Texans pay first official visits to revamped weight room

<em>Posted by ESPN.com's Paul Kuharsky</em> <p>Like the Jaguars, the Texans opened their offseason conditioning program Monday under a new strength and conditioning coach.</p> <p>Brooke Bentley of Texans.com talked to several players about the new approach under Ray Wright for <a href="http://www.houstontexans.com/tv/index.asp?mm_file_id=3094" target="_blank">this piece</a> on Texans TV - just click play on the screen on the left of the page.</p> <p>Houston and Jacksonville seem to be moving in similar direction in terms of training - with an emphasis on flexibility and a move away from machines.</p> <p>Bentley reports yoga's going to be part of the program and that right tackle Eric Winston's gotten a head start. Lots of teams have been incorporating it for some time, and the benefits of flexibility and balance show up in all sorts of football situations.</p> <p>Still, watching big guys in the early stages has to be amusing. Our challenge to Bentley: Get a camera into one of those sessions and provide us some video of linemen, complete with the laugh track from the skill position guys.</p>
