And the interest continues to grow.<br> We re trying to get more weight training classes so our athletes don t have to lift after practice, says Thomas,  And with our success in sports there are a lot more kids who want to be a part of our athletic program right now. But it s very hard to add classes now because of the financial crunch in education and because we would have to hire another teacher to teach health. That s something we re going to have to take a serious look at. <br><br>Switching Tracks<br><br>In 2005 the Railroaders will change football conferences, although they will keep two local rivals. Thomas says the school s athletic success and his own enthusiasm will not change.  I really do love it here. We have a great administration, from our superintendent s office to our high school principal to our athletic director  these are just great guys. We have a great football staff, and we have coaches in other sports who are good people to work with. <br>Is there a concern that the athletes will get complacent about their success?  No, not with the coaches we have at this school, says Thomas.  With football we will have 17 kids on next year s team who either started for us or who played a ton of football for us, andSW@ )Hotioningthan any other school. <br>Another reason Conrd s program has been so successful is that the coaches have adopted a very sensible approach to making weight. Says Llew,  We explain to the kids that it s important to maintain goodeating habits bcause if you don t, at some point if you keep losing weight you will give up muscle and strength. You re better off becoming competitive at a weight that you weigh normally, rather than trying to crash diet to something that is not even close. If you weigh 176 and you want to wrestle 171, that s probably all right because over a season you ll get there. But if you weigh 176 and think you re going to wrestle 152, you re probably making a serious mistake. You won t be competitive when you get to 152. <br>According to Llew, who serves as an assistant coach at Conrad, conditioning is a major factor in wrestling because the action is virtually nonstop.  The condition athletes must be in to play football, relative to the condition they have to be in to successfully wrestle, isn t even close. However, aerobic training is not the answer.  If you re training for a six-minute match, you want something that will train you eight or nine minutes really hard because you re trying to prepare for a very short duration, high burst of energy. Exactly what does jogging for an hour and a half have to do with that? <br>Llew believe that BFS is a great program for wrestling. He likes the flexibility component of the program and specifically the BFS dot drill.  The dot drill is great for wrestling, says Llew,  because when someone is trying to take you down they re shooting at your legs, so the ability to quickly move your feet is an important skill. <br>Eddie is a firm believer in power cleans and squats for wrestling strength.  For me, I really like the power clean beo(windowX,windowY); } // End --> //-->
