The most powerful sport of all! <br>I first met Miller in 1977 when I attended his Olympic-style weightlifting camp in Santa Fe. Miller s program was a week long crash course of classroom and gym instruction, teaching all aspects of competitive Olympic lifting. Serving as the national coaching coordinator for the US Weightlifting Federation, Miller told us how he had had visited Bulgaria and other Eastern Bloc countries to learn their secrets of success so he could share them with American lifters through his writing, lectures, training camps and personal coaching. The following year Miller was named head coach of the US Weightlifting Team at the World Championships.<br>The athletes Miller has coached have performed well in junior, open, and masters competitions. His most accomplished athlete is Luke Klaja, now a successful physical therapist with a private practice in Klamath Falls, Oregon. Klaja was a member of the 1980 Olympic Team, competing in the 198-pound bodyweight class. Known for his speed and excellent technique, Klaja at his strongest was able to clean and jerk 429 pounds. At the Olympic Trials when Klaja was about to attempt a weight that would earn him a spot on the team, Miller recalls that his athlete turned to him for encouragement to make the lift. Bemused that his athlete needed any more incentive than making the Olympic team, Miller quipped,  Miss it and you owe me $100! To this day, Klaja remains in excellent shape, and in 1998 he broke the national masters clean and jerk record in the 45-49 age group, lifting 319 pounds in the 187-pound class.<br>As a lifter in his own right, Miller had a competitive lifting career that spanned four decades. At age 19 he broke the national teenage record in the snatch; at age 41 there were no more than a handful of US lifters stronger than Miller as he snatched 281 and clean and jerked 352 while weighing 181, despite having several surgeries that included two spinal fusions. Two years ago at age 61 he cleaned 319. Not only can Miller hold his own in the weight room against many college football players, at 61 he ran the 40 in 4.91!<br>In the 70s when he was working tirelessly as our coaching coordinator, Miller traveled extensively in foreign counties to study the training of the world s best weightlifters. At one time he was able to get a private audience with Bulgarian Head Coach Ivan Abadjiev, the man who single-handedly transformed Bulgaria into a world weightlifting power capable of challenging, and often defeating, the mighty Russians. <br>Miller wrote and lectured extensively about the keys to Bulgaria s success, one of which was to keep the multiple daily workouts short, often no more than 45 minutes, to prevent overtraining and to enable the athletes to work out harder. He also wrote extensively on the Bulgarian lifting style, which was difficult to master but enabled the lifter to move the barbell faster, and on how the Bulgarian coaches limited their exercise selection to primarily just the classical lifts, the snatch and clean and jerk, and squats. Such training is now considered the standard model for almost all elite international lifters.<br><br>The Miller Physical Training Plan<br><br>Those who recognize the value of the snatch and clean and jerk, and exercises derived from these lifts, consider them unmatched for developing total body strength and power. According to Miller, the characteristic shared by these exercises is that they start with the most (FB&$a=Wzq;\HL[kVũKI#}iKuUX'zS1ҌEyo+Э F[+Jqhrdžd)FOQPT ҽzz "5Ke3|Pj6%ܣɜhnMʎFA^8ٵ( NYS\'`]Esk,%heusIC'Y8l3cRqaw9-I.qVIҽ0h \([NslLFV-W*Cu4eR7$ % j-jsE 1/;zC|cVŘb&00"Wos^Jȥ%U;~`lur f9F#;C~rwHHʓZwޣ;K],kn/G[ vRӓ#W/Y;4uz&l.$1gJ !@;_+Qw OKv#sA\XMod:+o#5H5$oO bZq$/~thwq*|;^DO*ZoƽGRqUHSKZTh|0~>;oY8: :ag3Us6xbiD N 2e <8䁩D/hԼZkq8w%iW i\2_dKrsL V3ʿUP> V1ڷn[k;tYDTN?Pgt{NR-Jf@yǿˇĪ?M蟫 ٪$!jV8pa.IdVv kyW4s}|ѧ_BۛvSOm6^Xzt+'e]_h7:M @,512mfY)^K:fD(WYz3]Ip}DNeP|J'uPWƔ~C|fahj PpE9+etO[m;H[hb 22<D8ab1X eEa>>#!,sWJcMƙ$ON53c?+hwဤM66MM6 BT*Z%V\mYZ%(o Y7Xė0љ,źrre eur EdPԗ[RLKq2=k[&階ܩ 1(ll䷉b2y1Nb6`zH4<Fhħ)M#oi!E2MjЊ'+S>X/6||qM!G\Іy(WAޝ|isAGHLu=72icׅ05啦EHEG4xFj;wy]֎¿|Q}NFy(h҅H EUFB|寫
