The Pirates, a Class D school, went on to beat two Class C schools in addition to four other schools in their division that would later qualify for the state playoffs. The Pirates themselves were back in the state playoffs again with a school record of 10 wins, before bowing out of the playoffs in game 11.<br>It was truly a great season for the Peck Pirates, one that began long before the opening kickoff. The time and commitment these young men made to work hard in the weight room and make themselves better players paid off. There is no doubt that in setting their goals high and having a positive attitude to reach them, the Peck Pirates were able to return to the place they wanted to be: league champions and in the state playoffs. Everyone at Peckis 100 percent committed to the belief that the BFS weight training program was instrumental in turning the team in the direction it needed to go. <br><br>Thanks for sharing your ots of potential with a good power level, but it is not fully converted at this point. As a young athlete still in the beginning phase of hammer throwing, she has a real shot at breaking the world record."<br>Weight training is very crucial to a thrower's success. Coach Kuusela explained, "the power clean is the most beneficial lift you can perform for the hammer throw, but remember, as a hammer thrower, she only trains with weights, to help benefit the throw."<br>So what is the key to Amy's success in the hammer throw? Many coaches and teammates claim she has great technique and I will agree to a point, but, the key comes from her great explosive power, which she has developed through training with heavy weights. Amy is the strongest female athlete I have ever met in my life. I watched her power clean 220 for 3 reps with perfect form as if it were nothing. Then we went over to te squat rack where she worked her way up to 410. She was just recovering from the flu and said she wasn't feeling that great, I can't imagine how she trains when she is feeling well and at total capacity. I was disappointed to hear from Coach Kuusela, that I had just missed watching her squat 520 for a new personal record, a few weeks ago. Since then, Amy has moved into a different training phase where she focuses on taking the brute strength that was gained from heavy weight lifting and incorporating it into throwing the 8.8 pound ball they call the hammer.<br>Amy loves to explode on the weights. Her favorite exercise is the power clean. Her best is 253 lbs.! Since her attention is focused on the hammer throw she doesn't bench press, but she has done 275 lbs.<br>Many athletes in this day and age have stumbled across road blocks in their lives, yet managed to overcome these trials to be labeled champions. Perhaps the rough and rocky road they have been forced to walk is what polished them
