EDUCATE YOUR FAMILY 

From their early years, Thomas' and Julius' parents, Thomas and Betty Jones stressed the importance of exercise, diet and determination.

BUILD A SUPPORT GROUP

Thomas and Julius know the importance of the support of family and friends. Being each others best friend has always been a priority to the brothers. Their family has stuck with them through tough times on-and-off the field. Their parents and siblings have always been there for them.

NUTRITION PLAYS A KEY ROLE IN SUCCESS

Eat a balanced diet. Especially avoid foods that hamper your endurance. The brothers try to eat low amounts of carbohydrates and eliminate as much sugar from their diets as possible.

NO PAIN, NO GAIN

Exercise and sticking to a regiment helps develop physical and mental toughness. "Whether it's a running back or anyone else trying to succeed at something, you really have to work at it if you want to become as good as you expect to be."
