[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 669274, member: 265"] I'm not as sure about this as the rest of you. What I would concentrate on in the off season conditioning program is … conditioning. Our guys put on a considerable amount of weight in the off season and you could look at what happened in the early weeks of the season: they all [I]slowed down[/I] considerably and lost flexibility. You can expect this from quick weight gains. By the end of the season this wasn't as much in evidence, probably because the guys lost weight as the season progressed. What I'd concentrate on is not to try to transform 310 guy to a 325 guy, but to get the 310 guy really used to his weight and able to move it effectively at the start of the season. We actually have plenty of size coming back, but those people need to solidify their guts and strengthen their legs. This is not the case for some of our lineman; there's no general rule here. I'd keep Hansen where he is (315) and see if I could get Clark (295) to gain the 10 pounds. But I think our lines on both sides would benefit from more conditioning and less bulking up. [/QUOTE]
