Re: BYU hires new Strength and Conditioning Coach
Should I be concerned that this guy is the biggest story in the off season for BYU sports? Come on, everyone has a strength and conditioning coach. I would be shocked if BYU is doing anything any better than anyone else. If he made such a huge difference, why wasn't a change made to our program years ago?

Re: BYU hires new Strength and Conditioning Coach
That's the question, right?
7 weeks and we'll see if there is any noticeable difference on the field.

I take as a positive it means that the players are keeping their noses clean and there have been no significant injuries.frdbtr wrote:Should I be concerned that this guy is the biggest story in the off season for BYU sports?

Re: BYU hires new Strength and Conditioning Coach
Were there any other variables that changed or was he the only one? Not trying to be argumentative, just trying to get a clear picture of what changed.scott715 wrote:Some stats

Re: BYU hires new Strength and Conditioning Coach
BYU has struggled for over a decade to get out from under the Coach Stiggins model of strength and conditioning, which went of style the same time as rollerblades.frdbtr wrote:Should I be concerned that this guy is the biggest story in the off season for BYU sports?

This move to more plyometric-based conditioning is long overdue.

Re: BYU hires new Strength and Conditioning Coach
Coach Omer was a step down from Coach Stiggins. Stiggins was progressive up until the moment he stopped coaching. Then things really started to go downhill...snoscythe wrote:BYU has struggled for over a decade to get out from under the Coach Stiggins model of strength and conditioning, which went of style the same time as rollerblades.frdbtr wrote:Should I be concerned that this guy is the biggest story in the off season for BYU sports?

Re: BYU hires new Strength and Conditioning Coach
That said, I am STOKED for Wintrich and his new training approach which is long overdue, and the players seem to be as well!
