What distinguishes him from other strength coaches?<br>Brooks: What doesn t distinguish him! Charles has influenced me more than anyone out there, from truly understanding proper rest intervals, to tempo, to the pairing of exercises. A big part of what distinguishes him is his ability to truly analyze an athlete and figure out their strengths and weaknesses. He doesn t take a hockey player and say,  These are the movements in hockey, but rather,  What does this individual need? What are the things we need to do as far as balancing an athlete out, regardless of what sport they do? <br><br>BFS: Do you think a lot of strength coaches are caught up with trends, such as now with the emphasis on core training?<br>Brooks: A lot of coaches out there have gotten caught up in gimmicky stuff and truly don t know how to get an athlete strong. They seem to have lost touch with the idea that if an athlete is stronger, he or she is less likely to get injured and is going to perform better.<br><br>BFS: How would you describe your weightroom?<br>Brooks: I have to start by staying that you re not going to find a better weightroom anywhere. Equipment-wise we have exactly what we need, keeping in mind that I also had to address the student body s needs as well. That s because the philosophy of the college is that anything we have can be used by all, so we don t have an athlete s weightroom. <br><br>BFS: Can you give me some specifics?<br>Brooks: On the main floor we have eight platforms with cages and benches that allow an athlete to bench, squat, chin and perform Olympic lifting exercises. We also have machines on the upper deck, thick-handled dumbbells from 5 to 150 pounds in 2 -pound increments, four BFS mega-hex bars, and we have a couple of large crossover pieces.<br><br>BFS: Do you usually have three athletes per platform?<br>Brooks: Yes, that works out pretty well with teams. We could probably go four on a platform if necessary.<br><br>BFS: How many student-athletes can be training in your facility at one time?<br>Brooks: We could probably fit 24 people on the platforms, so we can handle a lot of teams because you re not going to find many teams much bigger than that  certainly not a basketball team.<br><br>BFS: What s the approximate square footage?<br>Brooks: About 5,300 square feet.<br><br>BFS: Are there plans to build a bigger weightroom?<br>Brooks: The room needs to be bigger to allow for more machines, platforms and other equipment. The fitness center gets a tremendous amount of use from the Williams community. We ve taesistance training.
