Tom Brady: Muscle Pliability Key To Workout Method, Prevents Injuries

Brady says his TB12 method is a whole new take on athleticism that focuses on muscle pliability rather than strength. WBZ-TV's Kate Merrill reports.

43 years old and just won another Super Bowl

[@redaderoua8816]

It's honestly insane

[@jonathanfernandez2078]

It’s looking like he’ll win another one.

[@aaronhighway162]

45 and still going

[@Robert-wo4xp]

I’m proud of Tom. He’s a great quarterback and people hate on Greatness. They hate Jordan and Kobe and Brady. Brady your an inspiration, you try so hard at football. You blessed us with your plans to fitness to improve our lives. When Tom talks which isn’t often, I’m listening

[@RiaaDemolishIt]

The greats are always hated on. RIP Kobe, cant believe I'm saying this 😔

[@gabrielcoronado6395]

Who hates Jordan...? 😳

[@sway3699]

And Lebron

[@mjz22]

it’s already been 5 years and he’s still playing, what a beast

[@JohnathanClark15]

5 YEARS after this interview he retired after the 2022 Season. 🔥

[@nanaprt61]

This man is not human. Unbelievable player, unbelievable athlete.

[@tyleraddison5694]

He is a great quarterback but he is not a athlete he will admit that Deshaun is an athlete Lamar is an athlete Tom is a great quarterback

[@cp-hs9mt]

Tyler Addison he’s still a great athlete just not compared to other nfl players

[@tyleraddison5694]

c p nah he even admitted he’s not an athlete he’s not a athlete at all he’s just a great quarterback

[@redfirebonus9408]

He’s not the best athlete he’s an extraordinary player

[@spongecake1173]

He doesn't wanna get cut from the team. He also has a very low injury rate.

[@684avatar]

Just Elizabeth he takes care of himself. Everyone should be like that.

[@greysonG10]

Fucking Elizabeth..

[@Mr.Hyde_23]

wow, great analysis.

[@sinainot469]

It certainly works for positions like QB...and he’s looking at long term sustainability as the most important aspect.

[@teresazambrowski8943]

Right on target Mr. Brady! Top level performers do things the right way and a certain way. Words mean nothing, results matter. Mr. Brady is that result. Go read the book or get the audio version and learn something new. If you dismiss this material it's your own loss. If you do not like the Patriot or Mr. Brady and focus on the messenger and ignore the material for those reasons it's your own loss. For those who love improving their lifestyle, body and quality of life, go for it. It's your own win!

[@rogergoodell2785]

Teresa zambrowski Well said

[@the_traveling_man4284]

And here we are...

[@lhorbrum1818]

Wish him well.

[@volumeturneddown9401]

I hope he gets James Harrison to do more plyometrics. I watch the workouts Harrison posts, and they're all about lifting maximum weight. I don't doubt that he is powerful, but what about explosive strength? What about change of direction in the open field?

[@Tripl3Cherri3s]

I'm sure he does it, it's just not what he films himself doing..

[@asbjrnl.srensen3781]

Listen to his book. What slight irritates me is that he says you cant Get real benefits with his method without a tb12 muscle coach. So if I use a roller at home it just wont do it. I Wish there was a way for as people who cannot visit and pay a tb12 coach to have the same benefits.

[@matthewmcgibney9489]

Tom Brady says he doesn’t have a lot of hobbies but apparently he likes yoga

[@warrenbuggles9078]

If all of us could be doing half the things that he'll still be doing when he's fifty, then I say Yoga sure likes him too.

[@bluntforcetraumass1063]

Matthew McGibney what a cookie cutter

[@MattGarcyaDC]

He would probably consider that apart of his flexibility training

[@redfirebonus9408]

He also said on men’s health in 2019 he doesn’t hit weights that much

[@hudsonhaverford1319]

TB 12 is for older guys who cant or do not want to risk high impact injuries and chance busting their asses while running, playing sports, or doing crossfit. Brady has lasted so long because he does not run out of the pocket, gets rid of the ball in 2.5 seconds, and flops down onto the turf if he sees a rush coming. I tried TB12 and was not that impressed.

[@ericmontiel3234]

Go watch the Falcons Super Bowl. They were hitting him up all day and he didn't get hurt. How about the gash in his hand he beat the Jags with? He knows how to have his body recover well. You don't need to be impressed, I think the 6 time super Bowl champion is gonna keep doing what works better than anyone else.

