“Mr. Gameday” Kirk Herbstreit makes an appearance at Total Fitness Connection’s GameDay Sports Physicals April 25, 2015. Learn more about Kirk by clicking here. Watch his interview above!
Kirk addressed student-athletes Saturday morning inside Total Fitness Connection’s Multi-Sports Complex. Kirk has four boys all enrolled in baseball training at Total Fitness. He volunteered his time Saturday morning, shared some of his experiences playing for Ohio State and gave great advice to local athletes on mixing it up with different sports. He also emphasized that only 1% of student-athletes make it to the Pro level and how important education is to their future. He mentioned sports enhancement and how eating, sleeping, and dieting combined with speed and conditioning is crucial if you want to get to the next level.
In addition to Kirk’s outstanding advice to parents and student-athletes, the atmosphere was almost like an NFL combine! Athletes were competing in 40 yard dash, vertical jump and the agility course. TFC sports physicals included several stations for athletes to complete their sports physicals. There was a vision, blood pressure, height/weight, physical therapy, physical exam, and combine challenge. Each of the athletes received GameDay t-shirts sponsored by Sporting Times.
