Never said anything about his strength, but there's no excuse for him not to be able to do it 25 times.
It means his muscle endurance sucks ass. He's going to get owned by good DEs late in games.
LOL are you fucking serious. He is going to get owned by good DEs late in games because he bench pressed 225 19 times instead of 25?
hahaha seriously dude, please tell me you are joking right now.
Not to mention there is a huge difference between strength, power, and endurance. Bench pressing 225 as many times as you can doesn't mean anything in regards to football, especially the OTackle position for several reasons.
1) Nobody you go up against is 225.
2) Positioning, hip & leg strength mean so much more than bench press.
3) You are never laying on your back on the football field. The entire concept of the bench press translating to on the field strength is ridiculous because you are always on two feet on the field.
4) Some guys can bench press 500 pounds for 1 rep but only bench press 225 20 times. Others can bench press only 400 for 1 rep but can throw 225 up 25+ times. There is a huge difference between power, strength, and endurance. It depends on how you train and none of it translates to the otackle position anyway.
5) I could go on forever, but I'm hoping you get the point.
