Everybody, I mean everybody, was snatching, cleaning and jerking, and doing the three power lifts. John Powell was a world-record holder in the discus at that time, but he also competed in Olympic lifting and powerlifting. Al Feuerbach, who was a world-record hlder in the shot put back then, won the national championships in Olympic lifting and the shot put durin the same year. You need to be explosive and strong to throw far, and tese lifts were the way to get explosive and strong. <br>While at Skyline Dan earned a scholarship to Utah State, where he majored in history.  It was a tough decision to go to Utah State because I would be leaving such a great environment for lifting and throwing, but I knew I needed to grow and to extend my vision of the world. After graduating Dan worked briefly in a cheese factory cleaning up, and it was at this poin in his life that he made a critical discovery:  I don t like cleaning up burnt cheese. Thus enlightened, Dan returned to school to get a master s degree in history and religious education.<br>At his athletic best, Dan was a competitor in what many regard as the  Golden Age of Throwing.  When I was a senior I threw 190, which was just a remarkable throw  until you compared it to national records, says Dan.  It s funny, because I was up at a track meet in Las Vegas this fall and I met a college coach from Delaware. When we got to talking about the numbers that I threw on Sunday, he said I would have dominated his conference. I thought,  A 46-year-old man would have won his conference  that s amazing.  <br>Dan s athletic accomplishments and practical coaching wisdom eventually caught the attention of BFS President Dr. Greg Shepard. The first time Dan met Greg was in 1980 at the Hill Air Force Base Powerlifting meet, where Dan was competing for the Utah State Powerlifting Team. Recalls Dan,  It was about two in the morning during the deadlift competition, and I was sitting around in the warm-up room when Greg came up to me and asked me what I was opening wit. I said I was starting light at 573 pounds, just to get a mark, and I think it almost knocked Greg down. After that we kept bumping into each other at competitions, and then I started working out at the Upper Limit Gym when it opened up. That was a great place to work out because the Utah Jazz trained there, and Greg and his BFS staff made certain they took their lifting seriously. One day when I was working out Greg asked me if I wated to work at the gym, and I accepted. That started my relationship with BFS. <br>If there s one major struggle Dan has had as an athlete, it s with his bodyweight. In college it was as high as 272, which Dan says was pretty solid because he was lifting hard. Dan was able to lean down after college; he quit training from 1981 to JGHYϧ%?vP$Y#85TPd#x[SoydYdLI̙[try)(ڿMpݑ#{} };xgJ<חĻ#|;IF w l4>dOB R("պ◶vm%ԅ#u,M/ڑU\HZ'~^L/WsS׹o%s%9I!D#?j0~Ql.wwih@goy_R}SDR/mp$n~#I߽gǃ,`hEB[RּFĆTq>?2-qD A)ӼYhwu‹mml`O5fW?o"V“SlAea#Uu?isP2#]A<Uψ(W1 %Oym.^M^NגLxu>o䫄TTAZ`YBI~0%9GNjx}$)y_TAƎ%SţS9VSMewfI<: XV6[&>qѮB"5,BV* znN9=D@ ,ր$^8 X?SЬ!]zĻiFa+_<?`}_¸?ZH%gkYR6i(k,0n~cG>7{&*DE(Toۣ19r y{ҭ\}!.T `]~+ lX=5k$^=Fؽ**00So5PyC[[B4a$PyN8c|A rD\pڜH'4~Sګw )K+2B<2&4?pYn!P ~Y&ZԳH=~ƙ 6բMnc1 Vv/ŰCk1ݪD a/|<"hdO/OyhV KnQZ2HWHS,;p3s3 _s;/?jo,eL~9 /FoO[j-%PHlu\M> Cֵ 2qAkp Xˀ? =6/3jk:s}t^F]y۟MGd&>,Ǒ!H]Pw 55%wM,*Ft=)m>xlGXV "R Fѭ[zDϱツT3PS@B֛궰jzu~[%w\R*+@ $h15LlmKom[JѤ'ۺ/9|ki-;iwP[$豬4_CxM/؎_xiϡ#[}o 2xX 1z2=5X.x}k.LbS#l7r}Ey;'+%#co3xO"ʸ_.}s,Fx .nhľoLJhMZ|#yqC,?l1}Qy⑋y)he#Ա.gy]Gʹ4h&VFVaFJRԷ'kxqF_zElu;幺H(=N*3t/ 8Vy.u%ƣ"E^y a$gtUSpSkn5H$a$Ǘ X-_3HmZ?K!$zz1[B7yb!gݸe`ʥ;}[L p9Q&w&XpFWZ"̰R0c3~džV/$ajV)=ej T➳#O7os ko?M{P9\Gܷ^)|}^df1H W/ @=:~&s?%Z].&XS7B$FH$ߌ\}?Yt)gw7W\JcT}֊$T_/Gm^6V;Pj3_Q|wt,F1pxu?kt"m颷C _Mxxp ]sv^.DY\˹Vi:UJR 2]<7QSg9Mi'^1B9K-V5<-͓ӋXz,)uqgt>]Z2 ٞA<'\}9N]WMI%y=H'jShჰsn!v!UOO B,w0GQ j9VP~X#z"ĩ%rMgn OQoin8Ƌ+ԓrWvtv!?0LXigZ"U,cǏ|Ny2ɴiQ}J R^C.L!p(#Q3c<澷M*esϫO: qHNË2|~ًTyۑI#eRʳI4j@zq`&)?ok<ٞHx֌"vok8w|~'/OЎUXYN#4t$ITl }Y1Ipuz%䟼wzv+/H@$+}>>
