After suffering a left groin injury during his senior season at Oklahoma State, then hurting his right groin after making his first CFL start in Toronto s 19 season opener, Richards felt he needed to lose weight and improve his flexibility. The 26-year-old native of Kingston, Jamaica, who grew up in Calgary, said the combination of diet and adding boxing to his training regiment helped him shed the excess pounds. That was the thought process of it, drop weight so I could improve my flexibility and then build back up to a proper base, which is roughly around 310 pounds, Richards said during a videoconference Tuesday. I m not far off, there are just little things I have to tweak with my diet as far as protein and carb intake.
