Below we will be discussing the best lifts for WRs to do in the gym! I hope this is able to help!
These lifts will be emphasizing mainly explosiveness & single leg stability. Which are essential to help WRs with speed & route running.
Upper Body
Bench Press (2 second pause at the bottom- explode up)
Push Jerk (Olympic lift) - it’s like a shoulder press but you explode the weight up and can slightly jump with your feet.
Pull Ups (great for grip strength to help with catching)
Lower Body
Pause Squats (good for explosion- 2 second pause at the bottom)
Heel Elevated Split Squat
Heel Elevated Goblet Squat
Barbell Front Squat
Power Cleans or Hang Cleans
Trap Bar Deadlifts
