More quotes by Troy Polamalu
I really enjoy surfing a lot. It's an awesome sport. With surfing there are no mind games versus Peyton Manning, or versus anyone else. It's not me trying to throw a certain shot put further - or to put a ball in a hoop, it's just me against mother nature.

I work barefooted on balance plates. I do explosive squats on balance surfaces that your body has to use muscles it's not used to. It's all kinds of exercises that your body isn't really used to, and it tricks your body into getting stronger every time.

Football is pretty much played 16 times a year, where training is kind of a year-round thing.

Orthodox chanting is non-emotional, it's very monotone.
Troy Polamalu
I don't think I have a split personality. I believe the same person I am on the field is the same person I am at home - passionate about everything I do, whether it's reading a Bible or just hanging out with my wife.
Troy Polamalu
The barefoot component of my training is about strengthening the toes.

I take pride in my life-my wife, my family. I try my best not to have football define the person that I am.

Being patient ... and not becoming too stressed out over the big plays, those are the things to remember.

I've never thought about the end of my career. I've had this growing motto in my life to live day to day - and when you live day to day, it's hard to talk years.
