Nearly 1,000 female Texas Football fans now have a better idea what it's like to participate in a Longhorns practice.
Head coach Charlie Strong held his second annual women's clinic -- Sweatin' with Strong -- on Saturday.
The five-hour clinic, which was presented by St. David's HealthCare, was part demonstration, but mostly centered around on-field drills for 950 women of all ages.
Following 90 minutes of presentations by coaches and staff, and a player question-and-answer session inside Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, the group took to the hot and steamy field for approximately three hours.
Each one of the assistant coaches was in charge of a drill, which was compatible to his position. In addition, the women ran the stadium stairs and were put through a brief workout in the weight room with football strength coach Pat Moorer and his staff. The women were split into 13 groups with each rotating through the stations.
The clinic had a 1980's theme and many of the participants were dressed workout gear from that era with prizes awarded for the best outfits.
Here's a recap of the day on social media:
