Ben Roethlisberger More Strict Than Tom Brady With Diet & Training

[86WARD]

Ben Roethlisberger didn't just cut his own salary to remain the Steelers' quarterback for the 2021 season. Apparently he's also cutting all kinds of weight and poor eating habits.

According to reporter Ryan Burr, the 39-year-old signal-caller has prioritized physical conditioning ahead of the new season, to the point his "diet is stricter than" that of Buccaneers QB Tom Brady, who is of course famous for his rigid nutrition regimen. Burr cites a source from Roethlisberger's camp in suggesting the QB is "obsessed" with his new workout plan in an effort to prove naysayers wrong entering 2021.

I’ll believe this tale when I see it with my own eyes.

And maybe we’d have a couple more Lombardi’s if he’d done this throughout his 30’s.

Roethlisberger has played a full season just once in the last six years. He missed one game in 2020 after sitting out all but two games the year prior due to a shoulder injury.

You know he is not hitting the weights and never did nor Brady. Seems like the best QB's don't do that. Willson and Mahommes are just a new generation. Rest of them don't workout with weights. Last Steeler QB to workout a lot with weights was Neil O'Donnell and maybe the only one.

Working out with weights too much can hurt a qb’s throwing motion, look at Tebow, at least that was one of a handful of his problems as a QB….

Rodgers is doing that. At least according to him, he can squat a bunch of load. But he definitely doesn't look like he's hitting gym seriously.

Any "reporting" that doesn't come from a local source is unreliable. https://dkpittsburghsports.com/ is by far best source for not just Steelers news, analysis, and commentary, but for coverage of all of Pittsburgh's professional sports teams.

There are different ways to lift. All lifting does not translate to bulk. Lifting works in combination with your diet to achieve the goals you’ve set. Additionally, your exercises and number of reps play a big role in the type of results you get. To say a QB shouldn’t lift because it will make him bulky is very uniformed.
