Message: [QUOTE="coreyh88, post: 2516313, member: 8188"] The thing is if you watch the individual players a lot dont show or rarely show signs of fatigue (any of the spinal players, Hoffman, Glenn, Gillett, moose, any benchies) there are a few (thaiday, hannant) that look stuffed instantly and their number of minutes accentuates this severely. I think one or two players being exhausted really dents the effort, morale and enthusiasm of the rest. Obviously line speed has to be affected and I think the drop off in intensity in line speed carries over into everything else..... The fitness of the players is predominantly cardio (partially muscular endurance as well) this is improved with frequent physical exertion. And I believe in some players cardio is lacking although they shouldn't be asked to play as many minutes that's what the interchange is for. Conversely body fat is a fairly simple equation, there are some minor complexities, but essentially it is body fat = energy in (how much you eat) - physical exertion (this affects cardio and can be very high in addition to body fat being high). I'm just saying judging someone's cardiovascular capabilities on body fat is silly. [/QUOTE]
