Interesting.

I fought /trained Pradal Serey when I was a young man.

Grant looks vulnerable (For Fighting.) in that photo. Leaning forward, feet parallel behind his body weight. Bad footwork for fighting, perhaps OK for running a football.

I am not sure how MMA helps NFL players other than conditioning. Might be Ok for pass rushers, utilizing the FOUR upper limbs in the EIGHT limbs of motion that is taught.

I think this is a fad. But if it works, great... All the best for those who make the effort.

This fad will last until the first player is lost for the season with a concussion or knee injury. Then the NFL will crack down like they cracked down on skydiving and other risky activities. Don't most players have risky-activity clauses in their contracts already?

Bedard in his blog post reports that Glazer talked about how they've been working to loosen up Grant's hips - Glazer says one side was much more stiffer than the other and they've been working on that in training.

Interesting, I thought.

I heard this on NFL Radio on Sirius - they said Grant's range of motion was "much" improved. That and improved conditioning can only be good things...

---

Remember when football players took up dancing to improve their range of motion?

---

That's how Fred Flintstone got the nickname "Twinkletoes"...

If ryan grant knew how to cut he would be the best back in nfl history
