Ben Hilgart. (Jon Fleming)

After Part 1 of this series went live, it struck me that it’d be impossible to meaningfully explain the differences between Gentry’s and Hilgart’s styles (which in the big picture are pretty subtle) to most folks if I didn’t first talk about the nuts and bolts of strength and conditioning. So before jumping into talking about the two coaches, I’m going to try to make this a short overview of S&C theory, and I’ll cant it towards Virginia Tech.
