Good piece written by Ross Tucker at SI.com. As most NFL teams open up their important off-season strength and conditioning programs, Tucker talks about how the strength coach’s job is all about injury prevention. He does make some good points as all current NFL players are almost certainly strong enough. More attention must be given to helping the players feel better and “healthy” during the season. With the functional movement screen and other protocols being used along with corrective exercises, I think that there will be a shift towards more corrective programs being done in the NFL.
