What is proper nose tackle training?

Answer by  Brett (7986)

First off, you have to be extremely large to play nose tackle (especially weight and low to the ground with a very low center of gravity). If you possess these traits, then I would practice upper and lower body strength, and quickness off the ball (along with your tackling ability).

You need to be explosive off the line. Do deadlifts, olympic lifts, squats to improve leg strenght. Also practice throwing medicine balls quickly to improve hand and arm speed.
