Cardio work was also implemented, which involved a regular running routine. He has dropped from 256 pounds to 235 and is eating healthier. Much of Heyward's offseason was spent getting his mind where it needs to be for the upcoming season. At the start of the offseason, he went back to the basics of his swing with his personal hitting coach, C.J. Stewart. 'I was working on my stance, working on my load,' Heyward said.

Hitting coach Greg Walker and assistant Scott Fletcher have fixed some mechanical issues that Heyward was dealing with when he dealt with a sore right shoulder last season. One adjustment he has made has been with the way the bat sits in his hands. Heyward is now keeping his bat more vertical while maintaining a loose grip as opposed to letting his bat lean back like he had it last year.
