Jamal Liggin is ready to grind this offseason—so you’d better believe his players are, too.
Over the last decade, the Los Angeles-based NFL trainer has established himself as one of the best in the business, helping pros like Odell Beckham Jr. and Ryan Clady get faster, stronger, and better on the field with unique speed drills and workouts.
The 2017 offseason is no different.

Liggin is once again working with dozens of NFL players as they get ready for OTA workouts, offseason programs, and, of course, training camp later in the summer. But Liggin’s not only working with current NFL players. He’s also working with retired star Marshawn Lynch—his former high school classmate—as the running back mulls a comeback.
“When they want to get faster and work on agility, quickness, and vision, I’m right there and ready for them whenever they call,” Liggin told Men’s Fitness in February 2017.
The video below shows off just some of the stuff Liggin and his team are doing with his players, including boxing training, heavy rope workouts, intense cardio and treadmill runs, cryotherapy, kettlebell workouts, and, of course, his one-of-a-kind “tennis ball drill” that helps players with hand-eye coordination, reaction time, vision, and explosiveness:
Over his career, Liggin’s worked with hundreds of athletes in different sports like soccer, tennis, boxing, mixed martial arts, and hockey—he’s also trained entertainment superstars like Sean “P. Diddy” Combs and Naomi Campbell—but football is central to Liggin’s training career.
