​ ​Georgia Institute of Technology: Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets Strength Training with Coach Lew Caralla​

IMG_0913​Talk about a swarm of Yellow Jackets! This Georgia Tech Football squad was on the go as head strength Coach Lew Caralla certainly had things stirred up. This particular workout that sport science researcher and NFL player tracking specialist Dr. Ted Lambrinides and I witnessed consisted of some team building activities, some very well executed squat sets, some single-arm dumbbell bench presses. There was also a pretty serious bar hang competition going on. 
The strength training facility is located within the football home of the Yellow Jackets, Bobby Dodd Stadium. The scoreboard flashed a message, but nobody was there to see it. However, just a short walk through the tunnel and it was a complete contrast to the action inside the weightroom. We entered the Hugh Spruill Strength Training Center at 5:44 a.m. as the strength staff made preparations for the workout. A few minutes later… the action.

Just a few minutes away from Bobby Dodd Field at Georgia Tech, I’d suggest The Silver Skillet Restaurant.  serving Atlanta since 1956 is kindof a BIG deal! I went with the catfish, grits and eggs. Absolute Two Thumbs Up!  Dr Ted chose the Skillet Country Ham and Red Eye gravy with eggs.
