HOU-TEX
Ah, Football!
I wasn't really wanting to start a new thread, but I was unable to find where to post this info.
Anywho, it appears Ray has had the same thoughts as many here on the board. Other than myself, Pencil Neck, steroids and Vinny should like the direction the Texans are going with their S&C program.
Thoughts?

I like the fact they're adding more free weights. I also love the addition of yoga and jiu jitsu. I took Tai Quan Do during my short stint in College football and it was a night and day difference in flexibility.The program this year was designed by new head strength and conditioning coach Ray Wright to focus on isolating muscles groups and preventing injury.
I think he is going to switch it up this year with muscle memory type routines. You get so used to doing a certain routine that your muscles get used to that. When you switch it up a bit, it gets other muscles in your body that you havent worked out or smaller muscles that you dont usually work
To emphasize muscle isolation, Wright has redesigned the weight room, removing a handful of weight machines and adding free weight stations.
Wright also has added optional yoga and Jiu Jitsu classes to increase the players flexibility.
