Look how far her elbow and hand is behind her hip. Wow! This means she will run fast  really fast. Coaches, if you take a video of your athletes sprinting using a side angle, you will see what I mean. You will have mostly  pocket sprinters. However, once an athlete sees what he/she is doing wrong, you will have a decent chance of correcting this vital technique flaw. One excellent drill to practice a correct angle with a vigorous shoulder rotation is to do the Vigorous Sprint Drill. see Figure 11. It takes only 30 seconds. Sit and start with the elbows at a ninety-degree angle. If you start to be a pumper, you will hit your hands on the floor. Therefore, any athlete can overcome this flaw rather quickly. Now rotate your shoulders and arms as rapidly as possible. If you go really fast, your hips and buttocks will literally come up off the floor. This is a great drill.<br><br>6. Your wrists, fingers and hands should be loose. <br><br>Do not make a fist, as this will make you tight. See Figure 9. Tightness makes you slower. You need to always stay loose and relaxed while putting forth a maximum effort  not an easy thing to do, naturally. There are at least three acceptable methods of keeping your hands, fingers and wrists loose. See Figure 10. One method is to place the thumb on the middle finger (left photo). Another method is to keep the fingers straight but loose while trying to cut through the air like a knife (middle photo). The third option is to have floppy wrists (right photo) and execute a whipping action of the wrists. Study again the photos of our sprinters. Do their wrists, hands or fingers look tight?<br> <br><br>7. Your feet should make the initial plant directly under your hips, not out in front of your body. <br><br>A huge mistake that athletes often make when trying to run faster is to reach out with their lead leg in a futile attempt to increase their stride length. When you reach with the leg in front of your body, your heel will touch the ground first. This effectively puts on the brakes and you will actually run slower. You increase your stride length with the back leg drive. Yor equipment. The fitness center gets a tremendous amount of use from the Williams community. We ve talked about what needs to be done, but there are a lot of projects going on in the collegeand the administration tends to like to do one thing at a time.<br>BFS: Do you work with the regular faculty and the student body?<br>Brooks: Certainly, and I try to be as assessable as possible. I get a lot of requests for individual programs, but sometimes I just have to tell them I m just too busy and can only give them general guidelines. But, at the same time, we also have physical education classes for the student body, from beginning to advanced, to help these individuals. <br><br>BFS: Do you work will all the varsity sports?<br>Brooks: I try, and I ve even worked with JV and club sports. Also, I take a backup role with the football and lacrosse teams as they have their own primary strength coach. In fact, they use many aspects of the BFS program.<br><br>BFS: When you first came to Williams, were the students receptive to your training methods and how do they respond to what you are doing now?<br>Brooks: Most ofngth. BFS does not recommend deadlifting for junior high and beginning lifters, but for your mid-level lifters and heavy lifters you should get bars with a PSI of at least 135,000. For your extra-strong athletes who are closing in on a 700-pound squat, you will want to consider a bar with 185,000 PSI or more. <br>Special
