The NFL Scouting Combine is not just an opportunity for NFL teams to evaluate upcoming draft prospects -- but a big way for private trainers to profit from preparing their players. Peter Bommarito, president and founder of Bommarito Performance Systems, a South Florida-based training facility, explains how he prepares players for the combine and what the event means to his business. With stiff competition from hundreds of trainers who train for the combine, Bommarito breaks down how he convinces agents to make a significant investment in using his facility. Plus, Bommarito reveals how the private athlete training business has changed since the 2011 NFL lockout, a time when all NFL players were forced to use private trainers.
