But someone had to be first. In 1976, the Dallas Cowboys and Pro Football Hall of Fame head coach Tom Landry hired Dr. Bob Ward and told him to go to work. Part of the aura of the Dallas Cowboys was to be ahead of the curve, which made hiring Ward a natural step forward. No one could have predicted that Ward would become the key figure in revolutionizing how athletes prepare and train for generations to come. Ward believed in analytics long before Moneyball made them synonymous with sports. He saw the value in computers and technology in sports before the two became linked. Ward believes real strength is total, "Every component is involved in human performance. Strength alone is not enough." 538 System requirements: Adobe Digital editions. 588 0 Online resource; title from landing page (Freading, viewed December 11, 2015). 600 10 Ward, Robert D.,|d1933- 610 20 Dallas Cowboys (Football team) 650 0 Football coaches|vBiography. 650 7 BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Sports.|2bisacsh 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 Engel, Mac,|eauthor. 700 1 White, Randy,|ewriter of foreword. 776 08 |cOriginal|z9780996194440|w(CtWfDGI)frd00007233 914 frd00007233
