    STRENGTH & CONDITIONING POWER BEHIND THE PROGRAM MIKE GERBER Strength & Conditioning Coach UNLV football’s strength and conditioning program is now under the guid- ance of veteran coach Mike Gerber. “The goal of the UNLV football strength & conditioning program is to maxi- mize those physical traits that excellence in the sport demands,” Gerber said. “Football is a game of relatively short but extremely intense efforts requiring great power production. Because of this, the core of the program is made up of the Olympic Weightlifting movements. Run speed develop- ment and conditioning also follow the dictates of the game’s physical demands. Emphasis is placed especially on initial acceleration because most sprinting in football is relatively short. Conditioning is made up largely of position-specific movement patterns done in series of all-out effort with the quantity of work similar to a long football drive.” The Ernie Becker Sr. Strength and Conditioning Center’s 8,500- square-foot deck features free weights, power racks and Olympian The covered agility drills area platforms.

    STRENGTH & CONDITIONING POWER BEHIND THE PROGRAM MIKE GERBER Strength & Conditioning Coach UNLV football’s strength and conditioning program is now under the guidance of veteran coach Mike Gerber. “The goal of the UNLV football strength & conditioning program is to maximize those physical traits that excellence in the sport demands,” Gerber said. “Football is a game of relatively short but extremely intense efforts requiring great power production. Because of this, the core of the program is made up of the Olympic Weightlifting movements. Run speed development and con- ditioning also follow the dictates of the game’s physical demands. Em- phasis is placed especially on initial acceleration because most sprint- ing in football is relatively short. Conditioning is made up largely of position-specific movement patterns done in series of all-out effort with the quantity of work similar to a long football drive.” The Ernie Becker Sr. Strength and Conditioning Cen- ter’s 8,500-square-foot deck fea- tures all-new free weights, power racks and Olympian platforms. The The covered agility drills area features 1,200-square-foot balcony level offers stretching and cardio areas.
