The Citadel Athletic Weight Room

HISTORY
Located on the second floor of Seignious Hall, The Citadel's Weight Room is under the direction of Frank Wintrich, the program's head strength and conditioning coach.

Wintrich supervises the weight training and running programs with a premium placed on individual attention. Working with the respective coaching staffs, he plans and implements the team's workouts. 

With the funds in place in 2001, the weight room underwent a facelift to improve access to the athletes and more room for added equipment.  The additions and improvements included five double sided multi-purpose platforms with Citadel logos, five ascending benches / incline benches. two glute hamstring machines, two reverse hyper machines, two Austin leg drive machines, two universal cable row / lat pulldown / triceps extension machines, 40 45-pound Citadel logo bumper plates, 20 25-pound Citadel logo bumper plates, ten power bars, 14 medicine balls and a new stereo system with mounted speakers.

With the additions and improvements, The Citadel's wieght room is one of the premeir facilities not only for I-AA football, but also for all of our sports.
