Physical Demands Summary
College football coaches have moderate to high physical demands, including extended periods of standing, walking, and active engagement in physical activities. They may need to lift, push, pull, or carry heavy objects and stand or walk for long periods, often more than four hours per day. Coaches are also required to bend, stoop, or reach frequently during practices and games. Additionally, they work in varying weather conditions, including extreme heat, cold, rain, and snow, and often in noisy, crowded environments.
Coaches must also demonstrate athletic movements and maintain physical stamina, as prolonged use of core muscles, including the stomach and lower back, is necessary to support their posture and body during long hours of activity. The ability to coordinate and balance multiple movements simultaneously while remaining active is a key aspect of the role. Moreover, maintaining balance and stability, especially when modeling drills, is crucial to ensuring safety and effective coaching.
