It's easy for us to be super critical of the guy's mistake from the outside looking in but these suggestions make it clear some of us might not have done much better. The track definitely wasn't a good idea but the turf might not have been much better. Yall know how hot turf gets? 

Not nearly as hot as a track will get.

Also, that turf at Woodville is the wood chip filler type. It stays much cooler than the rubber pellet filler turf fields.

That turf would not have caused those type injuries.

Do you know if the turf hasn't caused burns/blisters in the past?

With 100% certainty? No. But I do know many teams do bear crawls on their turf fields and I have never heard of any athlete complaining about getting burns or blisters from the turf.

The likelihood of someone getting burns or blisters from bear crawls on a track are much much higher than doing that on any turf field. I think most folks would understand that difference.

But I see that if one person got burns or blisters from bear crawls on turf while 100's got it while on a track, you would see it as the same.

The point being, if that activity had to be a choice, then it would have been much more sensible to do that activity on the field and not the track. If you cannot see that, then I can't help you.

Athletes don't always complain about these type of injuries. That type of behavior is just not encouraged in athletic circles. You know that. Mothers don't always take their children to the ER for burns/blisters and if they go to the ER they're not always referred to the burn unit. Scenarios just don't always play out like this but if they did lots of coaches would constantly be in trouble. There was a 7th grade girl who publicly complained of 2nd degree burns she got from bear crawls on a turf field last April in Caldwel though. And turf gets hotter than grass or asphault regardless of what type of filler is used by the way

Was it several girls at Caldwell (like WV)? 
 

Also, whether the turf is hotter or the same is irrelevant. Enjoy your irrelevant analogies. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next.

I 100% disagree with that last sentence.

Bro I really don't feel like even entertaining you because your motives aren't genuine at all but to answer your question there was only one girl complaining at Caldwell because there was only one girl participating in the exercise. Meanwhile there were 10 complaints about a bear crawl incident in Crandall a couple years back.

What exactly is the tik tok challenge is the big question,it may be the fact of doing bear crawls ON A HOT TRACK

I played sports in high school and college then I coached for 15 years. I ve been part of many strength and conditioning programs…I used common sense all those years and still do.

dont know the guy. don’t have any feeling either way on him, but come on we all know what it feels like when human flesh touches something hot….like running across concrete or asphalt barefooted. We have all learned that at a young age.

no not super critical just using common sense.

it is what it is….he made a poor decision due to not using common sense. U can make it out to what u want.  I’m not here to talk about the guys character or anything or talk bad about him.

In all my years of playing and coaching I ve never seen or been part of a program that had athletes do bear craws on a track.

It's not the most popular thing but it's not completely unheard of. My point is a track is not a good idea but turf is not much better. So pointing out a lack of common sense while suggesting turf doesn't make sense to me

Well I never heard of it and I ve been around the block…..maybe it’s a woodville thing.

not sure if your referencing others but I never once said anything about turf.

I was at la Porte in mid 2000s when we got turf and yeah it felt like my soles on my shoes were melting off.

Turf does not  get hotter than asphalt

I think your probably a bball guy and bear crawls in general are more of a football thing anyway. The guy you quoted was suggesting the field next to the track which is turf.

Another brilliant analogy: multiple complaints = multiple to the ER. Keep them coming.

Now you just sound like your trying to point fingers or lead the convo elsewhere with your  unnecessary points to try to disqualify common sense.

i played both sports and coached both sports….that’s irrelevant….doesnt take a football only guy to understand HOT + FLESH = BURN…..a 2 year old learns this pretty quick in life. So nice try.

i can see this is going no where.  ✌️

Trying to lead the convo elsewhere? Looks like your just getting upset about points being made about a topic you claim you have no ties to. Yall weird on here

You are right, all the people on this site are weird except for one. I am glad I am one of the weird.

[AggiesAreWe]

If I have to do bear crawls and my only two choices is do them on is an asphalt track or wood chip filler turf, I am taking the turf each and every time. But I have common sense.

If I am a coach and my choices are an asphalt track or a wood chip filler turf to have my athletes do bear crawls on, I am choosing the turf. But I have common sense.

FYI, Woodville ISD and any other schools that have the wood chip filler turf fields have to put water on these fields regularly to keep the wood chips from getting too dry. This keeps them cooler than the rubber filler turf fields.

I am 100% certain that the field at Eagle Stadium was cooler than the track that day.

Everything I’ve read says there were only 2 choices,do a tik tok challenge or do a workout?

Anybody with common sense,if you don’t believe it then go record your self doing it and show it to us…maybe you would agree  hot asphalt will melt your hands before you realize it’s hot,turf will tell you hey this is hot

If you are saying that a grass or dirt field was another choice, then common sense was definitely not used in this situation.
