On the flip side, Lance Smith was a guest captain a few years ago and he looked like he had gained a lot of weight and seemed like he could barely walk.

David Pollack looks bad IMO. Way too skinny for a former DE.

Alan also has a conditionthat prevented him from taking medication during his career . Side effect of medication is inability to keep on type of weight he needed to play football.

Wait... The guy in the middle? WTF

He looks like a hybrid of the guy from Dexter and Bryan Cranston, but creepier.


OK...you might be the most clever guy on the board... Hey... that might be an insult... Seriously.. Hilarious

All I can say is wow!! He actually looks like Dexter, Cranstan, and Daniel Day Lewis. His legs are way too skinny, as his whole body. never would have thought he would look like that this fast. heck, I was no lineman and now about the same size as JC Copeland (Slighly smaller)...Ouch!!! Need to hit the Marathons, but do not want to look that skinny

I heard an interview with him a few years ago. He is on a well regimented work out and diet. He is real serious about his health.

So are guys like Faneca and Pollack naturally ectomorphs/mesomorphs, who just force fed themselves to keep up NFL bodyweight, or endomorphs who diet/cardio exercise like crazy post NFL? For a guy like faneca who probably could squat 500 lbs a few years ago, his quad atrophy is astounding (although he probably added 20 years to his life with the weight loss/distance training).

He's a great guy. Completely down to earth. He lives in NOLA and his daughter went to the same school as my daughter last year..... When someone told me who I was I didn't believe them.

really no such thing. Gain weight, your a so called endomorph, lose weight and you are a so called ectomorph. just some stupid theory that someone came up with that has no basis in reality. Glad to see more and more of these ex NFL lineman losing the weight and living healthy. Kyle Turley is another one who did it. Shows a lot of self discipline
