In November, I had a post about NASCAR stud Jimmie Johnson. I don't really follow NASCAR, so when I kept hearing about Jimmie Johnson, I thought at first they were discussing the old Dallas Cowboy's coach (I'm a Dallas fan).
Anyways, my post in November discussed his workout regimen. It was pretty intense and his results are backing it up. Well, today on Sportscenter, they had a clip of his workout routine to hype the Daytona 500. After I watched it, I decided he is my new favorite driver, but I still won't watch an event.
He was bench pressing 80 pound dumbbells (either 70 or 80). He was jumping rope inbetween sets. Then he was doing pull-ups with a 45 pound weight attached to his weight belt. That ain't no joke.
He is 5'11", 165 pounds and 8 percent bodyfat. He definitely takes his driving seriously. He doesn't spend much in-person time with his trainer, so he does a lot of online training to keep track of his progress and get updated reports.
Online training...hmmm, I wonder who has been promoting that recently. If it is good enough for Jimmie Johnson to do, it certainly will work for you.
Anyways, I found the guy hard-working and showing yet another sport that is benefiting from a solid strength and conditioning program.
