Every phase, every nuance has been well thought out, debated, tried and tested. The BFS Total Program is best for high school in regards to winning and we pledge to always continue to look to make it even better.<br>The BFS Program articles found throughout this issue will define more clearly the BFS difference: BFS Year-Round Unification Program (20 & 21) Coaching Made Easy (50 & 51) The BFS Set-Rep System (page 74 & 75) and Three Unique BFS Lifts (76 & 77). the Power Clean. They struggle with the weight. They struggle with technique. The strength coaches get frustrated. The solution is so simple: BFS Training Plates and the 30-pound or 15-pound bars. Problems solved!<br>Our Athletic Achievement Computer System is a marvelous way to keep track of literally hundreds of athletes. Besides keeping all their records by class or position and even rankings, the Computer System will act as a coach. Our  computer coach will give each athlete individual recommendations based on the athlete's personal scores. It will also recommend what phase of future training needs to be emphasized. Finally, you can make individual printouts for each athlete, parents and/or grading purposes.<br><br><br><br>THINK ABOUT IT. <br>UNIFICATION MAKES SENSE!<br><br>All sports, in both boys and girls teams, will do the same program. Therefore, the two and three sport athletes have continuity and just don't miss a beat in the transition from one sport to the next. Everyone does the BFS Dot Drill for quick feet. Everyone does the BFS 1-2-3-4 Flexibility program for speed and jumping power. Everyone includes some speed and plyometric drills. Everyone breaks 8 or more personal strength and conditioning records per week even during the season. 9 years in a row. The York team was composed of athletes throughout the country who were sponsored by York, whereas almost all Schmitz s athletes were from the San Francisco Bay Area and were dues-paying members at Schmitz s gym. Proving the victory was not a fluke, the Sports Palace team went on to win seven more national titles.<br><br>A Legacy <br>of Strength<br><br>Aking Schmitz who his favorite lifters are is like asking a father which of his children he likes the best - he just can t do it. Schmitz was willing, however, to describe some of the best qualities of each of the following Olympians he has trained.  Ken Patera was the absolute strongest, Bruce Wilhelm [the first American to snatch 400 pounds] trained the hardest, Thanh Nguyen had the most natural talent, Ken Clark had the most determination, and Mario Martinez [415 snatch, 513 clean and jerk and a silver medalist in the 1984 Olympics] had the most success. <br>In addition to developing new talent, Schmitz was also able to rejuvenate the careers of many lifters who had suffered slumps. For example, Tom Hirtz s lifting had stagnated for several years until he came to Schmitz. Hirtz went on to eventually set an American record in the snatch of 342 pounds at 181 pounds bodyweight. Mark Cameron, already an accomplished lifter, moved to San Francisco to train with Schmitz for five months and soon afterwards clean and jerked 501.5 pounds while competing in the 242-pound bodyweight class. <br>One quality that sets Schmitz apart is that he has been able to work especially well with super heavyweights
