The primary lifts are the Squat and Clean. Coach Schmidt also says,  I want our players to be able to play 70 plays in our heat and humidity. We are getting stronger, we weigh more and we are leaner. <br>Coach Schmidt s number one priority is speed. He works on speed 3 times per week and emphasizes sprint mechanics and overspeed training.  The weakest point in sprinting, claims Coach Schmidt,  is sprinting mechanics. We work on running form and explosiveness through the ground with the ball of the foot. Plyometrics help our athletes understand this concept. Therefore, Box Jumping, Bounding, Hurdle Hops and Skips are an important part of our overall speed development program. <br>Coach Schmidt advises,  Keep your drills simple and not too many. Get really good at a few things. It can be like having too many plays in football. He loves pulling sleds and does all of his plyometric drills with weighted vests in order to get used to what football pads feel like. He starts with six pounds and works up to a 12-pound vest after 12 weeks.<br>  Everybody looks good in shorts, challenged Coach Schmidt,  but what about when you put the pads and helmet on.<br>Coach Schmidt has been coaching for 17 years. I asked him about the differences in athletes over this span of time.  Players have gotten stronger but the big difference is in their speed. Players today are much faster. The high school coaches are doing a better job every year and every year I think they just can t get any bigger but they do.<br> I would advise the high school coach to work his players hard on the Squat, Clean and Speed Development. Be able to watch, see and measure improvement in whatever you decide to work on. Organization is the key.<br> You also lift to prevent injuries. For example, we have two Glute-Ham machines. I feel that exercise is really important and believe it may be the primary reason we have only had one hamstring pull in two years.<br> Look at what is important today. Do today what will make you better tomorrow. Consistency is the key. You have got to stick with it not just get fired up for a couple of weeks and then quit. Make sure you get good rest and excellent nutrition. It all comes down to execution and motivation. Help your players understand the why and how of what you are doing. etting 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 going.<BR><BR><BR>How big is your weight room?<BR><BR>We have two weight rooms-one is 40 x 70, and the other is 30 x 50.<BR><BR>Why do you have two weight rooms?<BR><BR>We needed more weightlifting classes because the kids wanted it.
