Nick Hicks Trainer Talks about Tua (Video)

[Bruzer]

Interesting part I found was he is talking about Tua's strength and says

"Tua had really never done upper body strength ever his whole life, he did little at Alabama but he never did upper body strength. When we first got dumbbells in his hands he had 40lb dumbbells doing bench press for like 10 and he was struggling. By the end of the program he has 85's in his hands doing 15."

So definitely expect some more strength in those throws this year.

No doubt Tua has put in the work this offseason. It will pay off this year.

So glad you let us know you don't care. I was worried how you felt.

No doubt Tua has put in the work this offseason. It will pay off this year.

I definitely expect to see an improvement in some of the complaints people have about him.( Lack of strength in throws / ball velocity etc.. ) I hope it all works out to him being a much better QB time will tell but good to hear he is putting in the work.

Who cares?

Obviously the people who monitor Tua threads and take time to post in them, positive or negative.

Stronger body. More confidence. Stronger mind.

Who cares?

I think the same thing whenever I see you've posted.

Is there a correlation between bench pressing dumbells and throwing accurately or throwing for distance?

But how long can he last in bed

I couldn't honestly say. Just sharing a video and a interesting tid bit. Though my personal opinion as far as accuracy probably not much. Throwing distance I am sure a bit if it's building up shoulder strength that will help a bit with the strength behind the throws I would imagine. Though how much it helps no idea, not knowledgeable enough to say.
