Everything I did in business applied to football. Reinforcement, measurements, recognition, getting people to take ownership and most importantly, having benchmarks. That s what I love about BFS: it gives us standards, and in this program our young players have to perform up to standards. Not in the sense that they have to rush for 200 yards or make eight tackles a game, but we do have expectations of them as people. And living up to expectations is a challenge in Virginia Beach, as there are many distractions.<br> We live half a mile from Chesapeake Bay and four miles from the best surf in the East Coast. Then there s the Internet, the 30-minute pizza delivery, microwave ovens  all that stuff. Like Vince Lombardi said, a lot of people who are worth their salt like discipline, they like structure, and that s what we give them with BFS. <br>On March 3rd, Allosso introduced BFS to the team, following the program exactly as Dr. Shepard prescribed it. Les McGuire and Mike Nelson were the coaches primarily responsible for supervising the workouts. It would be an understatement to say that Allosso was pleased with the results.<br> BFS had an immediate impact on our program. My previous experience as a vice president of a systems automation and technology company had provided me with numerous opportunities to attend many outstanding seminars and launch hundreds of great new products and programs. As wonderful and successful as some of them were, nothing compares to the sut natural talents, but these were athletes who really didn't take care of their bodies, and you wonder what they could have done if they had taken better care of themselves."<br>A major portion of Amy's training is the Olympic lifts, but she also performs several auxiliary lifts for the lower back, abs and the upper body. "It's important to keep the upper body strong for coordination," says Amy. "At the takeoff you really have to move the pper body--you can't just be a limp noodle." She also says it's important for jumpers to perform specialized exercises for their ankles. "You get a lot of power from your feet, and if your ankles are hurting you're going to suffer. I do all kinds of ankle strengthening, such as picking up sand and running on the toes o strengthen the arches, surgical tubing exercises, and rocker boards--I work on my ankles a lot."<br>For younger jumpers, Amy believes in the importance of being exposed to a variety of sports. "You learn a lt through other sports and through competition. It's just like your academic studies--you ned to become a student of your sport and learn all there is about it. The high jump takes a lot of echnique, but you can't stop there. You need to lethese competitions vaulted Tricia to 4th in World Cup overall points for the 2001 season. <br>Tricia is leaving no stone unturned in her bid to make the Olympic team. And should she make it, she ll represent our nation with honor. She has gone to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and spent time with the team s sport psychologist, Kirsten Peterson.  She has good insight ito my performance personality, said Tricia.  We focused on where my challenges are in sport. She gave me concrete things to try in an effort to create an environment where I can be my best. <br>While in Colorado Springs, Tricia received active release therapy (ART) to help a long-time hamstring injury. Dr. Leahy created this approach to muscle healing which strips off scar tissue and allows the muscles and tendons to move.  Essentially he digs his thumbs into my hamstrings as deep and hard as he can
