Steelers find different means of working out

[stillers4me]

Three days of lockout workouts this week featuring NFL players in Atlanta highlighted by 7-on-7 drills were so productive that a return engagement is expected to take place in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

Speed and conditioning coach Tom Shaw said he will host the event at ESPN Wide World of Sports next month. Shaw's group of approximately 20 players, which includes the Steelers' James Farrior and William Gay and free agent Ike Taylor, again will be matched against a group of approximately 30 Oakland Raiders players, led by defensive end Richard Seymour and quarterback Jason Campbell.

The groups participated this week in non-contact drills, including 7-on-7 match-ups between the offense and defense, under the direction of Shaw and fellow trainer Chip Smith of Competitive Edge Sports..........

Shaw also said safety Troy Polamalu told him he will train in Florida after
completing rehabilitation in California on an Achilles injury that limited his
range of motion toward the end of last season.





"The plan when he gets here is for him to work out with us in the morning and
rehab and physical therapy at Florida Hospital in the afternoon," Shaw said.
"Working out is key for him. You have to rehab to get better. He said he's
interested in coming down because he sees guys like Ike and James playing at a
high level."
