49ers’ Christian McCaffrey breaks down viral workout that’s turning heads
“Those are called animal movements,” McCaffrey shared. “I actually got these from a bunch of UFC fighters way back in the day, and it’s a cool way to do a lot of strength through full range of motion and flexibility exercises to kind of prep your joints in weird angles that you’re not used to doing. And so, those are really challenging, really fun.”
He emphasized that the exercises go beyond traditional strength and conditioning.
“It’s kind of taking the linear strength and conditioning aspect of training and putting it into more of a global athletic movement, learning how to fall, learning how to roll, using your body at different angles,” McCaffrey added.
“And they get really challenging and really fun. There’s a lot of people who I’ve learned them from, who do them a lot better than me, but I have a lot of fun doing it. So, yeah, that was part of it.”

49ers draft buzz: Daniel Jeremiah says Malachi Lawrence could fix pass rush
“When you talk about guys who fit that scheme, you’ve got to feel their juice off the edge, and (Lawrence), he brings that,” Jeremiah said during a conference call on Tuesday. “The run (stopping) stuff, he’s got to get a little better. There’s times he gets stuck at the point of attack. He needs to improve.
“But if you told me Malachi Lawrence, you could handpick him to play in one defense, I’d send him to San Francisco.”
…He… stood out at the NFL Scouting Combine, posting a 4.52-second 40-yard dash, a 40-inch vertical jump, and a 10-foot-10 broad jump while measuring 6-foot-4, 253 pounds.
“(Lawrence is) built to play in that attack front that they use,” Jeremiah said. “Kocurek would love this type of a player. Just line him up wide and let him go.”
