The AF Built 12-Week Shield: Complete High School Strength & Speed Curriculum
Build Power. Increase Speed. Protect the Season.
Stop "just lifting" and start training with a system. Designed by a veteran Weights/PE teacher and coach with over 15 years of experience, The Shield Strength System is a comprehensive, 12-week periodized roadmap built specifically for the high school weight room. Whether you are training a championship-caliber Football team, a Wrestling squad, or a 30-student Physical Education class, this curriculum provides the structure you need to develop explosive athletes while prioritizing their "Shield," the physical armor that prevents injury.
Note: Cover athlete on thumbnail is a student who has been working out on the AF Built Year Around Training Manual for Athletes for 3 years (9th-11th). This program is an offshoot of that one, and was developed to also train non-athletes as well.
What’s Included in This Bundle?
12-Week Periodized Master Slide Deck: A fully editable Google Slides presentation (over 50 slides) designed for daily weight room projection. One slide per day for easy visibility in the weight room.
4-Day Strength Split: Scientifically structured blocks focusing on Squat, Bench, Deadlift, and Vertical Power.
5th Day Speed & Agility Cycle: A 12-week rotating speed program that transitions athletes from foundational mechanics to "Game-Speed" reactive agility.
The "Shield" Protocols: Integrated accessory work targeting the neck, core, and posterior chain, essential for contact sports like Football or general injury prevention.
Coach’s Master Instruction PDF: A "Start Here" guide with tips on managing large groups, equipment logistics, and technical cues.
Why Coaches Love "The Shield":
- Built for Large Groups: Specifically designed to keep 30+ students moving. No more standing around or wasted gym time.
- Multi-Sport Ready: These "Iron Roadmaps" are engineered to support athletes across multiple seasons (Football, Basketball, Track) without causing burnout.
- Plug-and-Play Integration: Hosted on Google Slides, you can project the daily workout on a screen or print it for a clipboard in seconds.
- Elite Science, High School Application: We use advanced concepts like Contrast Loading (PAP) and 3-Week Periodization Cycles, but explain them in a way that 15-year-old athletes can master.
The 12-Week Roadmap:
- Phase 1 (Weeks 1-3): The Foundation. Establishing movement quality, core "Shield" stability, and eccentric control.
- Phase 2 (Weeks 4-6): The Build. Increasing volume and structural hypertrophy to prepare the body for heavy loading.
- Phase 3 (Weeks 7-9): The Load. Shifting to higher intensity and maximal strength development.
- Phase 4 (Weeks 10-12): The Conversion. Peaking the nervous system for maximum explosive power and field readiness.
