o how has Brady, in a league where hits are likened to car crashes, stayed healthy? "I have no doubt that Tom Brady's ability to recover is due to his lifestyle health," says Fergus Connolly, football performance director for Brady's alma mater, the University of Michigan. Connolly, who served as the San Francisco 49ers director of performance under Jim Harbaugh, believes that maintaining a healthy lifestyle diet, sleep, strength, flexibility and spiritual/cognitive resilience is critical in a long NFL career.
"You can't survive in the NFL without giving lifestyle an emphasis," says Connolly, who just completed a soon-to-be-published book on sports science titled Game Change, "and for a long career it has to be all aspects." In that sense, Brady's longevity is more than just luck. His all-encompassing approach to the variables that he can control has made Brady the master of his own destiny, making his desire to play into his mid-40s all the more realistic.
