9/14/26 – Coach Vanderah
Now that we are back in the rhythm of the school year, we want to remind all of our athletes of our offseason workout times.
Mondays: Lifting 3:30-4:30, we will do the finisher with Coach V in lieu of a workout
Thursdays: Lifting and Workout 3:30-4:45
If you are in-season for another Dowling Catholic sport, don’t worry about coming to these times.
If you aren’t in-season for another DCHS sport, you should be at these times. These aren’t required but are a great opportunity to get stronger, become more resilient, and build chemistry with teammates (and coaches). You may be able to work on the strength and resiliency with a personal trainer, but you can’t replace the social aspects of a team doing workouts on your own (or with kids from other schools).
Our track team has hard workers on it but over the years has earned a reputation for rushing lifting and/or skipping parts of lifting trying to rush out to the track for workouts. Put in the work in the weightroom! If you are skipping parts of your lifts, those PRs in the spring will be harder to accomplish.
If you have questions, reach out to a coach.
