This workout is dedicated to Bo Jackson, the two-sport phenom who dominated Nike's ad campaign in the late 80's and early 90's. Bo was that rare kind of athlete who excelled in both baseball and football. He was also the first athlete to be named to the All-Star team in both football (LA Raiders) and baseball (Kansas City Royals).
Bo kind of had it all, strength, speed, agility, and power. He was also dominating, smart, and competitive. Sadly his athletic career was snuffed out all too early due to serious hip injuries.
Anyway, I digress.....
This field workout is intended to help you get just that tiny bit closer to Bo's infinite greatness.
