Babe Ruth's physical training program

In the Winter of 1925, Ruth realized he was a physical wreck. His weight had "balloned" to 254 and his performance that season reflected the
poor physical condition that he was in. That winter, Ruth started a rigorous physical training regimen at Artie McGovern's New York City gym.

By the start of the 1926 season, Ruth had lost 44 lbs and was as fit as he was when in his young 20's. Ruth continued this physical training for
the remainder of his BB career, and it really paid off for him. From 1926 - 1935, Ruth's performance actually exceeded that of his first 11 years.
This is evident when comparing his stats for these last 10 years with his previous year's stats.
