The first section has ten power racks, nine-foot-tall structures built with 4 x 4 steel. The second section has ten multi-purpose  all-in-one bench stations that can be used to perform bench presses, incline presses and military presses. The third section consists of ten platform stations for Olympic lifting movements, and the fourth section is a dumbbell area with two lines of dumbbells weighing up to 150 pounds. This year the weight training facilities for all athletes will expand so that this room will be devoted just to football.<br>Galt says his program is basically the same for all positions,  and the only athletes training really differently are the kickers and punters. For the first 45 minutes of the hour devoted to weight training, the core movements are the same for all players. These lifts include the bench press, incline bench press and military press for the upper body; and the clean, snatch, squat, step-up and lunges for the lower body. Also, deadlifts are performed for eight weeks in the winter and ten weeks in the summer.<br>What did the Terps do differently this year in training?  The biggest thing we did this year was challenge them to a degree that we weren t sure they would be able to accomplish, says Galt.  Some of the workouts, some of the intensity---we weren t sure that they would physically be able to accomplish without overtraining. But they stayed with the program, and by the time the season rolled around in August, they were the strongest, heaviest, fastest team we d ever had. <br>When asked what advice he would give to high school players who hope to someday play for Maryland, Galt replied,  One of the biggest problems with high school athletes is time constraints, because many athletes are multi-sport. What we recommend is that the high school athlete try to figure out a way to become more consistent in the weight room, even if it s only 45 minutes, twice a week. We have many kids from well-established high school programs who come here, and when they come here they just explode---and that s because we train year-round. That s why it s always nice to have athletes from high schools who were on the BFS program---they hav a good foundation. <br>One player whose potential exploded under Galt s strength training program was junior defenno High School in Tucson. On the video, Coach Scurran shows this unique ers might take steroids for that reason. But, you say, isn t that good for football or for being aggressive at the plat NCAA collegiate record and was a past Olympian. Stefan became a part of BFS in the mid-1980 s. We owe him a great deal. He bridged the gap between the United tates and the old Soviet Union. Stefan was privy and knowledgeable about the Soviet training methods. The Soviets spent hundreds of million of dollars on developing their system. They took the secret in the early 1970 s and elevated it to new leves. They took training very seriously. Their coaches, for example, could get a doctorate in discus, sprinting or weight lifting at the University of Moscow.<br>Stefan took full advantage of this knowledge. I have never seen an athlete like Stefan. For those who saw Stefan, you know I am n