[@jasonhurbon4184]

For how long two days lol , he had been doing it for years,

[@Darkslayers_son]

I definitely was, lost 100 lbs with the book

[@zairmorningstarmusic]

Uchiha Prince damn

[@fleadoggreen9062]

Won me some money against Green Bay , thanks brady

[@noyou113]

Same lol.. and against the chiefs

[@Lundahlium]

He looks taller than 6ft4 too

[@dannylegg7767]

Eureka Opium Yeah. When I was at their training camp. He got like 10 feet away from me, I'm 6ft and he looks so much taller than me compared to other people I know that are 6'4

[@Lundahlium]

Even behind his O-line he always seems to be taller

[@jaredwatson9146]

Yea he's atleast 6'5

[@zairmorningstarmusic]

Fr

[@redfirebonus9408]

@@dannylegg7767 he’s got a thin figure hence the illusion he’s taller

[@stevenscummy1458]

5 years, next season will be 5. I hope to see him play for more years though

[@RamBo-we9ii]

This aged well.

[@bryanharrison7847]

Tom seems to think resistance bands are better than free weights for pliability and flexibility. Either method involves resistance. How the heck does the muscle know the difference. Bands are safer and more portable but free weights are more sporting and rewarding! Imo.

[@jokerwe]

Damnit 4 years!

[@heff434]

Hard to argue after seeing the results

[@TDace25]

Pliability is king

[@khol3167]

[@marksymbala1193]

Additional exercises involve deflating footballs

5yrs is up!

[@gingerhunter3150]

Yup. And he walked…

[@andrewstuart8736]

As an exercise scientist a 40 year old should always be faster than your 18 year old self, it's your fault if you decline because you stop. Don't stop.

[@andrewstuart8736]

And at 18 you haven't stopped growing and are nowhere near your peak. Otherwise pro sports would be full of 18 year olds and it's not because you're still a kid. 28 was the old Peak but it's different for everyone but you should be faster than you were every year until you are in your early 40's

[@landlubber42069]

James Harrison method > Alex Guerrero BS

[@mslay-ultra1802]

Yes, steroids and HGH work miracles.

[@landlubber42069]

Steroids, test and HEAVY LIFTING

[@jeremymiller5545]

People barely hit him thats why he doesn’t get injured lol, he’s super protected by the refs. This workout method is a normal warm up for a lot of people before they hit the weights. Prevent muscle tears, cramps, flexibility, etc. the more stretching the better. Specially lower body, as you use your legs for everything, where most your power comes from. Diets important in everything, and a lot factors into your diet. How active you are, what you’re doing, how your metabolism is, getting healthy foods, not everyone is the same. Person A can eat 1 time a day and gain muscle barely doing anything, person B can work his ass off and have to eat a ton to gain, person C can eat everything under the sun and not get fat. Some people hurt themselves by stressing to much about what they’re eating and working out. It’s not rocket science it’s rather easy, research, trial and error, for what works best for you individually, good genes.

[@Darkslayers_son]

He gets hit all the time, even a complete buffoon can see that

[@judgedredd2199]

7x super bowl****

[@orasis]

My god... I cannot get over how goofy this guy is. Great player... but once that uniform comes off... I don't know he's just goofy..

[@logosflesh]

Gives hope for you

[@rogergoodell2785]

orasis Could you elaborate on how he is goofy? He does almost sound like Tom Cruise but what Brady says is actually true. Nothing wrong with living a healthy lifestyle. You probably fat, lazy, and broke...and you probably drink way too much and think you are the man.

[@warrenbuggles9078]

If I had success, money and a Supermodel wife I'd be as goofy as I want to be.

[@thegeneral6610]

Acts like a girl

Save your money this is a huge scam

[@nicholas4687]

[@orasis]

You do not need to buy anything but the book, everyone knows that. Also, I do not think you understand what 'scam' means. Just because something is overpriced does not mean it is a scam. Tom Brady's company will send the promised product to you if you choose to buy it, so, not a scam - dumb-ass.

[@orasis]

And even then, the book exists - therefore not a scam. Will you become Tom Brady? No. Can his diet and exercise plan improve your health? Most likely. --- Scam means "I'm selling a product that does not exist".

[@bksg4ming]

orasis You can get huge and shredded just by eating garbage if you eat a certain amount, as long as you workout. It just won't be healthy because you won't be getting proper micronutrients.

[@davidespinoza310]

I’m gay for Tom

[@emanpaul9995]

You mean 6x SB Champ

[@684avatar]

Just retire already Tom you’ve done enough already 😭

[@gingerhunter3150]

He did

[@alvindiaz6749]

The deflates footballs to make easy throws

[@warrenbuggles9078]

With hands as big as his, he doesn't need deflated footballs.

[@alvindiaz6749]

He has been busted for deflated football's in the past at least once

[@garyanderson8582]

And no other QB has done something like that?

[@jasonhurbon4184]

Man you people are so stupid, the colts started to cry cus they where getting beat , so they came up with that , and then even when the ref gave Brady a different ball , the pats beat them even more lol

[@Darkslayers_son]

@@jasonhurbon4184 They started using regular balls in the second half, and he did better without the ones that were deflated, you also have to take in account that it was freezing that night, and the cold can cause air to leave the ball Just a bunch of haters
