Welcome to Lukings Linemen, Specialized training for Defensive Lineman, Edge Rushers, and all front 7 defenders.

I love developing the craft of a defensive lineman so let me help you! . . . . . . . . My name is Zack Lukings and I've been involved with football since I began playing in 2002.. I quit the next year because I thought "football was hard," but by the 2004 season I was craving to play and the rest was history! I was Defensive Lineman of the Year in my final year with the London Falcons and was an OVFL All-Star in 2009. Next, I played as a starter at the University of Toronto for all 5 years there, playing across the defensive line from 2010-2014. I then when on to coach defensive line for the Metro Toronto Wildcats in 2016, where despite our 3-5 record, our defence averaged less than 7 points a game and nearly lead the league in sacks. The following year, I took my talents to the Toronto JR. Argos, where I coached the defensive line en route to an undefeated Championship season. Our defence once again averaged less than 7 points a game and averaged 4 sacks a game. In 2018, we didn't make it back to the Championship, but we averaged 5.9 points a game and were top 5 in sacks and TFLs. Argos as the Defensive Coordinator. In 2018, I then began coaching at the prep school Football North. Over the past 3 years I've coached the defensive line and generally helped out with the defense at both the Jr. and Sr. level. I have helped train and coach >8 players who have went on to play at NCAA Div. 1 programs including Tyrell Lawrence (Minnesota), Reignings Awah (Kent State), and Cade Cote (Central Michigan). . . . . . . .

"Coach Lukings has helped me so much both athletically and mentally he has helped me become a better football player as well as a man. He understands the game of football very well and uses his knowledge of the game to better coach his players. After being coached by him you will find a different perspective of the game and he will definitely make an impact on your life. I can honestly say that Coach Lukings has been a big part in helping me achieve my goal of going to a division one school. Coach Lukings and I have and will continue to have a relationship outside of football for a very long time." - Tyrell Lawrence, University of Minnesota Offensive Tackle . . . . . . . . . . "Coach [Lukings] had me for only one football season and turned me from a U-Sports player to a Div 1 player. I was normally a linebacker and when I got to him I was quite raw in the defensive end position but he coached me up very effectively and was one of the reasons why I’m where I’m at, and I can’t thank him enough." - Cade Cote, Central Michigan Linebacker/Defensive End
