Anyone have a picture or knowledge of what the type of equipment that Art Briles was using at Stephensville that he references in his book Beating Goliath? He calls them monkey bars and overhead ladders and also says they used parallel bars. What type of routines were they using and is anybody doing anything similar that they feel has been beneficial for the mental toughness and upper body strength of the kids in their program? I know this was probably 20+ years ago but I'm always looking for tried and true mental toughness exercises that may help improve the upper body strength of our kids that aren't as naturally blessed physically. Many of these exercises may be easier for our skill guys, but if these take an OL who couldn't do a dip or a pull-up before hand and gets him to a point where he can handle his body weight better, gains grip strength-upper back-bi-tri-core strength, and increases his mental toughness in all about it.
Any thoughts on this above run on thought appreciated!

oh, I was a fat kid, hated them, that is why I have my weight class do them when we go outside and that is why my own kids can do them, I don't want them to go through that experience
