What works for a 41 year old health conscious QB who eats like a vegan is not likely to work with a 320 lb OL.
The majority of nfl players need strength and conditioning work, not pliability.
I mean that bradys workout regimen isn’t wha I would have the whole team do.I bet they do. I was responding to your post. You stated:
Guerrero’s program doesn’t fit all.Each person would have a specific program.
Not 1 size fits all.
True.I mean that bradys workout regimen isn’t wha I would have the whole team do.
Why can't they do both? Furthermore, is there any proof that Guerrero wouldn't recommend weight work and strength and conditioning work for OL and DL? The two are not mutually exclusive.
One of the most confusing seasons of television I have ever seen. I pray that it doesn’t go the route of “Lost.”If BB really is inflexible and unchanging, then at least that makes him a human and not a host.
My biggest question:
Why did/does Brady feel the need to have this guy attached to his hip? Why the hell can't he just do his own thing and keep it his own thing?
Why is this such a big problem lmao? I assume it's pretty rare to get the flexibility that Brady was afforded by Belichick, anywhere in the league.
Edit: For clarity

Rumors were that Guerrero was contradicting the training staff and trying to talk players out of lifting weights.I don’t think Belichick had a problem with Brady and some other player’s using Guerrero it’s when it started interfering with their overall health and training infrastructure that it became an issue. But when it comes to the pliability end of it I don’t see why he would ever oppose it because that only improves performance and prevents injury.
I’m not assuming it, im saying just because Guerrero has a program that works for Brady it doesnt mean he has a program that would work for other players.Why would you assume Guerrero would have the same program for O-linemen?
BTW, Gronk was using Guerrero and he did just fine last season.
I do think it is a bit odd that he doesn't just grin and bear it a bit more. Even if the TB12 method is a load of bunk, Brady (and others) clearly believe in it and there is value in that. If you think something is going to make the soreness and aches go away, then it just might.One of the great things about this board is the diversity of opinion on most subjects. So, in that spirit, I put the above question on the table. It is quite baffling to me.
We have often read about how BB is an innovator in many areas, is eager to learn from others, and is very adaptable to change. He is often a bellwether for the rest of the league. Yet, if we are to even partially believe the media (I know, that's a stretch!), it appears that he is hostile (or at least inflexible) when it comes to Alex Guerrero and the TB12 method of conditioning.
Medicine is rapidly changing; Sports Medicine as well. Brady swears by AG and his methods. That's hard to argue against, given that Tom's age, conditioning, and performance these past few years has been historic. Even Gronk had a healthy season last year and looked fresh throughout! I realize that the sample size is very small at this time, but doesn't the TB12 method look a bit promising?
Has BB thoroughly evaluated the TB12 methodology and concluded that it is horsesh*t? Why else hasn't he embraced it? Certainly, if he wanted to, he could find a way to integrate these ideas and methods into the Patriot system. Perhaps the "science" is too new to try? Maybe he just doesn't like AG?
Does anyone else here think that this situation is a bit odd?

See TB12’s facebook series. Tom and the other receivers made fun of Edelman for lifting weights.

Actually gronk wasn’t fine when camp started.
I think that was part of the issue.
