Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

[quote=Buster;715286]I don't necessarily believe he failed due to conditioning...but from laziness or just not trying.

Supposedly, he's slim and in great shape for DE...probably lost the weight so he couldn't be used at NT...but he should be in good shape. His motivation is probably low or nonexistent though.

If this continues, the Skins should pursue recouping some or all of the signing bonus, then cut him.[/quote]

Or Shanahan would find a way to fail him just to stick it to him. Given Shanahan's language over the past day, it would not surprise me. While I don't think AH needs to be cut any slack, I think there are better ways to stick it to him during camp rather than doing this and continue the media circus. I hope this is not the case.

Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

If true, who cares? Did any other players fail the test?
The guy is a 340 pound immovable object, not a WR or DB.
They are worried he is going to get hurt because he cannot run a certain routine? Silly. Put him in and let him run over some of our OL. Then see who will get hurt.

Shanahan - "Hey fatso, you failed to keep your shorts up at an acceptable height during your sprint. You fail. Do it again, this time backwards and blindfolded."

[quote=TIFOSOdeiREDSKINS;715290]i think in the hierarchy of things jogging actually falls in between walking and running. walking is slowest and running is fastest.[/quote]

What about sprinting?

Im worried that in the second part of the test Al got upset about somthing and just walked thourgh the remaining workouts. Maybe he had to complete the test (even without effort) for contract purposes? Maybe im reading too much into this?


Also i just found this. Hopefull it will clear somethings up:

Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

I find it odd that he passed the first part but failed the second part. Ah well, he's still Albert Feignsworth.

Well, AH may fairly be said to have displayed some baby-like qualities in the last few months, but I don't think he's quite a Brandon Marshall, although that's probably a minority opinion.

I wouldn't believe that for a second. It makes no sense and Shanahan is too professional to do such an unproductive thing.

Well this is not good...

[QUOTE]CindyBoren
RT @kjohnsoncsn: Just confirmed Haynesworth failed conditioning test! If he'd worked out w/team in offseason, he wouldn't have had 2 take it.[/QUOTE]

So much for looking forward to training camp. Call me when pre-season begins, because if you follow the team this is all anyone in the media is going to talk about. Ugh.

Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

[quote=rbanerjee23;715288]Test is usually something super easy like running 50 yards a certain number of times and in a certain amount of time. So he could have run for some of it and walked the other part.[/quote]

i read part of the 'workout" was running 50 yards twelve times.

can we expect to see some video of todays workouts on redskins nation tonight on tv?

Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

Wait, I thought Big Al and MS were working together to increase his trade value. Did the conditioning test grader not get the memo?

Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

I think maybe his test was perhaps a bit more difficult than it probably should have been...but that's on Haynesworth. He's the one who insisted he needed to work out on his own to be in the best of shape, so he has to prove it was worth it.

Have now heard from multiple sources that he indeed did fail the test

Re: Haynesworth fails conditioning test
 

Cardio strength has always been Haynesworth only real weakness.

His endurance has never been very good, but everyone just lets it slide because he is so dominant when he isn't on the sideline sucking wind.

This is no surprise to me.

Yeah my first thought was that's a hell of a lot of running for a DT, but you're right, he made his bed by not participating in the offseason stuff. I can't feel bad for him.
