I knew growing up that I d have to lift weights seriously to compensate for my lack of height and weight. Lilja agrees.  Damien has a great work ethic, he says.  He leads by example and he s very coachable. Even with all of the Heisman hype he continues to work hard. I wish we had more like him. <br>Regarding his basic weight-training workout, Lilja says Anderson follows much the same routine as other players, but with  more emphasis on hamstring and hip extensor movements. Outside the weight room, Anderson s program is designed for upper limit athleticism.  We do plometric training to work fast-twitch fibers and we als do a lot of power work like sled pulls and resistance running and over-speed drills, which incorporate tension bands and bungee cords. Such a sound, functional approach to training helped Anderson enter this season with a 4.33 best in the 40 and a 36-inch vertical jump.<br>His favorite exercises?  Anything that will get me bigger, faster, stronger, Anderson quips.  But if I had to narrow it down, the power clean, squat and bench press. Anderson says that the squat, in which he has a personal best of 575 pounds, is especially important  because you have to be able to break through tackles and take it the distance. In regard to changes from last year, Anderson says the major difference after the season was in striving to increase the intensity of his workouts. <br><br>Rushing Forward<br><br>At the time of this writing, Northwestern has won five of six games, including a 27-26 thriller over Michigan State that involved three lead changes in the last 30 seconds. <br>Anderson has been keeping his Heisman hopes alive, rushing for 595 yards, which included a team record of four touchowns in the school s second game with Duke. And with a veteran offensive line to keep the opposing defensemen at bay and a quality senior quarterback in Zak Kustok, you can expect more big numbers from Anderson along with more W s for the team.<br>When asked what advice he would give high school running backs trying to emulate his accomplishments, Anderson stressed dedication to goals.  I went from the best high school program in Illinois to probably one of the worst when my family moved, and I was faced with a lot of adversity then, explains Anderson.  But we turned the whole program around, and then when we played on Fridays the whole town practically shut down. Even as Damien Anderson looks toward his own promising career in the NFL, his veteran advice is to stay focused, and find ways to continually motivate yourself.  You just have to want it - you need that inner drive to be successful. <br>Drive on, Damien!<br><br><br>_______________<br><br> Damien has a great work ethic, He leads by example and he s very coachable.

The results were beyond anyone s expectations.<br>Brooks startd working with Poliquin on April 12, and continued for the next three months.
