What does not belong in a football workout in your opinion...most likely?:
Sprinting
Jumping
Swimming
Crawling
Cheerleading
Rowing
Skipping
Throwing
Kicking
Standing
Sitting
Sweating
Trampolining
Gymnastics
Yoga
Pilates
Spin
Tabata
Zumba
Break dancing
Powerlifting
Actually, in some form all of these physical activities are found in football. Zumba? Yes. Victor Cruz of the New York Giants even salsa dances every time he scores a touchdown. Break dancing?... Have you seen the end zone celebrations? Training for football is not literal. Does an athlete literally just stand as part of his/her training? No. However, part of a workout may call for the athlete to hop from one leg to the other and stick the landing, which is considered standing. Yoga? No one has to hum a mantra, but stretching has its yoga poses and semi yoga poses.
