NFL Referee Ed Hochuli Set to Make Return, Twitter Explains His WorkoutsThere's nothing better than watching NFL referee Ed Hochuli explain a flag on a Sunday. Not because of the penalty though, but becuase you get the pleasure of watching him flex his muscles.

Not only is Hochuli one of the best and most well-respected officials in the league, he's also in the best shape.

With an agreement between the NFL and their regular referees set in stone, we no longer have to watch the "Hochuli wannabees" prancing down the field and making absurd calls.

No referee's — replacement or regular — physique is even close to that of Hochuli's and NESN asked Twitter about what he does to get those muscles. Check out some of the responses below.
