I look at it like this. Every professional team including the soccer team I'm apart of has a "trainer" (different from the head coach/Manager). Now this trainer, he went to the local University, got the advanced sports science degree, researches all the websites etc. Now, I have a fast 40Yd dash, the quickest on the team. But, hes telling me how to run it, how to condition my body for it, what I should be doing, what I shouldn't & I ask him "What are you running in the 40" have you tested the methods & got great results personally???... Response; Never timed myself********************... I don't know if its just my single minded mentally that its my or the highway or if its just the alarm bells ringin' in my head.

What I'm saying is; I got my methods, they work & I've gone out & proved them through trial & error. Your telling me something else & you haven't proved a thing. No! No! I went to University.
