Now, I still get excited, but I m not quite as tired afterwards.<BR><BR>How many BFS clinics have you given?<BR><BR>You first have to understand that August through November I seldom do any clinics because of football. During the rest of the year I try to get in one every third week. So, over the last six years, we re talking about 80 clinics.<BR><BR>Why do you still feel so enthusiastic about running BFS clinics?<BR><BR>For one thing, I still feel that I m a rookie because I m only six years into it. But then, as a teacher I m in my twenty-sixth year, and I still get excited every day getting up and going to work!<BR><BR>Would you share with us a favorite clinic experience?<BR><BR>I m always talking about keeping your eye on your target. I gave a clinic to a team in Flambeau, Wisconsin. They were 3-6, and after the BFS clinic they went on to the championships. The next year when I came in again, one of the boys who had been at that earlier clinic told me,  You know, Coach, I ve got to tell you about that  eye on the target thing. When we went for that State championship game we took our helmets off, and the other team didn t. We just kept staring right at them, but they wouldn t look back - they d look down, look up, and back down again. After the coin toss we said,  We re going to kick their butts because they couldn t even look us in the eye they were so scared. <BR><BR>What s the best aspect of the BFS program - what sets it apart?<BR><BR>It s the emphasis on record keeping, because it makes it so much fun for the kids to see themselves getting better.<BR><BR>How has your coaching staff and your school responded to the BFS program?<BR><BR>Most of my staff has either played for me or coached with me, going as far back as the early  80s. They ve known about BFS for a long time, and they re into all of it. And our whole school is involved with BFS - it s part of the curriculum.<BR><BR>How does your school implement the BFS program in the curriculum?<BR><BR>The coaches teach the BFS program and they use the videos. It s like putting on a clinic, but you only have an hour. A clinic lasts eight hours, so it takes about eight class periods to teach everything and teach it correctly. They don t lift for about two weeks. The kids are so antsy after that they just can t wait to get son that this has happened. We now have a uniform program that everyone is following. That program is BFS. The other is the fact that all of the coaches in the system now buy into the program. They have seen the results that our basketball and football program have had and believe that BFS has had something to do with it. <br>About their athletes tremendous strength gains, Coach Scott Robertson excitedly proclaims,  New records are being broken by both our male and female athletes each testing period. We also have the weight room open after school each day for 2 hours and only the BFS system is allowed. We have excellent numbers participating including approximately thirty 8th graders who have already bought in and are getting a jump on their competition. We also have the weight room open 6 hours per day during the summer and it is supervised by a variety of coaches on a volunteer basis. <br>Allegan High School has experienced and will continue to experience some amazing results just from the one change of unifying their program. Their future looks better than it ever has before with their program growing like wildfire and their athletes lifting more than ever. Their story is summed up with this quote from Coach Rose,  I am in my 18th year teaching and coaching. I have never seen the interest or physical development among student athletes at the level it is currently at. I see the  average athlete reaching the higher levels of success. <br>Don t let the old  different is better way of thinking, pride, fear or whatever it may be,Ib'P< 55 p<f2=VvNi*Bd`BI&d)ûZ,mQ%Ɍx֫FSV#"gm[نU6?kš$ Kd*,{r:tQ#TM=U,)'LC%VMBܙu@'Whoƫ*"gb8Dm'u'XW̊,K$1ispI,V5TbIZ>qЀ0V1ȸ1
