How?s your offseason going? Kirk Hinrich: It?s been good. Basically with my weights and conditioning, I just want to come in and get stronger and gain some weight. It?s got to be good weight, though?I?m trying to keep my body fat the same. I want to get better and these are the kinds of things that will definitely help me become a better player. Editor?s Note: Hinrich has gained just over five pounds of muscle this offseason, checking in at a fit 196 pounds. According to Bulls? Strength and Conditioning Coach Erik Helland, he?s also added some significant lower body strength as he focuses on increasing his speed and explosive power. What?s a typical workout session like for you? Hinrich: I usually get to the Berto Center anywhere from 9 to 10:30. I start with my weight workout and that usually takes an hour to an hour and 15 minutes. It?s a lot of weights, both upper and lower body, then some running and speed work, and then I usually get on the court for anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour. Sometimes it?s longer than that. I?m trying to groove my shot and work on a few things that I want to improve on.</div> FULL ARTICLE
