Steelers | Yoga Class Included in Team's Offseason Conditioning - from www.KFFL.com
Mon, 24 May 2004 12:20:53 -0700
Teresa Varley, of Steelers.com, reports Pittsburgh Steelers strength and conditioning coach Chet Fuhrman, along with assistants Anthony Griggs and Marcel Pastoor, have included a Yoga class into the team's offseason conditioning program to improve players' flexibility. "It's challenging," said Steelers FB Dan Kreider. "It's hard to hold yourself in those positions for a certain amount of time."
I am telling you if we do this, we will have 50% less nagging injuries and strains. Steelers have the right idea, although there training room probably looks pretty funny with all of those 300 lb guys trying some of those moves.

Our guys are lucky DG gives them water on occasion so they don't die of heat stroke. DG is old school and right or wrong I don't think he's going to embrace the idea of hiring a yoga instructor.
