We headed north on I-65 out of Indianapolis. After a couple of back roads, ASAP arrived on the scene in West Lafayette and the campus of Purdue University…. well known for its engineering curricula. It’s a prestigious university with stringent academic standards. It’s also an original member of the Big Ten Conference (though known as the Western Conference in 1896), so they’ve been playing football there for a long time! Recently, the Boilermakers have had a resurgence under their head coach Jeff Brohm, who has the team’s and fan’s attention, especially after a seven win inaugural season and a Bowl victory over the Arizona Wildcats.
That kind of turnaround doesn’t get accomplished without a serious training regimen. Enter Purdue’s Director of Football Strength & Conditioning Justin Lovett. He’s embraced his opportunity under Coach Brohm and has the Boilermakers going full steam ahead in their brand new football performance center.
ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power, had to check it out! The place is astounding and the training is real! I sat down in Coach Lovett’s office and fired up the recorder for this ASAP Podcast (technical difficulty with the recording) and gained some insight into this up and coming Big Ten program!
