400 pushups in an hour is a ton. That's 6 - 7pushups every minute. Muscle fatigue is almost guaranteed. I imagine most kids couldn't pull that off.

Team Captain Defends the Coach
quote:
Junior Brady Luff, a captain of the team, spoke with WFAA to defend Harrell and the coaching staff as questions remain about what happened. "Heath football, it’s a brotherhood… these coaches have treated me with so much respect and have treated me like their son," Luff said. Luff said he was at Friday's workout. Luff said Friday's workout "wasn't any different than any workout we've done before, intensity-wise." "Our motto, it’s the number 16. Sixteen ball games to win a championship. We do these workouts and it’s all about discipline. If we get them right, we move on. If not, we do 16 push-ups," the junior said. He said that players weren't forced to do the workouts. "I've heard people say that we didn't have water and that is not true," Luff said. "We have these big jugs full of water. You can go there in between reps and get water whenever you want. No one was deprived of water."
quote:
Luff said he wishes the best for the players who were hospitalized and added that Harrell had been at the hospital to check on them, as well. "[Coach Harrell] would never make us do a workout thinking it was gonna put any of us at risk," Luff said. "I want people to know that Coach Harrell is a great man and he's treated us with nothing but respect. He loves every single one of us," he added.

jesus fricking christ....
look i rail against the old school coaches that just want to make kids puke or think running 110s is good conditioning, but your take is assinine
its 7 pushups a min.
there should be no muscle fatigue. im 40 and can do that no problem
most atheltes, hell every high school aged male should be able to do that. it absolutely is not overkill at all.
productive...maybe, optimal....no, overkill and dangerous....get the frick outta here.
now if he denied water...hang his arse but doesnt sound like that was the case.
now in the end he should have recognized that many of the kids were out of shape and adjusted. forcing rhabdo is 100% not something you should be looking to come close to
but averaging 7 pushups a min is not something crazy. its 100% on the kids and parents for being so out of shape they cant handle that. also with them not taking nutrition and recovery serious

Yea it's a lot. Most people probably can only do at most 50 at a time. If you can do 50 at a time, you can do one set then rest 5 minutes. We have no idea if it was some drill sergeant making them stay in the position the whole time or if the rule was, we want you to get to 400 however in the next 60 minutes.
Also, kids fake pushups all the time
