Right now, the members of the Chicago Bears are currently at training camp getting ready for the upcoming season. This training camp is different than ones in years past, because the various players on the team had to get in shape themselves. The teams couldn’t hold practices leading up to training camp because of a lockout that had the league at a standstill. That lockout has ended, and the players are now together.

According to the Chicago Tribune, the wide receivers have done much to keep in shape during the offseason. Johnny Knox explained his motivation and said, “I just had to get stronger up top. That was my goal during the lockout. When I curl, I curl light for repetition. When it comes to bench or incline, that’s when I do heavy stuff.”

Fellow receiver Devin Hester also put on pounds by working out. The two joined many other Bears during the offseason to train at EFT Sports Performance. It looks like it paid off, because the team members look as in shape as they would have if the lockout hadn’t happened. See them live by reserving Chicago Bears tickets from StubHub.
