Blocking Pad FAQs with Jeff Kraus: Will it help us? - Youth/High School Coaches
Football Practice Equipment Improves Player Safety and Development
Jeff Kraus, who developed The Colt football blocking pad with arms for use within his own program, discusses how The Colt improves fundamentals in practice, translating into success on gameday.
The #1 question Jeff gets is “Will it make my players better?” The answer is “Yes.” The Colt football blocking pad with arms enhances and improves the fundamentals that players are being drilled on every single day. The Colt helps youth, high school and college football players improve pad level, maintain spatial integrity and be aware of leverage points. The pad trains muscle memory at game speed without wearing down players and at a significantly lowered risk of injury.
Why arms? Jeff Kraus and his fellow coaches found that they simply weren’t getting enough out of their equipment. They needed a blocking pad that was both mobile and simulated realistic player resistance. You never face an opponent who doesn’t move, and you never face an opponent who doesn’t have arms. The Colt isn’t a stroke of genius, it’s simple, logical, and helps make better football players.
Many programs which ordered The Colt ended up re-ordering extras during the season. As position coaches grew to appreciate the value of having a football blocking pad with arms, suddenly every position short of QB needed their own set. Linebackers, running backs, offensive and defensive linemen, even wide receivers and defensive backs, trained smarter and faster using The Colt.
The Colt football blocking pad with arms is the single must-have piece of equipment in your football program.
