Increase Sacks, Tackles, and Picks

The Myosource Kinetic Bands training will build a linebacker’s strength, endurance, flexibility, mobility, and agility. Linebackers use the bands to develop the fast twitch muscles needed to get more tackles by shutting down a running back, motivating a defense, and defending tight ends successfully.

Football linebackers have to play man, ball, or zone at various times. Since linebackers are relied upon to make a lot of tackles and other big plays they have to be physically strong and mentally tough.

A linebacker’s speed is critical for playing the position successfully. Linebackers need fast twitch muscle fibers to increase their speed so that the muscles contract quicker. Linebackers who increase their speed increase their lateral movements, get around the field faster, and prevent the offense from gaining yards or scoring touchdowns. Football linebackers have to condition their muscles to react and contract to develop muscle memory. Players with muscle memory will develop muscle reactions that come naturally and automatic. The Myosource Kinetic Bands allow football players to develop quick muscle twitch fibers through their normal warm ups, stretches, and practices. The more movements linebackers perform in the Myosource Kinetic Bands, the more resistance they apply in training their muscles to react faster. 

Middle Linebacker

The middle linebacker is considered the defensive quarterback because he takes the plays to the rest of the defense. Football middle linebackers are assigned the job of stopping running backs from coming through the middle and must also cover any football receivers in their area. It essential the player has a strong lower body, core, and upper body. A great drill for a football middle linebacker is to set up several cones in a straight line and have the player put on the Myosource Kinetic Bands. First they will do side to side runs around the cones, followed by side shuffles. This drill is to build speed and great lateral footwork while maintaining balance and stability.

Outside Linebacker

The outside linebackers must be able to handle the offensive tight end. Resistance bands training will help the outside linebackers become more balanced and stable while building speed and agility, as well as flexibility and mobility. When an outside linebacker is going after the quarterback he must keep his head up as he approaches. Keeping the head up while coming in hard and low will help a football outside linebacker strip the ball or wrap up to tackle successfully. Leverage plays a key role in the players ability to make a successful play. Outside linebackers have to get up underneath tackles for the greatest possible leverage. Whether a football outside linebacker plays the weak or strong side, they have to have strong and quick muscle twitch fibers which can easily be provided by the Myosource Kinetic Bands.

Get there, be there, and make things happen.

• A football linebacker must be in tip top physical shape. Performing speed drills while utilizing the Myosource Kinetic Bands will help a football linebacker gain advantage over their competition.
• A football linebacker must be mentally stable to analyze and make quick adjustments. They must be good to their body by eating healthy and using resistance bands training to improve their game. Nutrition and resistance bands training will enhance strength and improve balance to make a football linebacker both lean and mean.
• A football linebacker has to be able to get low to the ground to tackle effectively.
