Quote from Andre Davis on the
official about Ray Wright:
Quote:

“I think he is going to switch it up this year with muscle memory type routines. You get so used to doing a certain routine that your muscles get used to that. When you switch it up a bit, it gets other muscles in your body that you haven’t worked out or smaller muscles that you don’t usually work – he works on those so you don’t have the nicks and bruises or they will heal faster because the whole body is working better together as a whole.”

And here's the best part:
Quote:
To emphasize muscle isolation, Wright has redesigned the weight room, removing a handful of weight machines and adding free weight stations.
“From walking in there, the weight room is completely different,” wide receiver Kevin Walter said. "There’s not as many machines as there used to be. The warm up is a little different.”

Still more changes, and some insight into Duane Brown this offseason:
Quote:
Wright also has added optional yoga and Jiu Jitsu classes to increase the players’ flexibility.
“I’m excited about that,” left tackle Duane Brown said. “I know it’s going to help me out a lot with my flexibility. I tried to do it in college a couple of times, but I just couldn’t get it. But maybe with the setting being a little different and me being with my teammates, I will feel a little more comfortable doing it.”
Brown spent the offseason slimming down to improve his mobility in the team’s zone blocking scheme and said he could feel the effects of the new program upon leaving the weight room.

I did a bit of yoga last year, and it really improved my balance. Enough about me though...
Quote:
Walter has planned to combat any soreness this offseason by spending time in his hyperbaric chamber, a pressurized chamber that pumps out air with increased oxygen levels.
“You’ve got to do everything to put yourself in the best position to be successful, and I think that (hyperbaric chamber) does,” Walter said.
