Message: [QUOTE="SmilinBob, post: 2661799, member: 857"] I'll ask those whom have played or coached HS/college/pro football as I never did...don't these kids pretty much, especially the top football schools, work out pretty much all year? How much is actually enough? Back in my day (had to write that!) nobody just worked out 12 months for one sport and now the demand at the practices before the first game seems to be rough along with what they did in the past. Also, is this a "weeding" out of the kids who didn't work out for the 11 or 12 months and perhaps they are the ones considered soft? "Hey, Johnny worked out all year and you don't see him gasping for air!". I understand getting ready for the strains of the game and I'm sure some are completely out of shape as well but how do you recognize when enough is enough? [/QUOTE]
