BoNeyard Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I just feel that if you have been implementing your strength and conditioning workouts and nutritional advice since 2017 the progress should be there and noticeable by now with 18-22 year old division 1 college athletes. 1 Quote Link to comment

Most of the players have improved measurables in strength and conditioning. That doesn't mean they are playing their run fits properly. 3 Quote Link to comment

There are some guys who definitely look like they've done well, Robinson definitely being one of them, but I don't see a enormous change anywhere else. Quote Link to comment

Not compared to position groups from Bama, Clemson, LSU etc....No doubt we look better, but it's a closed comparison. A lot to top tier teams that have great S&C have been getting guys stronger/faster for years. NU is just into year 2 of caring about S&C. This could be a factor in performance when you talk about losing "X" number of games in the last few minutes....I don't think you peak in S&C. It continually improves. We are much better than 2 years ago, but still probably behind our B1G counterparts..... 1 Quote Link to comment

The more years and time in S&C, the better. It matters. 1 Quote Link to comment

So we don’t have to go pickup juco kids to fill holes for a year or 2. We need the kids on the field to have been in the program for years 1 Quote Link to comment

Gotta get the depth in the system, not just filling gaps. It's a great idea as a stop gap, but I don't think you make a championship run with guys in the system for a year or two.... 1 Quote Link to comment

Will Honas and Dedrick Mills were ranked #1 at their positions and were only 88 grades. Which is fine enough I guess but better prep recruiting will lead to better class rankings as a general rule.

Unless you have God-like genetics, it takes years for proper training to really show, especially when you're starting with the love handle brigade at o-line 1 Quote Link to comment

We've seen Ziggy transform quickly. I myself once dropped 140 pounds in 10 months because I was tired of being fat and out of shape (a divorce kinda motivated me). 2 Quote Link to comment

But, that's very different than taking that fat off, but actually gaining a lot of weight with muscle mass. I have always been able to drop weight fast too. But, gaining muscle was always difficult. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

I have always been able to drop weight fast too. But, gaining muscle was always difficult. Losing weight fast is easy. Losing weight without losing muscle is much harder. Gaining straight muscle is even harder. For the regular person training hard you can lose 2-3 pounds per month, but most only gain 0.5-1 pounds per month of muscle. Obviously these guys aren't average but the ratio probably holds. It's 2-3x harder to gain muscle than lose fat. 2 Quote Link to comment
