Great article in the Sun today on Tom Zbikowski. Gives you great confidence in his ability to fill in for Ed Reed while he recoups from his injuries. Some quotes from the article about his offseason training at the Turner Pain and Wellness Center in Naperville, Ill:
Turner put Zbikowski through an exotic routine of plyometrics and functional sport- and position-specific exercises. Turner said Zbikowski increased his vertical jump by nearly 8 inches.
"Before, he couldn't touch the rim," Turner said. "Now he can dunk."Zbikowski also wanted to strengthen his neck and improve his durability in case he gets to return punts this season. He added 21/2 inches to his neck, Turner said.
I mean Holy Crap! This is a man who truly understands what it takes to get to the next level in the NFL. I can't wait to see the results on the field this year.
