NFL Success: Is Speed the Key? Cardio & Strength Matter More

Question
hi i have a question is speed a good advantage of getting  to play in college or the NFL

Answer
Simple answer is no!!!!!!!...There are many "slow" players in the NFL.  Speed is not everything, heart is.  I personally feel that cardio & leg strength are the most important areas to work considering your question.

You have to be in excellent condition.  You may be running longer, faster, & more than any other position, over, & over, & over...You are the starter, no one else gets your position.  When everyone else runs one suicide, you run two!!!!!  When others are running sprints & bending over, you run an extra one, not for the team or your coach, but for yourself.

Proper weight-lifting is another requirement.  Find a good strength coach in your area if there's not one on staff.  This does not work properly unless you diet properly also.  No carbonated drinks...PERIOD.  High protein, no steroids. EVER!!!

Last, find a buddy equally as committed as you....Push each other.  My buddy was the quarterback ( I wonder why)  No excuses.  No excuses.  No excuses.  I hope to see you in the pros. Be that one in 1000.

Good luck...keep me informed.....
