National Association of Athletic Trainers are behind it.

I may be wrong, but I think most local coaches have gone away from two-a-days.

It probably is pretty dangerous in some areas with the heat, kids have died from it like the article said.

If they do go away you will see teams go to the extra long 1 practice with an extender Water break in the middle LOL

I have practiced in both types of workouts. Didn't mind either. My first two years our coach done a very early morning workout with a lunch break and an afternoon practice. The mornings were nice and cool, but after lunch was generally rough. With a coaching change my junior year our workouts changed to evenings only. Started at 4 and went till 9 or 10 generally. Not a huge difference either way.

if coaches run the practices right, theres no reason to get rid of two-a-days.

if players are properly hydrated and watched over, i see no reason to make them stop.

im a fat ass, but i went thru two-a-days and didnt die.
so if i can do it, anyone can lol
