If you were to look at any of the girls we have, you d be amazed if I wer to tell you they re powerlifters, comments Mach. <br>There was no rest in sight as the club headed next to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for the National High School meet. Audrey Karbowski won her second consecutive title, while Stevie Cross and Amy Seebruck each placed third in their divisions. With this excellent showing, the Necedah girls-and-boys combined team was able to pull off a fourth-place finish.<br>The future of girls powerlifting and athletics in general look great at Necedah. Under the BFS philosophy, coaches and athletes are working hard to improve mentally and physically. The numbers in powerlifting and sports continue to increase as students become aware of the positive value of this program. Although the bar has been set high, more and more athletes are meeting, exceeding, and loving the challenge that BFS and powerlifting provide them. t room having only lifted for one school year, however, she has responded well and has grown into an aggressive, dedicated athlete. She has lettered in Volleyball and Basketball both years of high school. Leslie added Softball to her resume of athletics during the 1997/98 school year. She has a 75 lb. snatch, a 165 lb. squat, a 110 lb. clean, and an 85 lb. bench.<br>Freshman Sandy Henderson, at 5' 2" and 128 lbs., is the shortest lifter but by no means the weakest. Sandy has prospered greatly due to weight training. In one school year on the BFS program, Sandy has a 75 lb. snatch, a 105 lb. bench, a 200 lb. squat, and a 120 lb. clean.<br>"For the first time in eleven years," explains Coach McGee, " our volleyball team advanced to the state regionals. All of the heavy hitters are on this program. This training has greatly impst Dr. Mel Siff, who did his Ph.D. thesis on the biomechanics of soft tissues. According to Siff, the basic activities that occur in most sports, such as running and jumping, "can impose far higher forces on the body than are encountered in weightlifting." Thus, if you tell athletes they can't do lifts such as the power clean because of ballistic loading, then you should likewise tell them not to play sports, period. And if you tell athletes never to lift weights overhead as in a push press or jerk, then you should not allow them to throw footballs or baseballs either.<br>Siff also emphasizes that the danger of weightlifting prematurely closing the growth plates of young girls is exaggerated, since running and jumping can impose even greater loads on the bones and joints. If we were to take this myth seriously, then we would have to restrict all girls and boys to walking and swimming!<br>Another factor not considered by the slow-training proponents is that Olympic lifting can help prevent injuries by properly developing the nervous system. Siff b job with that little school from Ash Fork, Arizona. As his athletes continue to push the limits, they will pioneer a standard of excellence to be followed by all. Coach McGee says, "Several articles in previous BFS magazines served as motivators for my students. They anxiously await the next subscription so they can compare themselves to the athletes in that magazine. Now that we are in your fall edition I'm sure that other schools will use us as an impetus to join the growing ranks of weight lifters around the country." May we follow the example of these dedicated girls and beat the odds.</title?_O*yL-VF e%7/$|[W/L92Q3@#X5BGOޑ헁l/ <%xuG殿gdX6൐A5l,6vx$1I4 9M竈fm3fUrQu\Q|"69]6(3cerzI=JA&?1.㱌cվ'~̓ŇSC1 [ w-呂NAdwDZi z)."힌S!uz֨DDV($QƯƊC&"}S?"{'~d RXe?Hōq;h35LCL^N@ZZI#U~dNm괇PBׄ1O"x.S.&[J.q޹gv_ƫ+(t`ªA{ŋ[Z=3v6lRdP*g*qukh @0POs,7o`豠bI~TE=r7~o<d?VOޠ4A|Lz_lEPJcZ4pȡUmˊ9#s2&~Dc|_k ;E6DW7TI RQRаaM^[kV8;Ri8 =+xn'{lD%z JWa)-00?#$^^G%4(Bje!`U;,\~F 'Y\ghCgBg[ʇ/?{mDK|[ߊpA˹lЅm ͒蛈/TECl~+'9Sx]߰ᇏ'G﷘$^*rl;pF~%x?!^զI-omND{[v_2+*o21~?bQW+WT撀=Hؼm.C~&« y-Xక,Ֆ"@r]UMO׷^lV$>d(PӞ*G.8Z/5oR]Nx`"6;Ķ$x?^e[&D(x٦ICU23iɪ[oYt瓉HI3WAqhg߄a<=}vxb^_;2w;OҚՖu40rJeRH7yd Xܣ;~ `"oRᘀhqf iEC{-X˕<)ar禝>M8(2O?Am&]R\^F7O+V6Ë sy'!R$g~\oxN#b[K֒O+Aa$ɇz\KJGXoS4!^m}Xʽ-Ǧ(gf9oJ?1H@!K=F`yH𧨕dESϏ?9¼~g[SjVf̼?
