The Earth Times reported today that John Lannan is in the midst of an extreme offseason workout regiment with professional athletic trainer Dean Maddalone. The owner of 'Professional Athletic Performance' will be presenting Lannan and their success in the 2009 National Strength and Conditioning Sports Specific Training Conference in Nashville Tennessee.
"From the first day of our 12 week program we noticed an intensity usually reserved for guys who are trying to make a team or add years to their career," says Dean on Lannan's work ethic."The last thing I want to think about in later innings is fatigue and the trainers at Performance have taught me how to prepare. I have never felt this good in my life," said Lannan.
John Lannan is slated to be the teams ace this year after an excellent rookie season in 2008. While many in the Nationals circuit believe Lannan has what it takes to be a true Major League ace, few scouts from other organizations see him more than a number 3 starter on a division one team. Hopefully for Lannan, and the Nationals, this hard work ethic will just be used to shut the doubters up, and Lannan will be dominant yet again on the mound in 2009.
