The Eastside made its way to the gym this July. Decatur’s own Marcus McNeill wanted to give me a test run, and decided to stay….at least until open day for camp! He offers up the scoop on my training and how you can be just like him.
1. I heard about John through the grapevine. A lot of guys in the NFL use him, and I decided to test him out.
2. I think he has me in better shape than I have ever been going back into camp. [His training] is a total body workout. John works not only on weight training but trains your body to be fit.
3. I like the way that [John] works out because it’s continuous. Many times when you workout with other guys you might workout but then you have a lot of leisure time to sit around and talk. When you are training here, as soon as you walk through the door, you are working until you leave.
4. A lot of the things that [offensive linemen] do on the field has to deal with your core and your balance. John really works all that. Regardless of the workout, you will get a good core workout develop good core strength.
5. You have to really stay focused. Sometimes it’s easy to go astray, especially in metro Atlanta. I think what John has going really helps out a lot of kids that have great potential.
Marcus is back in action with the Chargers today against the Oakland Raiders at 10:15 p.m. EST on ESPN.
