South Carolina head football coach Steve Spurrier turns 70 on Monday.

In what's become a tradition at Columbia's The State newspaper, Josh Kendall, joined the Ole Ball coach for a spirited workout.

"He does two sets of shoulder presses with barbells. Fifty with 15-pounders and 40 with 10-pounders. He does 200 shoulder shrugs with 30-pound barbells, two long sets of curls, 50 tricep extensions with a 25-pound barbell (I think it was 25 pounds; oxygen depletion may have affected my memory.) There are 100 toe raises with the 30-pound barbells; 22 minutes on the treadmill; 11 minutes on the stationary bike at a not-insignificant incline."

Forget his awkward golf swing, Spurrier is a beast and is probably in better shape than when he won the Heisman.
