In 1998 Anthony was Conference Offensive Player of the Year. Have all these honors gone to his head? <br>Not in the slightest. Anthony s favorite saying is about this very subject.  To be humble when brought low is one thng but to be humble when praised upon is a rare and great achievement. Anthony also believes te most important thing in his life is God. He will graduate this May as a theater major. Anthony hopes to one day teach drama, theater and coach. He then spouted off another Frostyism,  That s what I want to do for a loving. <br>Frosty Westering has had a big impact on Anthony. He looked at me with emotion and concluded,  Frosty taught me about what he called  rted that he ate a pregame meal of sauerkraut and wieners. Barry Sears, author of "The Zone", states, "There is enough stored energy in our fat cells to equal eating 1,700 pancakes." Apparently, stored fat is what Jim Ryan used for energy.<breڊ was very little for the coaches to say.&nbsp; The 1996 team had been challenged by a former player and the only questi mJLluVR- Xut.L5@(P(7eřbyʁ~ߛ1N~uWIONA?iI֟?n[MAY*~l{wof# gR;jpnu+ ?˻-yr\ywciu3ƣRt>@2@=˳-k>$j׈ /O hG/R.ȦJ_%UʿɡiA;3PJP?oSm4nޛ UH=.Z?kx+)(KLYҭ"_j! mB"8moBjT{_ݢSn)>~~_Vz_W*ڼK+>O|+ cp|&cgw>y>U rfh#te@-Xm=v\i4UŜ~Wq+wGI)11x1#v6Iwv:vRbmjQjr%r}jOޅ?bjF vO3sm˥bo/S#4Zk\b` fiJ(zzcGgqɐv6^1} CFQ_12Bzio#tNg + :??燑.IZ"mSJro9sI;|öɛ?<$gl̮ͼEոD\|z-:FqRrߞ~K"i{cy8VDQWڤ8($k tؒw^hA+- @,+`uؐw;y~I|Gڹ65;/*U[~\!r%~ .v4phǪhKgt?|>qV ӧ0_Ax1J~!ܓ/a^2IN'  z>}:7h\]X<4^v̿V&)WJʔ/_\b=ucN#pzpDXZ%#v3rhw_"zKвgW3S-n.a<@AZa? `M@|,G׉܁J!Z1qT+/yP:>iʽ,M~Y9܉ A"!FIR+_E¡_Szql)O.zLw 5j$ܤ|J_G>9yǍxf yCZvP俵 C4T}J|\>|c}?n˱n"u%x*d''(Ɔ(va[#:lg6d+@@f>z|5_ycvv[!fRo/iUZWد8JdOWlhOB?k[ aōU:6~L> ^]7 Qs4.^;=H߯wn)Am zu'뙈]FGf=|@7 Jv)TrVZrwn8S; "I didn't beat the world four times.&nbsp; Competition is a test of ones self.&nbsp; I made myself as ready as I could and then when I stepped up to compete I would say to myself I have prepared the best I can and there is nothing left for me to do but my very best." </P> <P>Al Oerter never did have professional coaching.&nbsp; But following his four Olympic victories he commented, "Now, I am introduced to professionals everywhere I go: therapists, psychologists, business managers, and trainers.&nbsp; But, I am used to being self reliant and it has worked well for me."&nbsp; Oerter's coaches were a calendar and a towel.&nbsp; He recalls, "my calendar had 1460 days on it, which was the number of days I had to train before the next Olympics.&nbsp; I checked off every day that I gave 110% effort."&nbsp; Then, during training I would use a towel to mark the distance I threw. I never set a goal on 'the perfect distance' I simply worked to beat the towel.&nbsp; Often people would watch me train but I didn't notice them much because I was so focused on that towel.&nbsp; </P> <P>"While training for the Olympics, Oerter adopted the training philosophy of Norm Schemansky: work hard for 45 minutes with no coaxing, no looking at mirrors and no B.S. talk. &nbsp;Norm quickly became one of Al Oerter's greatest heros.&nbsp; Oerter worked hard lifting 12 months a year.&nbsp; So, at age 32 when he won his fourth Olympic Gold Medal, he was 6'-4" and weighed 295 pounds.&nbsp; He was able to arrow grip Bench Press 525 for two reps, Squat (touch a bench at parallel) for 5 reps at 725 pounds, Hang Clean 5 reps at 350 pounds, perform swinging, explosive curls for 5 reps at 325 pounds and do dumbbell alternate presses, flys and curls with 100 to 120 pound dumbbells.&nbsp; "I had a strong back from doing the old Jefferson Lift," remembered Oerter.&nbsp; "I used up to 450 pounds even at a young age."&nbsp;</P> <P>Oerter doesn't think that it is possible for an Upper Limit athlete to avoid injuries.&nbsp; "If you work at elevated levels," reasoned Oerter, "you must expect some injuries.&nbsp; You don't look for injuries but you must push yourself. &nbsp;That is the only way to become stronger."</P> <P>In Rome, Oerter slipped on a muddy ring in the preliminaries and ripped the cartilage loose from his rib cage.&nbsp; "That was devastating," remembered Oerter, "I couldn't sleep, eat or throw. It really hurt!"&nbsp; The doctors told him there was nothing they could do.&nbsp; But, Oerter persisted.&nbsp; So, the doctors agreed to try a method where they froze the muscle, taped it, gave him ammonia capsules and then hoped for the best.</P> <P>Since each competitor gets to keep their best throw from the previous days preliminaries, Oerter could have stayed in the top eight without over extending himself.&nbsp; However, he said, "I just thought about the four years of hard work and those 1460 days. &nbsp;I did not want to cheat myself."&nbsp; Then during finals each competitor was allowed three throws.&nbsp; But because of the excruciating pain, Oerter decided to make the 2nd throw his last.&nbsp; "So," tells Oerter, "on that second throw I gave it everything I had."&nbsp; He threw an Olympic record!</P> <P>When asked about the struggles experienced in training for the Olympics, Oerter replied, "Barriers in life happen all the time.&nbsp; You have got to step it up.&nbsp; If you back down, you never learn anything about life or yourself."&nbsp; Later in his career Oerter did have Olympic coaches who would really push him but he always knew it was to make him better.</P> <P>Al Oerter was also a great success in the business world. Ironically, he worked with computers and advanced technology. Currently, Al Oerter is living in Colorado.&nbsp; And he is still a lean, but powerful 260 pound man.&nbsp; Although he is retired, he stays quite busy as a motivational speak
