His program is a work in progress. He knows that complacency is an enemy that would bring to his program nothing but degeneration---there is always room for improvement. With all the ideas and traditions that make his team unique, fun and successful, Coach Wiess knows that one of the most important traditions is the drive to always learn more and do better. <br>To facilitate his desire to always improve, Coach Weiss has already begun making plans for BFS to return, and he stated,  I plan on having a clinic every three years as new athletes and coaches cycle into the high school athletic program. Or, possibly every year to have  refresher courses about specific lifts such as the power clean. <br>Now that the Wildcats have won the sectional championship, the obvious next step is the state championship. As they continue to improve and push themselves to new levels, this highest achievement will become more and more feasible. Is it possible? Sure it is!<br>Another rule was eventually changed concerned weightlifting apparel. In the early days, women had to wear the same lifting suits as men I suppose this is a great look if you want to become a pro wrestler or join the circus. This may not sound like such a big deal, but I doubt if Pete Sampras would appreciate it if he were forced to wear a tennis dress! In protest, several of the European women at one of the first World Championships gave themselves "wedgies" and tied knots in the suits to make them more flattering.<br> <br>Injury-Proofing the Female Athlete<br><br>In recent years many individuals have tried to instill a fear in athletes and coaches that Olympic lifting was dangerous and heaven forbid that a woman compete in the sport! The appropriate way to train, according to some, was very slowly. As for exercise selection, they insisted the emphasis should be on nonspecific bodybuilding movements, and the less emphasis on freeweight lifts the better.<br><br>Responding to such propaganda is exercise scientist Dr. Mel Siff, who did his Ph.D. thesis on the biomechanics of soft tissues. According to Siff, the basic activities that occur in most sports, such as running and jumping, "can impose far higher forces on the body than are encountered in weightlifting." Thus, if you tell athletes they can't do lifts such as the power clean because of ballistic loading, then you should likewise tell them not to play sports, period. And if you tell athletes never to lift weights overhead as in a push press or jerk, then you should not allow them to throw footballs or baseballs either.<br>Siff also emphasizes that the danger of weightlifting prematurely closing the growth plates of young girls is exaggerated, since running and jumping can impose even greater loads on the bones and joints. If we were to take this myth seriously, then we would have to restrict all girls and boys to walking and swimming!<br>Another factor not considered by the slow-training proponents is that Olympic lifting can help prevent injuries by properly developing the nervous system. Siff says these same people make the mistake of concentrating on how much weight is being lifted. "The most important thing in regard to injury-proofing the athlete is proper development of the central nervous and motor control systems. From my research and experience, I have found that accidents and injuries often have a lot to do with motor control, technique and skill, and not so much with weak tissu
