NFL Game Day 2012: Get Off Your Tailgate

Watch NFL games during the week; play on the weekends. Leave the stadium seats and hit the field with NFL-caliber workouts, nutrition, and recovery techniques.

Is football your religion? Do you know the plays before the defense does? Did you find yourself shouting "I could do that!" at the TV during week one? (OK, maybe that was at the replacement refs, but still.)

Then it's time to put your body where your mouth is. To dominate on the weekend, you have to live the gridiron from the breakfast table to the massage table, with all the wind-sprints you can stomach in between. If you're a player, or just a serious fan, then train, eat, run, and recover like the big boys!
