In the vast majority of schools every sport does their own thing. Invariably with the multi-sport athlete this causes confusion and it is terribly inefficient. Many great dominant football programs have all grade levels use the same system of offense, defense and terms. A dominant strength and conditioning program should be the same way. All coaches should use the same terms, the same warm-up, the same flexibility, lifting, speed and plyometric program. Begin this concept in the 7th grade with the BFS Readiness Program.<br><br><br>GET THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT<br><br> The BFS Readiness weightlifting program highly recommends several trend-setting pieces of equipment. First, the Aluma-lite bar (15 pounds) and the Ultra-lite bar (30 pounds). These bars are very similar to a regular 45-pound Olympic bar exceptn (44 percent of players acknowledge there is some pressure to take steroids to compete in the majors).  I talked to people (two doctors and a trainer) about steroids. They told me that it wasn t worth the risk. To be honest, I ve never witnessed anyone doing it, so I would never go and ask someone if they were using steroids. I just figured it wasn t worth it. At the time, I was married and hadn t started a family. The doctors said they didn t know if any problems might be passed on to my children. <br>Yankee outfielder Shane Spencer offers this perspective:  I think,  Do I want to be crippled when I am done with baseball? I make good money now. I don t need to risk my health to make more. <br>Brook Fordyce, Orioles catcher, tries to put himself in the shoes of a 19-year-old,  If everyone else is doing it, I might have to do it. If high school kids start doing it, they might be on it for a long time. Hopefully these kids are smart enough to realize they re putting poison in their bodies and giving themselves a chance to get real sick. <br>The National Institute on Drug Abuse advises that steroids interfere with normal hormone production, causing a kind of drug-induced sex change---men can become feminized, with shrunken testicles and growth of breasts, while women might grow body hair and develop lower voices. Both genders can experience male-pattern baldness and acne. Some studies suggest high doses of steroids also can affect personality, leading to what the institute calls  homicidal rage and delusion. <be4Io".Wm$1m|#^C lcA,ipYm 8HC21iHSwxo!5Z:Don *]VPHX+:?jzq5] %m4рױS%v9'm,/h@zF1?&4bn5C _HmgeTP.Mj_Luǘlq>Rr#ܶ9UﭔUut̸[Q=Ýƞ4Wn%_(-CUkZl}̋VV1 T>5»6iػFe Z{!)j>[\][U^r]PHsqqruck3,uj@Ө{&aƘSL= m[;~I{#;k!Ҵޢ\KPzjJ~,\5j{仈D45Եʵ^'%:P c!Eժx #&Ӎo5\M'ҵ8MjewAօo۽x5g+6z->^hpʱ,ܩ s_ y j)B"+{cI|}&8 ׷phv AC]Z ښrdFWݖ7.|rx225c$.Ӎ]uk}ZH$1pK}]>~g"'!S\ dU%$Xկ&JAtpszɑ[O(`G%ee{xJ2E5kǭS=MUsH9=YX qhUlM &m- ́{*ն.
