Intensity rose another notch. Eleven players reached this level. Fifty-one at 500 or more and eleven at 600 pounds. Both new national BFS records.<br>Coach Tomberlin shouted above the dim of excitement, "What's the national record for most weight ever lifted?"<br>"Seven thirty," I responded loudly. Tyler Biggins, a huge 290-pound returning starter, stepped forward. Six hundred had gone easy. I felt he had a shot. A new record weight was eased onto the bar: seven 45's on each end, along with a 25 and a 5-pound plate.<br>Everybody was going crazy. Everyone was shouting and chanting, "Tyler, Tyler, Tyler." He chalked up! He tightened the lifting straps around the bar. He pulled with all his might. The bar inched upward. The noise was deafening. Past his knees... then lockout! Tyler did it!<br>What a night. I relearned a coaching lesson. Coaching is more than X's and O's. It is more than periodization and learning the Krebs Cycle. Coaching correctly calls for passion. Coaching correctly means dealing with the human spirit! It means changing lives for the better. It is about leadership and team. It is about building and achieving.<br>No matter what happens in the future to each Golden Hawk football player, they will have a night to always remember. They will always be able to dream big. t a high school in Idaho. I inherited a team that was 0-6 and had lost homecoming 72-0; the kids were so dispirited that they just quit, forfeiting their last three games. We trained hard, and the following year our team won the country championships and scored a fantastic 29-16 victory over the team that had beat us 72-0. And this is despite the fact that the opposing team had a school enrollment of 1,600 kids to our 850! Then I took over the Granger High School team in Salt Lake City, a team that had won only two ballgames in four years, and we achieved what is still considered the most dramatic turnaround in the history of Utah. This got everyone's attention.<BR>Coaches were asking me, "How can ou take a disaster school and turn it around in just one year?" When I said it was our weight training program, they would ask me to come to their schools and show them how to do it. That was how our BFS clinics began, and those schools that I worked with also saw dramatic turnarounds in their programs.<BR>In between my football jobs in Washington and Idaho, I was hired as the strength coach at Brigham Young University. At BYU I did a movie called Bigger Faster Stronger. The movie was a hit, and the secret was out nationwide. Football coaches nationwide began doing the BFS program, but even so, it seemed to be a slow process. It was also amazing to me that coachoverall conditioning, and we often have to elevate their work capacity so they can handle the amount of work they do on the field. <br><br>Training Grrrrrrrreat <br>Tigers!<br><br>Batson is convinced that conditioning was a significant factor in why the team finished strong last year.  We re always going to be a well-conditioned team, says Batson.  In Coach Bowden s philosophy, number one is conditioning, number two is speed, and number hree is strength.
