He recalls a little reluctance to the program at first particularly from the female athletes. With the expanded weight room and light stations, that seemed to evaporate. The Parallel Squat took a little while for people to accept as well, but when the team played a successful season with no injuries, even the skeptics had to admit there was merit to the program. He says that while the varsity sports are already pretty much unified on BFS, some other sports like golf are coming around as well.  Most classes participate, he says.  My class does BFS exclusively, some of the other athletes do it on their own. He estimates about 30 percent of the school s students participate in a sport of some kind.<br>In addition to beating rival Hazelwood East, Pukala hopes to see all the athletes on the program in the coming year. He d also like to see more expansion of the weight room, particularly for cardiovascular equipment. He has a strong feeling he ll see the entire school s athletic program following the BFS guidelines; but with the cost of a stair climber hovering around $3,500, he admits that the latter wish of his dream-scheme may not be realized for a while!<br><br>The McCluer North Clinic<br><br>Dr. Greg Shepard went to McCluer North High School in St. Louis last June. Coach Jim Schottmueller wanted extreme motivation, especially at the end. Coach Shepard split the athletes into 8 groups and had a competition which also encompassed leadership and helping each other. They competed all day but the last event was special. <br>Each 8-man team had a 415-pound Olympic set which was placed outdoors at the base of a hill. A 1,000-yard course was laid out: One hundred yards up a gradual slope, then a steep section and around a pole to a soccer field. The final leg was to come down the hill and across the 9S@'#UpTm2=i1 qN]*+(U,Ov) f#@FlNj\aZ*YII #WH2_FI9 fcB0{g4GJ“Cy 'K۟*g8j$2' r[Y.ᜉvj|>w.s lrP])ssH Jm^$NyAΙ'S5 ?J@ ,P*@0L2x@M*.Jʠ@9 ={P ^kK 38<yА`N {0# r;5.fb"2{ 0wʀ6w0Lt'hGT9=8\/+L}NFW=DkjWc)x oYk*.GM7h[x RK'2D/vS9xha$dg𦮮Ƞ͓@yݱ9~a{uLJZ/-I:]Bd @O$9}wc4mݫ95@aȆS!=~_,ڧAWbx'9~R6v _328OZ'$<hr/cR$ g8*qN&\qP3B;ԊNqT~7H d`a4@Bzr:dqPJApj9Q#c9 ~4a@錌ESPKLv2?( %드ޜeϘA_*@ѳ#nY})#pc%d86A@Nn 8ݜubY#l;&f%Hژ6*0d`21PF0Y>eFaOUyJ· wp1B !az _6Rۈ jfE3y&Œ2FnqP0vcB:\Y,tf9`pj5˒J# r? aLI"b2Jd&OʤuB5BNG:bInOҞѮ7#syiJs= ]ssL-Lʀ#d[d q$rH>RgztѪ!v}7hh po†E 0LJ6>B)9:7 Wl:n:rTbq;rN?ZFº+pz2!n=_JG dE?HyϽ3R4HX@|z{"PQ>AW`@'*~}x'#chұz?Z*”Q? <br>LJ: Our athletic director is Lee Moon, and e's really given us a lot of support.
