The bench press is an example of an economical exercise because it involves the pectorals, shoulders and triceps. For the lower body, one of the best exercises that work the hamstrings is the glute-ham raise.<br>The glute-ham raise begins as a standard back extension, the difference being that after the lower back becomes parallel to the floor, the athlete continues the movement by bending the knees. This additional movement involves the knee extension (bending) function of the hamstrings, whereas the first part of the exercise primarily works the hip extension function of the hamstrings. To perform this exercise comfortably, the machines used for this purpose have a rounded pad.<br>One person who helped popularized the glute-ham exercise was Bud Charniga, a weightlifter who in 1974 snatched 352 pounds, only five pounds off the American record in his bodyweight division. Charniga developed a homemade version of the glute-ham machine after reading an article in a 1971 issue of Strength and Health. Eight years later when he visited Russia, he found that every gym he visited had a glute-ham station, and that the exercise was an integral part of the training of Russian weightlifters.<br>Charniga's glute-ham bench consisted of a padded car seat nailed to a carpenter's bench. He placed the bench in front of his power rack, and hooked his legs underneath a barbell so he wouldn't tip over. BFS has refined this design, and recently introduced the roller glute-ham, an adjustable machine that offers the benefit of a round pad that rotates as the athlete moves.<br>The window of opportunity an athlete has to achieve optimal performance is all too brief, and it's a shame to see athletes shorten that time even more by suffering from hamstring injuries. Make sure you don't hamstring yourself by overtraining. Instead, work out smart with core exercises, post-stretching and proper technique.odle." She also says it's important for jumpers to perform specialized exercises for their ankles. "You get a lot of power from your feet, and if your ankles are hurting you're going to suffer. I do all kinds of ankle strengthening, such as picking up sand and running on the toes to strengthen the arches, surgical tubing exercises, and rocker boards--I work on my ankles a lot."<br>For younger jumpers, Amy believes in the importance of being exposed to a variety of sports. "You learn a lot through other sports and through competition. It's just like your academic studies--you need to become a student of your sport and learn all there is about it. The high jump takes a lot of technique, but you can't stop there. You need to learn the mechanics, the physics and the psychology of the jump to really succeed."<br>Amy has given quite a bit of thought to the psychology of sports and believes there are some truths behind the stereotypes about track and field athletes. She says that sprinters are confident, bordering on cocky; throwers are the jokers and are laid-back; pole vaulters are the daredevils, and distance runners tend to engage in strange rituals and habits that she feels border on "just plain weird." She also says that because decathletes have an appreciation for all the events, they tend to make a lot of friends and, she adds, "have the nicest bodies."<br><br> <br>Posing for Perfection<br><br>Although her plate is full with athletics and studies, Amy does have a few outside interests, such as modeling. She is currently represented by Click, and Amy says the agency likes the idea that she is an athlete. <br>Although most women have a hard time getting modeling assignments because they're too short, Amy has the opposite problem because she's 6' 2" and the ideal height of a model is 5' 9". Her eight makes her too tall for runway work and sometimes makes it difficult for her to fit into some of the clothes.
