete has the potential to get in better shape.

Bro I'm a college football player.. Scouts from major programs don't worry so much about weight as long as you have good skills, speed etc. As long as you have those, they know how to pack on, or in your case, take off the weight.

Hire a good speed trainer in your area and get working w/ him w the time you have left. Make sure you ask his/her/their clients what they think about them. They tend to be pretty expensive, but they will pay of later, trust me.

Don't take any of that shit, you don't need it, it will only mess you up at this stage of the game. Drop what you can w/ your trainer and your scouts will be able to see through the extra 20 or so lbs.

Hope that helps.

i have experienced a few of our players who were scouted, and if they want you they will make you the way theywant you, as above they wil over look flawws tht they hre trainers to deal with, your man mountain that cant be trained or taught making you lose some lbs they can do, we hd a kid at 185 recruited, they saw what they like he is now 210 ripped and natural and playing free safety in the nfl. your proformance is what they want to se, your smarts and game situation knowledge how fast youlearn plays can you study tape, and if they get you to camp can you be beat up emotionally without quiting, be prepared to beyelled and griled, all tests to see what you got. i know many pro athletes and they will all tell yout he same

How come you're skipping a semester?

How come you're skipping a semester?

I wanted to take some time to do some things I've never done before I have 4-5 years of not being able to travel or have time to myself.

Also I am trying to decide if I want to play at all. If I loved football it would be one thing but I look at it for what I can gain. The prospect of making money is nice but not being able to walk at 50 is not.

Are you that good that you can have a professional career in football and make a living on it?

Also, what do you really want to do?

Alot of the coaches I've talked to said that with my potential and skill that I could make a good living through football.

I'm not sure yet on what I want to do and thats another reason for the delay in starting college football.
