I am eluding to some programs that have kid performing as many as 20 sets of horizontal pressing - in one day! Good point Troy – the best program in the world will be bad without good coaching.

But there is no program out there that will be effective and safe with out qualified instructors/ teacher!

I got kids who need to get faster (stronger really) but they are doing inexplicably stupid workouts with poor form at school. Their bodies are too taxed to train with me and since they are more than likely doing the exercises with poor form, they are not getting stronger. What has worked for me recently is suggesting that kids who have to lift at school do their legs with me and do upper body at school. Its not ideal, but better than squatting 225 with awful form at school. Most coaches have said its OK for them to do that as long as they still show up to the school workouts. Mike Kozak Lee,
