Please define, "often". I haven't seen it once.

Granted, the subject is explosive, and the rhetoric passionate, but do we really need to grossly overstate to understand its importance?

Having talked with our son, our son's strength and conditioning coaches, many of our son's college and minor league teammates/parents about off season workouts, and their strength and conditioning programs, yours is the first to suggest you haven't "ever" seen a player get broken down through that type of training and effort.
