Today’s top college football programs combine muscle, nutrition, and sports science to gain an edge — and Iowa’s Hansen Football Performance Center is among the best in the nation. In this week’s Fight for Iowa, Gary Dolphin visits with Hawkeye strength and conditioning director Raimond Braithwaite, now in his 21st season with the program and sixth as director, about how his team prepares players year-round for the grind of a Big Ten schedule. From offseason conditioning and nutrition to heat safety and recovery, Braithwaite explains how science and discipline power Iowa Football.
Head coach Kirk Ferentz also weighs in on the critical role strength and conditioning plays in building a championship-caliber team.
