If all he does is be able to switch up to 5 positions, hit open threes, and do athletic garbage man stuff he’s going to be a real nice player. That is an outcome totally within reach.

100 % be curious to see how he's been able to build the lower half of his body by next season

I think he can do that and add in some nice roll man stuff maybe. Please just give us a healthy season next year so we can see what we have.

A question from my own ignorance: how many players are out there do you all know that have significantly built up the lower half of their bodies? While I don't doubt that there are some positive things that can be done with lower bodies, my immediate thought is that it's much easier to become big up top from a relative lack of definition there, than to turn skinny legs into not skinny legs.

Well it just takes high resistance biking if you really want to bulk up in your quads (as informed by me going up lots of hills on bikes on my mission and busting out of my pant-legs eventually and buying new pants.)

Yeah, if you dont have any kind of resistance training history that can happen.

That's kind of the situation I was thinking about, but with the reverse conclusion.

I'm not much of an athlete at all, but I've been a much better biker than many people, I think, at times in my life. But biking has never done much to leave me with anything but skinny-ish legs. (Again, not trying to deny any value to working on your body; just wondering whether we can ever expect to see anything except skinny legs from Cody.)

Of course I started at around 260 chasing my runt companion up hills, in a high resistance gear (ended up busting a couple cranks with the pressure I was putting on them) so I could keep up. I have a disproportionately large upper body (30 inseam w/a 6’2” body) so my quads completely blew up in size. If you’re skinny I’m guessing you never could achieve the resistance necessary to build bulk.

Oh and this was a pretty sturdy/heavy mountain bike in the 90s so the bike wasn’t light either…
