Nelson thought Poliquin might be able to take him to an even higher level. <br>Because Nelson is relatively light for a shot-putter, much of Poliquin s early preparatin was designed to increase Nelson s bodyweight. About Nelson s previous attempts to add weight, Poliquin commented,  He always did try, but he had a hard time doing it. According to Poliquin, in seven years of testing athletes he s seen only one who had what he would consider a  normal system. Nelson was not that one, as testing by Poliquin s team of doctors discovered that a specific bacterium called proteus mirabilis was affecting Nelson's digestive system, especially his ability to assimilate protein. <br>Within three months he gained 25 pounds of solid muscle and even decreased his body fat by five percent. Nelson says his goal is to add another 15 pounds of muscle before the Olympics.  I thought I was overtraining or just stressed out, says Nelson.  Once we corrected that problem, everything went back into place again. I have more energy for training and I ve gotten so much stronger this year. <br>Another priority in Nelson s training was developing muscular balance to prevent injuries.  Adam s current training didn t address muscular balance, so we worked a lot of antagonist muscles to the shot put, says Poliquin.  We did a lot of chin-ups, fat bar work, nd a ot of work with partial movements, bands and lifting chains.  One reason that lifting chains work so well is they are one of the few methods that can improve both explosive power and maximal strength at the same time. Adds Nelson,  Chains force you to continually push yourself to accelerate though the lift,eel bar from this 2-3 inch space will cause the athlete to bruise his neck or shoulders.&nbsp; Besides hurting, it is unlikely the athlete will have the bar placed on his shoulders correctly.</P> <P align=left>On the other end of the spectrum, I've seen athletes wimp a bar offthe rack.&nbsp; Many times this athlete will not be in a good solid squatting position as he backs up to a ready stance.</P> <P align=left>A far superior way is to come under the bar in a great solid proper power position, making sure everything i correct.&nbsp; Get the bar in the groove on your shoulders.&nbsp; Look straight ahead.&nbsp; Spread the chest.&nbsp;Get in your athletic stance. Now, this next technique point is most critical.&nbsp; Get your athletic stance directly under the bar.&nbsp; Many athletes will stand&nbsp;a foot back and lean forward.&nbsp; This is asking for tro#(F@_N^PSPpVxmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> BFS Magazine Archives
