Any little sore spot or knot, I just have them work it out and it keeps everything healthy.<br><br>BFS: Just about every article about you talks about your measurements, your bodyweight and what you eat. Don t you get a little tired of this?<br>Hamman: A little bit, but you have to put up with that with the media. They love big guys, and they love that big guys eat a lot. Another thing they like to do is compare me to things, like  His chest is as big around as a tree trunk, instead of just sticking to the facts.<br> <br>BFS: That being said, you re 5 9 and 370 pounds. How is your health?<br>Hamman: It s really good, and I get regular full physicals.<br><br>BFS: Do you know how many calories you do eat on average?<br>Hamman: I had my diet tested three days in a row by our sports nutritionist. I don t remember the exact results, but it sure wasn t anything like 10,000 calories a day!<br><br>BFS: Do you have a special diet?<br>Hamman: For me, my diet is high protein/high sugar. The high sugar sounds ridiculous, but whenever I ve tried to get off sugar and chocolate, my lifts fall apart, so I have to keep my sugar up.<br><br>BFS: What does your sports nutritionist say about that?<br>Hamman: I don t tell her!<br><br>BFS: You talked about how you liked the drug testing in powerlifting. How tough is the drug testing in Olympic lifting?<br>Hamman: We have the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), and I get drug tested randomly probably 18 times a year, and then I m tested at every competition. One USADA requirement is letting them know where I am at all times. If I m not where I m supposed to be when they come to drug test me, that s one notch against me, and three misses like that and it counts as a positive drug test. There s no way that a USADA athlete can hide from drug testing.<br><br>BFS: Do you think Olympic lifting will ever shake the common perception that all the good Olympic lifters are taking drugs?<br>Hamman: I don t know. It s really starting to clean up, and they have formed the World Anti-Doping Association, which is doing some international drug testing. It will never be totally clean no sport is ever going to be totally clean but as for the top lifters in the US, there s absolutely no way that we can take drugs because of how often we re drug tested. Most other countries don t have the random tests like us, so it would be possible for them to still take drugs although I m not saying that they are.<br><br>BFS: What s the training atmosphere like at the Olympic training center?<br>Hamman: Everybody is here to be better, so in the gym there s always kindwas 6.8 seconds. The freshman goal was to get times in under 7.5 seconds. No problem . . . 7.2 seconds. All team members complete the BFS Dot Drill in under 55 seconds with most in the mid 40-second range. The first time they did this drill, no player could do it under 55 seconds. <br>Coach Cecchini times his players quite frequently in the 60-yard dash.
