Thomson in favour of Jefferies' methods
Full-back Craig Thomson feels Hearts are in good shape under Jim Jefferies after lacking fitness during the previous regime.
Jefferies and assistant Billy Brown guided Hearts into the top six of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League after taking over from Csaba Laszlo in January.
The veteran management pair have set about ensuring Hearts start better this year by arranging regular fitness sessions during the close season and now putting their players through their paces in the 30C heat and altitude of Tuscany.
Thomson told Hearts TV: "It is enjoyable, but hard work at the same time, but that is what it is all about.
"I don't think we were fit enough at the start of last season. I am sure it will be different, it is already."
