The toes should be straight, not flopped over as in Photo Nine. Again, once you teach the Toes as one of the Six Absolutes, all you have to shout while coaching is that one word,  Toes! Athletes will correct themselves. It makes your coaching life easier and a lot more fun.<br>Photo Ten: Shows poor toe alignment. Look at the front foot in our BFS Hip Flexor stretch. Toes should not be pointed out. The toes should be straight as shown in the correct position of Photo Eleven. <br><br>Our Next Issue: We will discuss correct knee alignment.

Eyes On Target<br>President s Note: In past issues, I introduced the Six Absolutes, which illustrated how coaching techniques in the weight room can be easy and amazingly effective in teaching and learning perfect technique. All coaches and athletes should use the Six Absolutes when coaching or spotting. You can also use these Six Absolutes when coaching any sport.ion with 3-5 sts of squats (say, with 10 reps, 8, 6 nd 4 reps), with bodyweight or more for the last set. That bodyweight is divided between the two legs, so that, even taking acceleration into account, the loading per leg is bodyweight or a little more, while the spine is subjected to the full load on the bar. In other words, the legs and spine in controlled squatting are exposed to significantly less force than in running and jumping. Normally, exercises such as squatting will be done no more than twice a week for a total of about 60 repetitions, while the running child will run every day and subject the body to those many thousands of impulsive foot strikes. <br> It does not require much scientific knowledge or computational genius to see that the cumulative loading imposed by simple running activities on the lower extremities and the spine is far greater than the cumulative load of two or three times a week of weight training. Does this now mean that we are justified in recommending that children not be allowed to run, jump, throw or catch because biomechanical research definitely shows that such activities can produce very large forces on many parts of the growing body? <br>It should be obvious then that there is nothing wrong with running and other normal activities of childhood, and therefore no reason to
