As a young athlete still in the beginning phase of hammer throwing, she has a real shot at breaking the world record."<br>Weight training is very crucial to a thrower's success. Coach Kuusela explained, "the power clean is the most beneficial lift you can perform for the hammer throw, but remember, as a hammer thrower, she only trains with weights, to help benefit the throw."<br>So what is the key to Amy's success in the hammer throw? Many coaches and teammates claim she has great technique and I will agree to a point, but, the key comes from her great explosive power, which she has developed through training with heavy weights. Amy is the strongest female athlete I have ever met in my life. I watched her power clean 220 for 3 reps with perfect form as if it were nothing. Then we went over to the squat rack where she worked her way up to 410. She was just recovering from the flu and said she wasn't feeling that great, I can't imagine how she trains when she is feeling well and at total capacity. I was disappointed to hear from Coach Kuusela, that I had just missed watching her squat 520 for a new personal record, a few weeks ago. Since then, Amy has moved into a different training phase where she focuses on taking the brute strength that was gained from heavy weight lifting and incorporating it into throwing the 8.8 pound ball they call the hammer.<br>Amy loves to explode on the weights. Her favorite exercise is the power clean. Her best is 253 lbs.! Since her attention is focused on the hammer throw she doesn't bench press, but she has done 275 lbs.<br>Many athletes in this day and age have stumbled across road blocks in their lives, yet managed to overcome these trials to be labeled champions. Perhaps the rough and rocky road they have been forced to walk is what polished them into first class, fine tuned athletes. Amy is an athlete that has had to wos to let the players know that even though we do things a little bit differently from the previous staff, we re going to achieve the same results and we re going to get better and better we want to convince them that they re in good hands. <br>One factor that will make Whtten s job a bit easier is the construction of East Carolina s new strength training facility. The current weightroom is 6,000 square feet. The new weightroom, part of a 52,000-square-foot multipurpose center, will cover 22,000 square feet. The room will include a four-lane, 50-yard sprint track, a 20-yard x 20-yard agility area, plyometric area,ZLijtgOl) Om^U}B8C$1q]ϩ3Y͙Gĭꑻ;LZݏ́/щ#'oRwluAz-nTu{k.n{|%>fYՕ=:E?`X4m^֋.$$b+EPr,f^^B $nĵ*Ee.0X_xzdkg՛ԦB)Ś 5b/Bkq 8ZDg RH Kn#/SI##gP۝vD<[ *99Մo>|| R9t񡠹] :EqтRobmPFM亷>wѹ$mxtQKs"sxPp9en9x@ \AÙv okrA% d^7"F)}Eu̻q'PO ~"?«n>x#{ȱni>|4ͶֵU-Bntڶ*(*h|6~6OyJY R6L,A쩔bm#z Xs 5Dllnm¶_]װq:{E2mqԴKӥʰB<8|5ёډDd.ݨT6dFP{E(I. h S߈7((FuR*ĩ8} ^M;QIX }M\Yʲ`,XBYc@L8̒:ôVZ+&\ ó$@|2`:v[~DFT76׈_x\mG4S_q7$ J |*I'7p#t nDFkm|4^/P{)x vFDieۼ~ @XhwX}nj[+Uտ(1u>;mFz,}Q{jME?=>/8'ǐO,[xP,<(}iK So7ѶRaɏYآ0ڊ$l`c+ g>&>!$9Hx>L՚MO&"4"UMibrsRdƯ?rf<ܮ0XRjWs\Vr`s{i ;ڀ ^aLwc$|Cnur6M?#ڿgaD$c‹sH?a~j@'faqsC$v8K=bwy$91Nqd@w.'ge%;Dzlu -OfHZ/)dcr_Sl}khe4 pw3+JǴ %N1!D{zPW2QXZyRUGT<-QkR}HwgO9E k[^jqDL0աAPXJM3[;SԦeG#}m[C^^LO:!{Ƙo-^ ^X/J/7?/[Emim +(U!teΒ,)zt|1k`jÿ8Q VTI=ޢ}O-$I-clf{0Wqq3yNwCG%Z *2G_C30=Mt;0Z;ڎ-)VѺUkC4BGy>H\@s(<oA4J% ܯ냵3c\Y3}2^z~}AsG7ղg6_$oo6YZ_O]c~]13k13}33eg# ?{ؿ(վڇ}u#7έG͖c?SqF
