I know running after a workout is detrimental to bodybuilding, but does this apply to sports (strength) too? I assume so, but hadn't seen anything about it.
The reason I ask is my coach felt the need to start doing "plyometrics" (it's more just plain running) every day when the weight room closes.

I dunno, it seems logical that it wouldn't help. Obviously it doesn't affect a lot of people, but still...anyone know?

What sport are you playing? Remember lifting is not the be all end all of sports training. In highschool, speed is very important and is a valued commodity. I don't know what your program is, but generally you should do any sprint/plyo work before the weightroom. Also, I doubt it'll effect you negatively unless you're trying to get fat or have the worst program ever.

Well, unless you're a lineman (maybe even then) you need speed, so I don't think having you run is a bad idea.Originally posted by Odan

Alright, then I have another question. If I'm taking creatine/protein shakes postworkout, should I drink them and then run, or wait untill after I'm done running?

running
well actually after a long day of running and working out the lactic acid is built up into the muscles...
the final run at the end of the workout/drill work favors the body by helping flush the lactic acid buildup away and continuing the body's recovery cycle in rebuilding what was broken down by the intensity within the workset of the day...You only get what you put in

I am training for football to, so take my advice run after workouts but wait about 4 hrs or plus later to do so.

Would it be better to run around 4 PM assuming I worked out in the morning 7 or 8ish? I'm trying to figure out my schedule for summer, and I know I need to run more then I have been. I don't think this would be overtraining? I mean, I'd refuel and possibly nap in between the two.

That isn't a bad idea at all as you could be pretty fresh for both workouts.Originally posted by Odan

I have college workout programs from Univ of Nebraska and NC state where the trainer that wrote the program has helped 40 kids from his program into the NFL in 12 years or suttin. THey both have sprinting type workouts and have you play dogeball or two hand touch after workin out depending on the position you play.
