i read about a coach that does his warmups in a circuit rather then long lines of dynamic warmups..... im wondering if anyone else has done this and what your circuits consist of?

Ive done it some before. Depends on the workout for the day. Some favorites were box jumps. Bag jumps. Jump ropes. Jumping jacks. Knee tuck. Squat jumps. plate high pulls. Plate snatch. Push ups. Plate presses. Etc...

I was on a staff once where a dude did that P90X thing where you work out on TV, and we starting doing their warm up routing, it was awesome....
I don't remember it exactly, but its like
jog in place
high knees
squat jumps
jumping jacks
for 30 secs or so each, and you go through the circuit 4 times, speeding up a little each time, so by the end the jog in place is a sprint
it's a really good weight room warm-up because it requires no space, and I was happy with the simplicity of it, and it takes about 3 minutes.
i'm not sure if it meets the high standards of the nationally certified strength community, bud dudes got warmed up

Not sure if you're talking about a weight room warm up or an actual practice warm up. For the Fitness class I teach we often do circuit warm ups. I will usually have 4 or 5 stations, like:
- Hurdle over-unders (for hip mobility)
- Foam rolling
- A Speed/Agility/Quickness station which could be any of the following: skipping, speed ladder, BFS dot hop circuit, - stairs circuit, bag agilities, line hops
- Overhead squats and lunges with a PVC pipe
- Band pull-aparts and/or band x-walks
- Ankle mobility and an extended stretch (hip flexors, lats, hamstring, leg swings)
I've noticed that it has really helped our athletes squat lower.

In that case, when we were a spread team, we used the traditional air raid warm up: Settle & Noose, Pat & Go, Routes on Air
Our OL did something similar to this:

Haven't don't circuits before, but I would think that's a good time for non-essential but useful things like turnovers. Not to downplay turnovers, I just dunno about ROI and doing them as a warm up seems like a fair enough use of time. As far as long lines, I hate that, too. So I stopped with the preset number of lines and started having the kids just get into pairs or threes for their lines. Makes things go a lot faster with less time spent standing there waiting to go. |

That sounds a lot like what i do to get them ready to lift or run, but we do some form of lunge everyday |
