Elite offensive line training in Salinas, California
Great linemen aren't born—they're built. Through systematic development of technique, functional strength, and football intelligence, we develop athletes who control the line of scrimmage on every snap.
Footwork, hand placement, and leverage mechanics form the bedrock of dominant line play. We break down every movement into teachable, repeatable components—building muscle memory through thousands of reps until proper technique becomes instinct. From initial stance to finish, every detail matters.
Football power, not bodybuilding. We develop explosive strength that translates directly to the field—drive blocking power, anchor strength, and the functional athleticism needed to dominate in space. Every exercise has a purpose connected to on-field performance.
Finishing blocks, relentless effort, and the discipline to execute when fatigue sets in. We develop linemen who play through the whistle every rep, who embrace contact, and who understand that the trenches are won by the player who refuses to quit. Toughness isn't optional—it's the standard.
Understanding defensive schemes, reading fronts, and making real-time adjustments that separate good linemen from great ones. Our athletes learn to study film, recognize alignment cues, and anticipate the chess match in the trenches before the snap. Intelligence wins in the fourth quarter.
Structured programs for every stage of development. From fundamentals to advanced technique, we meet athletes where they are and push them to the next level.
Building the right habits from day one. Proper stance mechanics, basic footwork patterns, and the fundamentals that will carry through an entire career.
Advanced technique work, strength progression, and film study for athletes preparing to compete at the varsity and collegiate level.
Targeted development for each position along the offensive line. Every position has unique demands—we train the specific skills each requires.
Dedicated strength and conditioning programs designed for linemen. Build the power base during the off-season that translates to in-season dominance.
Combined decades of experience developing linemen who dominate at the point of attack. Two coaches, one standard: excellence.
Coach Velasquez has dedicated his career to the art and science of line play since 2010. His areas of emphasis—footwork, hand placement, leverage, pad level, and football IQ—form the technical backbone of Heavyweight Linemen. He develops athletes through consistency, accountability, and relentless attention to detail, balancing physical development with mental toughness to ensure players are prepared for the demands of competition and life beyond the field.
"Great linemen are developed through consistency, accountability, and attention to detail."
Coach Paiz has been coaching since 2012, dedicating his career to developing offensive and defensive linemen through detailed instruction, high standards, and a commitment to fundamentals. He has coached across multiple roles—Defensive Coordinator, Offensive Coordinator, and Head Coach—giving him a comprehensive understanding of both sides of the ball. Selected to coach the offensive line for the Monterey County All-Star Game, his unit paved the way for a decisive victory.
"Champions are made in the trenches. Let's get to work."
We work with athletes at every level—from complete beginners learning their first stance to varsity players preparing for college. Our programs are structured by age and experience, and sessions are tailored to meet each athlete exactly where they are.
Athletic clothing, cleats, and water. All training equipment—bags, leverage tools—is provided. Athletes should come ready to work and prepared to be coached hard.
Sessions typically run 60–90 minutes depending on the program and group size. Every minute is structured and purposeful—there's no standing around. We believe in high-quality reps over high-volume filler.
While our core focus is offensive line development, our coaches bring deep expertise in defensive line play as well. The techniques, strength development, and football IQ we build apply to both sides of the ball. Contact us to discuss defensive line training options.
We've developed multiple athletes who have gone on to play at the collegiate level. While we can't guarantee recruitment, we build the technical foundation, football intelligence, and physical tools that college coaches look for—and we help prepare athletes for that next step.
Technique and power. That's the foundation.
