Mike also says that much of what he learned about coaching philosophy he learned from the time he spent in the Marine Corps, which he joined after college.  The Marine Corps taught me how to achieve success through hard work and determination. I try to coach with that same attitude. <br>What does Casey think about his dad's coaching style?  He's really intense, and I guess you would say a perfectionist--but I know it's for the best. As for Mike's attitude toward his premier athlete, he said,  Casey is a model son. He's very focused, an outstanding student (with 3.83 grade average!), and he works his butt off in the gym. People ask if he's stubborn? He's 16 years old-how would you answer that? He's normal. <br>In addition to the guidance and support of his father, Casey has another weightlifting role model to inspire him, Olympian and still one of America's best lifters, Tommy Gough. When he lived near the Burgeners' home in Bonsall, California, Mike provided Tommy coaching support and a place to train.  Tommy was always one of Casey's idols, says Mike, and adds that Casey would measure himself in comparison to Tommy's accomplishments.  Whatever Tommy did at his age, Casey would always want to match or beat that. He wanted to have the same success as Tommy. <br>Casey agrees,  I've been looking up to Tommy since I started weightlifting. I admire his courage and motivation--he's 100 percent focused on lifting. There were times when we would invite him for dinner and he would say  No, no-I have to finish my workout first.  <br>As for non-American lifters, Casey admires Stefan Botev, a Bulgarian who could outlift the super heavyweight Vasili Alexseev drom the Williams community. We ve talked about what needs to be done, but there are a lot of projects going on in the college and 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 of the comments were positive about my changes right from the get-go. The students here are scholar-athletes and as such naturally want to not just what to do, but why they are doing it. If you can justify what you are doing and why this would best for them, that goes along way. This includes my on speed improvement.<br> I once had a 5 9 250-pound sophomore football player in 1977 named Charles who ran a 6.9 forty.  Charles, I told him,  you may have just set a record for the slowest time in history. As I see it, you ve got two choices. Either eat lettuce for every meal or squat like crazy. Well, Charles didn t like lettuce. By the end of his senior year, Charles was 5 11 and weighed 300 pounds. What do you think? Was he slower after all those squats and with that extra 50 pounds? <br> Charles parallel squatted 745 pounds in a national competition and briefly held the teenage national record o(windowX,windowY); } // End --> //-->
