Hudy spent the 2020-21 and 2019-2020 seasons leading the University of Texas strength and conditioning programs for its men’s and women’s basketball teams. In March 2020, universities all across the country shut down and students returned home to quarantine during the first months of the pandemic. When college teams were allowed to bring student-athletes back on campus, Hudy asked the Texas men’s basketball players to look at their step trackers on their phones to compare what they did pre-pandemic and during the lockdown. “I said, ‘OK, look at [B]February 15, how many steps did you have[/B]?’ And they looked at their phones and their [B]15,000[/B] steps. And that was walking to and from classes on campus and we would practice and lift,” Hudy said. “[B]Then shoot forward to July[/B], whenever we got back on campus ... and they had like [B]2,000[/B]. So, you're talking about miles were missed just being a normal human being. Posture was missed because people were lying down on their couches.” Getting back into proper strength and conditioning form took time for student-athletes all across the country — both at the high school and college levels."[/I] [/QUOTE]
