For 20 years Bob has been a teacher, football coach, and strength coach. He has tried unsuccessfully for many years to get a strength coaches position on the salary schedule.  Besides being a great program for our kids, it gives official recognition to the coaches and their commitment to our students, says Coach Jennings. Jerry Wheeler and Bob Jennings along with Doug Larish, Mark Swartz, and Walt Sword developed the proposal.  The Mesa Schools have given us a great opportunity, to work with all students and sports to enhance athletic performance, reduce the drop out rate, and promote community relations, says Coach Wheeler<br>Since the positions began in August, each school has been responsible for tracking the number of individuals using the weight room. Daily records have been kept of athlete and non-athletes, male and female, faculty, and staff usage and workouts per week and month. Most weight rooms are open before school, at lunch, 6th period, after school, and on Saturday. In September, the number of workouts that took place was over 12,000. In October, over 15,000 workouts occurred. In November, almost 17,000 workouts took place in the Mesa High Schools.<br>Obviously the numbers have shown that the strength coaches pilot program has been successful.  At Westwood, all students, athletes and non-athletes have the opportunity to maximize the results of their strength training efforts, due to the availability of highly skilled, knowledgeable, and certified strength coaches, says Harold Crenshaw, principal. The program now goes to the teacher s union, Mesa Educational Association, and the school board for consideration of permanent placement on the salary schedule. We are hopeful that the program will continue to serve our students, athletes, faculty, and staff and serve as a model for other high school strength coaches.<br>If you would like more information on the Mesa Strength Coaches proposal and program, you may contact either Walt Sword or Bob Jennings at Westwood High School. You may also contact Jerry Wheeler, at Mountain View, Doug Larish, at Mesa High, Mark Swartz, atSkyline, Steve Cerqua, at Red Mountain, or Steve Hogen, district athletic director for more information. <br> We are very excited about the strength coaching positions at our high schools, says Hogen.  This is an awesome example of what can be accomplished through a combined effort by quality instructors."get phenomenal results. I had 50 players run between 4.5 and 5.0 in the forty. That was 1970. Ca 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 fortyr the plyometric/sprint workot ends the intense activity of the class period followed by a slow jog and final stretch. Coach McGee exclaims, "the organization of the BFS program is what sets this program os Monday and Friday. It was a tremendous program that helped me form good habits thatI ve been able to build upon. <br>When asked if he wanted to rcognize any major influences on his success, Gizzi didn t hesitate to mention his high school coach, who he says was never too busy to help him with his off-season training.
