Good thing I saw Twitter on your post, was gonna post it too. The Big Ticket's lookin' gooo-oood!
So….. he walked 100 ft carrying 135 lbs in each hand. 6’7’’ 360 and 22 yrs old….. I‘m 5’10’’ 215 and I can walk 100 ft with 100 lbs in each hand (no wrist wraps) …. And I’m 60 …. Sorry not impressed.
Good on you. I dead lifted and walked across a room, down a hall, and up a flight of stairs carrying 100lbs in one hand and 200lbs in the other. I was 5'6" 230-240 lbs at the time. I wouldn't diminish Becton's effort though.
@Greentilldeath you are so wrong not like this was the first exercise of the day. was the only one I was able to upload. this was his fifth or sixth exercise when was already exhausted I guarantee this what he puts himself throughout each day you would not last one.
Physical on top of physical activities wear on the body and this exercise after he was already spent is trying. You wanted proof and I try to provide as much as I can and you still bitching. Maybe you need to go for a day and watch him live, and when he is done tell him you are NOT impressed then.

I usually do Farmer walks with 100 in each hand as part of my condition sessions. Its much harder when physically tired. We also don't know if thats the most that gym has. Its not like all gyms carry 200lb dumbells since a very small % would be using them and they are extremely expensive. He looks like he is putting in the work like he gets paid to do. Just be in shape when training camp starts, stay in shape throughout the season and stay healthy. I won't be happy until he does that which he hasn't shown the ability to do yet. I'm glad he is doing what is expected of him, but his problem is probably not training its pushing away from the dinner table. My hope is he comes back stronger this season and maintains it and then becomes a 10 year starter, but so far he has proven the Jets need to have a plan B.
short term George Fant who proved he can be that guy.
Guys…. It’s just MY opinion. I was woefully disappointed in Becton last year and that hasn’t changed. I realize his injury was not his fault, but him turning a 6 -8 week injury into a season ending injury because of his conditioning was. How if he comes into camp in shape and dominates…. then I will happily eat crow on this… but if he gets whipped like a mule again, then we have a problem. Gotta think the CS is monitoring this closely, and their picks next month will indicate their level of confidence in him
problem is someone asked to see him working out and that is what I did post live updates when I can get media to post, now that I am showing him not only working out but looking in shape still bitching.
Hopefully, he'll be better than his rookie year....we need him to be!
Connor Hughes says Becton wont be doing much at OTA’s …….awesome .
Rumors of Beckton in shape last year was funny and it showed. Look we need him to pull up his big boy pants and be mean out there and if he doesnt come into camp in shape and show it ,then Ill bet money Jets cut him this year or next. To bad he was great in first season.
Connor Hughes is taking the words out of HC Saleh's presser.
Hughes loves to make it seems he knows what is going on but like the other beat writers he can only say what is said.
Saleh has not been in touch with Becton, so his statement is just that.
Strength and Conditioning coaches at this point have been in contact with Mekhi Becton's trainer but during the off season coaches and players rarely communicate which is a part of the collective bargaining agreement so don't read too much into this.
Well….. if the strength and conditioning guys have been in contract with Bectons trainer, and the trainer gave him a green light to fully participate, then Saleh should know that, and if its vice versa, he should know that also. If Saleh mentioned in his presser that Becton wont be doing much, then I would think that’s coming from his trainer via the Strength and conditioning guys. Seems logical……. If his knee is a little balky still, but he is in decent shape…that’s understandable. If the knee is good, but the conditioning isn’t, that a problem
the strength and conditioning coaches get figures they are not in direct contact. so any information is strictly data not conversational points. so no reason for the team to relay anything to Saleh. And under the collective bargaining agreement if Saleh makes any statement saying he has in person knowledge of where Becton is in his rehab and conditioning not only he himself but the organization could be fined.
seriously are you all new Jets fans, when have the beat writers spoke since Joe Douglas has knitted things up. Come on no one knew about the Tyreek Hill situation until the very end and then they were shitting on us without knowing the details. So how now them making quotes on a press conference give you anything but them spewing their own take to get more clicks. geez, just enough already.
and of all the questions asked why did they not ask more about Mekhi, because they knew he could not answer what he did not know.
