For the Hex Bar lift and the power clean, I used only the bar plus the five-pound training plates. I did this for one month. One day I told my partners to take the weight down to 135 on a box squat. There was a mix-up, and the weight was actually 225 pounds. I did 10 reps easy. I was shocked when I found out the true weight, but it gave me a lot of confidence.<br> From then on I progressed quickly. I started to do parallel squats, and then the power clean with 135 pounds. I kept on breaking records. Coach Rowbotham was awesome. The best thing was his patience. He just kept teaching the basics. As we got closer to the season, my knee was feeling strong and my confidence kept building. That meant a lot to me, because I remember the doctor saying that it would take six months just to return to normal. There were a lot of people who doubted that I could even play footbal again. <br>Duncan not only showed up for football practice the first day but also quickly became, for the first time, a starter for the Skyline Eagles. At the end of the season, Duncan was one of the leaders on the team that finished second in the state (within its classification of biggest schools). Duncan was First Team All-Conference and a Second Team All-State running back.<br> I made good strength gains during the season, added Duncan.  The week before our state championship game I got a new two-rep max on the clean at 280 pounds. Everything that happened was a pleasant surprise. Duncan s totals at the end of the football season included a 295 bench press, 415 parallel squat, 300 power clean, a 405 Hex Bar lift and a 4.62 forty. As a sophomore, Duncan s time had been 4.95. Needless to say, Duncan overcame his knee injury and a whole lot more. <br> Your confidence is everything, advises Duncan.  Get that going and your body will follow. As you break records and you get stronger, your confidence increases. Without the BFS Program and Coach Rowbotham, I would not have been as successful. Plus, training alongside all the guys in Bob s basement, we all became best friends. <br>Duncan has developed into a true Eleven. On a scale of one to ten, Isaak is an Eleven. He maintains a 3.65 GPA. He has never gone near a drug. Duncan can look you square in the eye and tell you that he has never had even oweightlifters. He saw that weightlifters would often perform some variation of the exercse twice in a workout, once before the workout with light weights as a warm-up, and again at the end of the workout with heavy weights as a strengthening exercise. This sensible practice was also followed in the U.S. In fact, five-time national weightlifting champion w they can lift just like the older high school or college kids. They can build explosive power, strength and self-confidence while learning correct athletic positions which can be used in their sport. <br>The second piece of equipment is the BFS Training Plate and the BFS 10 lb. Bumper plate. When doing a Clean or any lift from the floor, the bar needs to be elevated high enough to get into a safe position about 8-9 inches off the floor. This allows for the back to be properly locked-in and the chest spread. By doing this, the athletes are able to place the lifting emphasis on their hips and legs as opposed to their backs and arms. You simply cannot do this with a five or a ten pound steel plate because the bar is barley off the floor causing the athlete to have to bend almost completely over just to pick up the weight. Both BFS Training Plates are the same size as a 45-pound plate. The 5 lb Training plate is about a inch thick and made of very hard urethane, while the 10 lb bumper is about 2 inches thick and made of a softer urethane that gives. This allows for the plates to be dropped as opposed to being set back down. K
