The Facts: Last year, it was cheese (and other dairy products). This year, Rodgers has cut back on his golf. The QB made both decisions with one thing in mind: to make sure he's in the best condition possible to play at his peak level for as long as possible. "It's fun to be 33 and feel like I'm in the best shape I've been in starting an offseason program," Rodgers said.
Diehards Line:
Rodgers on Tuesday said he hit his target weight -- under 220 pounds -- when the Packers reported for the first day of their offseason workouts. "That’s exciting," Rodgers added. "That was kind of the goal I wanted to hit and just keeping moving forward in that direction.” It was in June of last year when Rodgers revealed the changes he made in his diet. He said at the time that he was at his lowest weight -- “218-ish” pounds, he said -- since 2007, when HC Mike McCarthy made him report for training camp at under 217. At this time last year, Rodgers was just three months removed from offseason knee surgery. He dealt with a nagging calf injury again late last season but will be ready to roll for the start of OTAs this season.
