🏈 Keep Your Football Speed All Season with JAWKU Speed

Why Football Players Lose Speed In-Season

The grind of practices, film study, games, and recovery can chip away at the gains you worked hard for in the off-season. Without consistent testing and targeted drills, your bursts off the line, acceleration, and agility can stall—or even decline.

The solution? Test and train smarter, not just harder with JAWKU Speed.

JAWKU Speed delivers laser-accurate feedback on acceleration, agility, and reaction time, making it the perfect tool to keep your speed sharp and measurable all season long.


Football In-Season Speed Training Templates

Whether you have time for 3–4 speed sessions a week or only 2–3 focused days, JAWKU Speed helps you stay accountable and keep your edge.


🔥 3–4 Day Speed Maintenance Template

Day Focus Drills (Measured with JAWKU Speed)
Monday Explosive Starts 8 × 10-yard sprints with audible start (first-step quickness)
Tuesday Change of Direction 5-10-5 shuttle × 6, 3-Cone Drill × 4
Thursday Acceleration + Power 6 × 20-yard sprints, 3 × 40-yard sprints
Friday Game Simulation Speed Reaction sprints: coach/teammate signals, 6 reps (mix 10-, 20-, 40-yard)

⚡ 2–3 Day Focused Routine

Day Focus Drills (Measured with JAWKU Speed)
Day 1 Speed & Agility 6 × 10-yard bursts, 4 × 40-yard sprints, 6 × 5-10-5 shuttle drills
Day 2 Reactive Speed 8 × reaction sprints with audible start, 5 × 3-Cone Drills, 6 × 60-yard tempos
Day 3 Optional Power/Accel 6 × 20-yard sprints, 3 × 40-yard sprints (track split times with JAWKU)

This setup is perfect for athletes with heavier practice/game schedules who still need measurable speed work.


🗓 Game Day & Off Day Recommendations

  • Game Day: No testing required—your performance is the test. Focus on activation (dynamic warm-up, 2–3 explosive 10-yard sprints) to prime your nervous system.

  • Post-Game / Off Day: Prioritize recovery. Light movement, mobility work, and stretching are ideal. JAWKU Speed can still be used here—run one or two short sprints to check if fatigue is impacting reaction or acceleration.


Why JAWKU Speed Is Built for Football

  • Position-Specific Feedback:

    • Linemen → Test 10-yard bursts for explosiveness.

    • Receivers & DBs → Benchmark 40-yard splits.

    • Linebackers & RBs → Agility drills and shuttle tests.

  • Agility Metrics: Football isn’t just straight-line speed. JAWKU captures every cut, change of direction, and shuttle drill with pro-level precision.

  • Portable Testing: No bulky timing gates—set up anywhere, from the practice field to your backyard.
