"We realized our kids had to understand why this was important if we were to get them committed to the program. Our strategy was to sensationalize what we were doing, provide feedback and incentive, and to continually sell the vision we created." Here are the steps they implemented:<br><br>Use the BFS model of including varietyin all phases to keep our kids interested and allow their bodies to adapt to each phase of the program.<br><br>Have all the grades work out together, so that the senior.dY@s]_P%ɑϰP߿pG\TT`0t^h?ʎ{~讋vC}3\bHG+VF1%B7'1Op1dJ9'޳Orl)̘cN1'`ݞRί,!Fey)8߁3H(P8Ӣ=VXR~gX:hK~`H"Fxw`R-D/t[1}71ӵ_bX5BU9՜P#>в$(QS cɨtxQ|?c4JmckgÕG)vs>ꎂ׷Wh v53$ 'sQi29nןʺY,_J#CQE<˜F[ݨsځ}ѩi'zy ɩ@#?ZI*& '=ʌ>m亸Y"Ri:ib[uI)oEs]zFDy?=EC%[qtg {7UB_Izw{ %"}qҵU<{VOQFZJO[3Ƨ^7j@yVV'd%}ҹ.w^rèV~ԇIiU`w\ZԡRXP} ?NeEjR" ';MEpTROƺbeaujwH͌n$h^J Y{YF`g;C_8qw[StЊ3/_Ʀ^?Z*z㞧\i-/#`>ZQ0=NKxnP|F$S@sMuaning up, and it was at this point in his life that he made a critical discovery:  I don t like cleaning up burnt cheese. Thus enlightened, Dan returned to school to get a master s degree in history and religious education.<br>At his athletic best, Dan was a competitor in what many regard as the  Golden Age of Throwing.  When I was a senior I threw 190, which was just a remarkable throw  until you compared it to national records, says Dan.  It s funny, because I was up at a track meet in Las Vegas this fall and I met a college coach from Delaware. When we got to talking about the numbers that I threw on Sunday, he said I would have dominated his conference. I thought,  A 46-year-old man would have won his conference  that s amazing.  <br>Dan s athletic accomplishments and practical coaching wisdom eventually caught the attention of BFS President Dr. Greg Shepard. The first time Dan met Greg was in 1980 at the Hill Air Force Base Powerlifting meet, where Dan was competing for the Utah State Powerlifting Team. Recalls Dan,  It was about two in the morning during the deadlift competition, and I was sitting around in the warm-up room when Greg came up to me and asked me what I was opening with. I said I was starting light at 573 pounds, just to get a mark, and I think it almost knocked Greg down. After that we kept bumping into each other at competitions, and then I started working out at the Upper Limit Gym when it opened up. That was a great place to work out because the Utah Jazz trained there, and Greg and his BFS staff made certain they took their lifting seriously. One day when I was working out Greg asked me if I wanted to work at the gym, and I accepted. That started my relationship with BFS. <br>If there s one major struggle Dan has had as an athlete, it s with his bodyweight. In college it was as high as 272, which Dan says was pretty solid because he was lifting hard. Dan was able to lean down after college; he quit training from 1981 to 1987 to concentrate on his career. When he got back into training he allowed his bodyweight to go up again, and by 1995 he accepted the fact that he was fat and had to do something about it. <br>To get lean, Dan went on a low-carb, high-protein diet. Dan s description of a good breakfast:  meat, eggs and other stuff. A bad breakfast:  not meat, eggs, and other stuff. In a few months he dropped 50 pounds.  It s funny, I got down to 206, and I found that I couldthrow the discus just as far as I did when I was heavier  and my injuries disappeared. <br><br>The State of the Sport<br><br>Although Dan says the US stilRt$iUuwycd()x>4LyQY5֟귟VU'g-okvqJ+#|yRKh G,28Ӷg{?Po?\-\̦GpҜIs'i܀X ҞY\i;&2`7E$tc>^8kY*EO׶I/I/EP݂`XL *}aJH8o|, S@Oއٝv8 )bc6FEKi2JZIӧL,]ן]TWbz| N*mi-gcpt;ĄjA|c꿨{OiWTgb 7h--./ed隱BUy0q =6KxѶ p |8%AV+ܑ#גV$ZgC0xTGjyBTF}׉l!Glwۧ&pi|#VNr?n14"#dRs|Xi51vF_vA@PҎj~7zbm9jQ<`%WR\\Pw?u%~^hb%JwJ'ߖsY|;F,w*fݸ" ^?G0D vqW>&u|# U@IS!TYV),Y`$fO-˗O6Αip
