Lineman Special Strength
Lineman Special Strength Defined:
The generation of an asymmetrical quantity (ie. magnitude) of force and the discharge of said force at optimal velocity (ie. speed + direction) to block external resistance.
Lineman Special Strength [LSS] is what the lineman generates to block.
Lineman Special Strength University
Olin Kreutz & John Quint
Former Chicago Bears Pro-Bowl offensive lineman Olin Kreutz and neuromuscular therapist/strength coach John Quint have synthesized their specialized knowledge together to define the blocking of external resistance as a Lineman Special Strength [LSS]. Defining blocking as special strength is what enabled Olin and John to design and implement a specific strength training system with the sole aim of physically developing the lineman to possess the requisite strengths required to repeatedly block.
