If so try them, but at least try and eat healthy and work both strength, agility and endurance. Does your team have any type of strength and conditioning coaches??

I'm going into my senior season and I wished I lifted more before last season. other than that, i would do things like cone drills and other agility drills, then play some catch since you play tight end. if you can, try to hook up with the QB and run some routes, like I play reciever and my best friend is QB so I'm going to try to get out with him a bit over the offseason. im just a player though who doesnt know a whole lot about this kind of thing, talk to your coach or like someone at a gym if your really serious about this, and then follow their idea. hope this helps me personally, I’m working out mon- fri, but I isolate specific muscle areas, like monday I do legs, tuesday back, wed shoulders, thurs chest, and fri arms or something to that effect, that way I dont overwork myself. and I think you should do at least a light run every day, including those days you lift.

Don't lift everyday that is just stupid. Lifting 4 times a week is more than enough. Speed is really important (if you want to play college ball). You should run 3 times a week (sprints). All of your hard work will be worthless unless you eat properly. Lots of protein and drink tons of water. Besides running and lifting you should meet up with your starting QB to work on your hands and your routes. Most of all, enjoy High Shool while it lasts. The memories you make on and off the field will last for ever, so make the most out of them. There is so much that goes into training for football. Don’t lift everyday that is just stupid.
