""His whole body was imbalanced from basically his shoulder blades down to his feet," Reavy says. "He was developing a lot of back problems ... He was developing strength in an imbalanced fashion" This is/was one of my concerns about Oden. His upper body last year was huge compared to his lower body, which can lead to things like balance problems and such. Hard to deny how clumsy Greg looked at times last year.
That wasn't entirely Greg's fault. He wasn't allowed to do serious leg work until 05/2009. Expect to see a more proportioned Greg next year. Also, he was doing Pilates and other core strengthening exercises, they just wouldn't let him do squats or serious leg work.
That's true, although at the same time, they shouldn't have let him bulk up so much in his upper body then. On the other hand, maybe he just couldn't help it, him being a physically still maturing 20-year-old.
