One strong advocate of using chains for the quick lifts is Doug Briggs, a faculty member at New Mexico State University and president of the American Weightlifting Association. The idea to use chains occurred to him in May of 2002 when his team was training at Scott Warman s Pro-Gym in El Paso, Texas.  I was sitting on a bench looking at the chains hanging off of a bench press bar and the thought occurred to me that this might be something I could adapt to Olympic weightlifting, says Briggs.<BR>Brigg s first thought was how to adapt the chains so that they wouldn tget in the way of the feet or interfere with the lift. To ensure safety, he believed it was important to have the chains attached as far as away from the inside collars of a barbell as possible. (To do this wie2H|he favors dumbbell movements because he believes they more effectively improve stability and flexibility, and because they offer a high degree of variety that keeps the motivation high. As for machines, Dicus doesn't use them much because he doesn't think they are appropriate for his situation. "We use predominantly free weights. That's our major emphasis, and that's what we believe in."<br><br>There are a lot of distractions facing high school students, and discipline can be a problem in some football programs, but Dicus says Texas City has found an approach that works. "We put a lot of responsibility and accountability on our kids, and I think self-discipline plays a big part in their success not only on the field but in the classroom as well. These kids are very hard workers. They never missed a workout this summer, did everything they were asked to do, and put in a great effort doing it. Good things come to those who are willing to take on that level of responsibility."<br><br>This year the strength program will be taken over by Todd McVay and Tim Finn, as Dicus has accepted the position of head coach at Boerne High School in Boerne, Texas. Dicus is excited about his new challenge, and his new motto is "We can get it done at Boerne!"<br><br>With the pressure doubled from defending their championship and losing a lot of players to graduation, the odds are stacked against Texas City of making it two in a row. "We're going to be young, and we'll be playing a lot of sophomores and juniors," says Dowling. "Though repeating might be difficult, I look for us in two or three years to be on top again."cation to people and his profession is unequaled. <br> <br> Bill Hicks<br> Athletic Director, SHS<br><br>__0rH/ͭ<].$uKs"[ߚ1l wTR/m9c\gUy/cI&iF\fGFs+(5Z~bT u k{ ߻o:UK3/ڣ6Ry 2#E!RMmqz#)bNuEu T}6Y6la(CôEYSP$ NK]MHۧZB~+vxSN|S4DTuu]@ZXAO]atu)q Cp̲h_z\~DSƤb̪{wqi S* d]dZBDm$G@t)}XU 巄!,9Rᕾ*ddO>a\(M$z-M< %`s +7`la,MO1VǍThJK1hwOjd`̻xۃR; .1H#du؀|N|lTA7OEV<˾˺2nf^z@_=&DD spXhxTȻnfS_I[ecqČ9Jk3/o+[ovGaxe)TGx3VVCnnuIeih -v!M6~D#`* Ћz'-dQ}_7P™2ž#GuYTmuj^9摲MJ#TKspY8+4r+J ]ELlPrQ Bı: ǃpCɲ[}cfB-r.6?2SRF U&mHjFx{xݷMuR%&n-cSg4Vv(b\fYUsuݻ le]=*kk$F#=銭 kd7cjmNn &[h3O$SOzMѳiYYP[V>J w[qcjdR-8XWwZ1d'NYڒ&vv]1&F+w4ߢ=Xn"aDޱH%LUrH P܂;B4r! s ݹ2v,q>ǧG+Qj%irWxYN xi%.5*JGf>jLb n:ZJhW/y2ce k5>d`_s{2.Dp׎j9!YLuhI 엽n"6`2: ^( {>@nn47'v԰/RһH!XwwXg?먏n/=9E\Ԍs^V뽿꬇E160nG`w](W&Xz/¢bwT+d vMm5"?Q܍XoVve$:{ϓ-J.5?Tۃwkj|ie׈5#IVV10t$ p_u_-3>( :Wu"m&oV5!Y|S{ *pXAcQ`)]ʽ1ne'Z%H&{{TT-_cĎqh٥YEPJۭ'` kzꪠndu(< C3r(@;73WBC0!sQIJW,,@=m&xєy ݉#xj-rD<Ӌ qf]Tr؆ַMge FTbr,I&Q}i9c_;cRR; t%*uG͙1i{w5V$~XՆ(p}4JNvdįI2j[Q v25’14u1HܻTs=Hu/{jYwsI#uX J%o#02Fۀ\Gى?FT .T}] s{َ4xnv=. uX;ͼoÍ~q<{ETb K[nd\Y;}K&h^aiBWZnzѮ/9 HY1 TP9 9![ٮz鑏Hm7d'205O΅}ڎDJ/e&e@Ȭ'7Y7ιvWeA Y. zܸ:]89weWX'1ƙ!~[ThF11Mr[u }8e 8:heU` ĩH r eu N@aQ :a`otژ'g$NwKUϪ񌣔j9߄ȥq9PADIco)٤n\Bh}tBv&a7ƂjUm#OQwR%{mv˵.P!
