    ASAP Strength Training Podcast (episode #56) with Philadelphia Eagles Strength Coach Mike Wolf

Wolf That allowed the Strength Coach for the Eagles, Mike Wolf,  an opportunity to get back together with ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power Program Director Ted Lambrinides. Since the Eagles are in town, it gave the coaches a chance to  sit down for dinner  and discuss strength training and conditioning in the NFL....and of course nutrition while at the Montgomery Inn Boathouse.  
    Joining the dinner party were Assistant Strength Coaches Barry Rubin and Jay Merlino. (Coach Rubin, in fact, spent plenty of years as the Strength Coach of the Green Bay Packers). Also, ASAP Podcaster Ed Cicale made sure that the protein content of his entree was sufficient.
