Brett Romberg Talks About Workouts at the U

Rams center Brett Romberg, who sat out seven games last season because of injuries to both ankles, actually suggested installing a sand pit to the Rams' strength and conditioning staff.

Romberg attended the University of Miami and has been using a 60-yard sand pit at the Hurricanes' complex this offseason along with former college teammate Jeremy Shockey, the tight end for the New York Giants.

"After we work out, we're in the sand box," Romberg said. "We're doing jumps and sprints and explosive stuff. At Miami, I couldn't remember a high ankle sprain. So I do feel that the sand pit strengthens the ankles. Especially when you go in there with bare feet. ... It makes a difference. I highly recommend the sand pit."
