Tyrone joint-manager Feargal Logan expects to welcome a squad of supremely fit footballers to tonight’s opening training session at Garvaghey.

It will be a first opportunity for the new bosses to work with the players, nearly five months after his appointment, along with Brian Dooher, as successors to Mickey Harte.

With just four weeks to get their men up to the pace of top-level competition, the timeline is tight.

Lockdown programmes have been designed with a purpose by strength and conditioning coach Peter Donnelly, and those seemingly endless weeks of lonely maintenance of the body’s power and athleticism will make sense upon contact with the training pitch.

“In our days, you went to training to get fit, but now you come to training fit, and then you can knuckle in to all the rest of the stuff,” said Logan (inset).
