Called them Circuits at bootcamp. 3 stations 15 yard apart, after practice while Still in pads, I think one station was burpees, one was crunches (the easiest one), one was push-ups


A couple times we practiced twice during the day and they told us we worked our arse off so no circuits today. Then they would put us to sleep and wake us up at 3:30 in the morning and make us do those circuits they said we got off from doing. We'd be done by about in time to start the morning practice


We started getting smart and would pick a night where we would wake the coaches up instead of the other way around and start kicking them out of there beds, which pissed them off but they were tired so they ended up calling practice early

Running/conditioning after practice. Most of it was just some sprints, but the two that stood out were pretty awful.

Coach called one the Buffalo. Line up with your position set. WR/DB went first, then it was RB/MLB, QB/Safety, TE/OLB, and finally OL/DL. Start at the goal line, and sprint 10 yard then jog the other 90. As soon as the last guy in the group was 10 yards past the sprint point, coach blows the whistle and the next line goes. Then start lining up again. As soon as the last of the OL/DL passed the other goal line, the WR/DB group would sprint 20 then jog the other 80. You continued this until you were eventually sprinting the entire field. I was good up until 60. 70-80-90-100 about killed us all. The worst part was if anyone was loafing on their jogging, the whole team had to run that section again. So we would get to 80 and some lineman would be dragging the last 20 yards of his sprint and coach would yell at us to do that part again.

The other they just called the gridiron. You ran every line on the field. Start at the goal line in the corner, and you sprint to the second hashmark and jog to the other sideline. Jog up 5 to the next yard marker and then sprint to the second hashmark. You ended up doing 22 sprints in all with just the last 1/3 of the field and the next 5 yards up between.

We hated circuits too, 6-7 stations, 5 minutes each in groups of 10, no breaks in between, no water. Everything from flipping tires, to plyometrics, to sit-ups with medicine balls, etc.
