Several weeks ago, I was invited to attend an event I had only heard about previously.
The breakfast club,powered by the NFL Players Association and run by EXOS. It’s a six-week program designed for former players to work out, access resources for nutrition, physical therapy, performance and lifestyle, as well as continue the competitive nature of their time in the NFL.
The program takes place three times a week in 12 major cities around the country at local YMCAs or EXOS centers and is new here in Kansas City.
Weight loss and fitness scores are kept, giving former players competitive motivation, which they can use to either return to or maintain the level of fitness that they desire.
