Redskins open voluntary offseason workouts with focus on conditioning

The two-month offseason workout program that will carry the Washington Redskins into training camp began on Monday with two weeks of strength and conditioning training and, according to two players, nearly everybody in attendance.

The voluntary program, held at Redskins Park in Ashburn, allows players to prepare for individual instruction beginning on May 4. Until then, they are not allowed to receive instruction or even supervision from position coaches and are able to do football-related drills on their own, provided they’re not wearing pads or helmets.

On Monday, it also served as a chance for players to acquaint themselves with new strength and conditioning coach Mike Clark, who was hired by the Redskins in January.
