ASAP was there in July 2010 to document the intense training going on down in Lexington, Kentucky. There was the UK Basketball Squad, on basically the hottest day of the summer, out on the Field Turf Practice field of the UK Football team. Ray "Rock" Oliver, Ted Lambrinides, Mike Malone, and Chris Simmons were there to supervise the workouts and make sure that the proper training protocol was met. Then, out came the Wildcats.The giant sound system was blaring some loud, pounding rap. Nothing like "My Old Kentucky Home." It was about 97 degrees that day....probably 114 on that turf.
The Workout: driving the Ram Sleds up and down the turf using an Interval Training methodology. The players were wearing Polar Heart Rate Monitors and data was being recorded throughout. It was....well.... brutal.
Not surprisingly, Kentucky is heading to the Final Four! Here's another look at the exclusive, ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power video from the E.J. Nutter Training Facility.
