However, there were no wins. Game 5 was the wake-up call. We were playing a formidable opponent and getting physically whipped. We came in at half-time and we told them that no adjustments could be made. We were giving a total effort. Two simple words were written on the board - WEIGHT ROOM. This game demonstrated one team living in the weight room and one who was not. They were asked about their effort during in-season lifting.<br>The next week saw a different attitude. We continued to utilize BFS 3 times per week but this time BELIEVING. We finished the year winning 2 of the last 3 games.<br>On November 21, 1997, our first BFS off-season began. We maxed out and the results are listed in Table 1. We asked our young men to give things a chance to happen. Give success a chance to happen. Believe you can, and you'll find that you can. TRY! You'll be surprised at how many good things can happen. You must believe and commit yourself to it.<br>Our lower body lifts consist of the Squat (front, back, overhead, one-legged), Bench (flat, incline, dumbbell incline, towel, close-grip press), Clean (power, split, hang, clean pull), Hex (Trap) Bar (deadlift, shrugs). We did the following auxiliary lifts: Snatch (power, snatch pull), leg curl, leg extension, glute ham, straight-leg-deadlift, behind the neck press, push press, and lunges (front, side). We also did a lot of dot drills, flexibility work, plyometrics (primarily box jumps), and speed training. As you can see, we continually shocked the muscles through variety. We carefully monitored training loads, volume, order, tempo, and character of exercise. In short, we had a plan. Notice our test results for March 1998 (Table 2).<br>The 1998 season showed our young men what the BFS system - physical and mental - could produce. We finished third in a tough 3A region and made the state playoffs for the first time in 17 years. Two of our losses were by 1 point and 2 points. We were tied with the region champ with less than four minutes in the game before eventually losing. This year we will graduate 6 seniors. We have completed our second off-season and notice the results (Table 3).<br>Junior fullback and linebacker Brian Derrington says,  Before Coach Brown arrived, I never really lifted weights or wanted to. But since he put us through weight training, I have experienced and learned how important it is and how it can help me. <br>Junior tackle Brian Brasher states,  My attitude has changed a lot toward strength training. I now know what it takes to be successful. <br>Junior guard Jamey Fisher:  Strength training has become more important since Coach Brown arrived. It matters a whole lot more now. It takes on a whole new meaning. <br>Sophomore guard Ray Wyatt:  My thinking about training has changed. Coach Brown has encouraged us and showed us what we are able to do. For example, last year we made the playoffs. <br>Sophomore halfback and cornerback Anthony Webster:
