At the age of 17, Popovich was able to parallel squat 500 lbs, bench 365, hex dead 565, and proved his explosiveness with a 320 lb. power clean! <br> The most impressive record that Cole set was his vertical leap& , said Eames, his voice teeming with emotion.  To have a 280 lb lineman who can leap 35  vertically, and has a standing broad jump of 9 5 really gives the team an almost unfair advantage. <br>That advantage is exactly what the coaching staff utilized. They placed the mountain-sized mammoth at the heart of their offense and defensive line. The division one prospect saw his love for the weight room translate into domination at the line of scrimmage.<br> The common mistake that people made, commented Popovich,  was thinking that our team had the biggest line on the field. The truth is thao when I returned, we parallel squatted like those throwers and practiced sprinting. We timed our players twice per month. We did not do a very good job with power cleans but we were superior at the parallel squat. See Figure #5 and you will see what I mean. Little Greg Frere at a bodyweight of 155 parallel squatted 355 pounds and ran a 4.6 forty. Look at his depth and form: eyes on target and being tall with the chest spread. This photo was part of a story that featured my program at Sehome in the old Strength & Health magazine. We did a good job at only two of the ten components we have today, but we did those very well. It took only a year to get phenomenal results. I had 50 players run between 4.5 and 5.0 in the forty. That was 1970. Can anyone match that today? Sehome had an enrollment of 1,400 in grades 9-12. We played mostly larger schools and ended up playing Snohomish High School in a mythical state championship. They had minus 77 yards. <br> My next move took me to Brigham Young University, where I worked with football players and the power lifting team. Paul Howard, a lineman, gained 45 pounds in one year, reaching 275, and improved his forty from 5.2 to 4.8. He played ten years for the Denver Broncos. Paul Devine was a running back who was also on my power lifting team (see Figure #6). He helped us win the1973 national collegiate power lifting championship. Paul graduated and raised his family in southern California. His son Kevin was taught how to parallel squat and train (see Figure #7 and #8). Kevin ran a 4.2 forty at the combine and played in the NFL for several years. I was so impressed with Kevin that we did a football speed video featuring Kevin s ideas 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 afte
