Rocky Boiman Tennessee Titans NFL

After a long summer as an unsigned free agent, Rocky Boiman signed last week with his original team, the Tennessee Titans. He was actually drafted in the 4th round in 2002 by the team. He spent a few seasons there and then ended up with the Indianapolis Colts, where he earned the ultimate reward for an NFL player, a Super Bowl ring. And he spent last year with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The former Cincinnati St Xavier Bomber and captain for the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame spends most of his off-season free time finding a way to improve his game. You can usually find him at The Workout at Covington, just across the Ohio River from downtown Cincinnati and basically a long pass from Paul Brown Stadium...home of the Cincinnati Bengals.   It's there that he and other NFL players fine tune their strengths and prepare for the coming seasons. Strength training routines, agility work, flexibility training and cardio.... it's all part of the plan. And when they need to hit the field for all out drills and full gassers, they head to Covington Catholic High School, Thomas More College or Beechwood High School. Check out today's video of a few of the things that Rocky Boiman has been doing to prepare for his 8th NFL season.  And, if you'd like to learn more and how an ASAP Athletic Strength And Power could help you attain your goals, just give us a call at:

Oakland Raiders' Ricky Brown Continues ASAP Off Season Regimen/ Podcast

 

If you'd like to spend a day in Ricky Brown's shoes...you'd better be in a hurry. He does things fast.... very fast.  Of course, keep in mind, this guy was a track and football star back at Cincinnati Elder High School and it was running times like these that got people to notice:

• 11.1 in the 100 meter dash
• 22."something" in the 200 meter
• 50.6 in the 400m

With that kind of speed and football talent to match it, it was on to Boston College to excel as a starting linebacker with some good friends of his, Nick Larkin (Cincinnati St. X) and Tom Anevski (Elder).... all three, by the way, trained extensively at ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power. And after all the games and bowl appearances ended, it was on to the National Football League. In fact, he's embarking on his third season with the Oakland Raiders. So when he's back in his hometown, don't be surprised to see him working out at ASAP @ The River's Edge. The facilities there include strength training equipment, CORE Training devices, indoor Field Turf athletic fields and, of course the watchful eye of Coach Ted Lambrinides.
In today's podcast, Ricky talks about training camp in Napa Valley, his current workout regimen and some info on his nutrition program where "breakfast is the most important meal of my day". Just click on Ricky's game photo above for the 10 minute interview.

European Professional Basketball Player Chris Ensminger: ASAP Podcast

 

When Chris Ensminger is not working his 6'10" frame towards the basket as a professional player in the EuroLeague, he's usually back home in Cincinnati...or in training at The Workout @ Covington, just across the Ohio River in Kentucky.  ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power has just what "der Grosseman" needs to keep his body in optimal shape for the rigors of pro sports.  In fact, ASAP Director Ted Lambrinides added cambered squat bars to the training regimens at both the facility in Covington and the new facility in Cleves, Ohio (Cincinnati's westside) ASAP @ The River's Edge. The bar has allowed Chris to work the all-important squat exercise to a much increased range of motion.

Hear all about it in today's ASAP Strength Training Podcast. Just click on the official ASAP PODCAST Logo.

Chris talks about:

• Cincinnati Oak Hills High School and Coach Mike Price
• being a golf teammate of PGA Tour Pro Brett Wetterich
• some big years and NCAA March Madness experience at Valparaiso University

• 2 season's as German Champions
